Today’s dialog
初めてフラダンスに挑戦するカートが、ルル先生に心得を質問しています。
Kurt: Ms. Lulu, this is my first time to try hula dancing. What should I keep in mind?
Lulu: I’d like you to use your imagination. In hula dancing, the movements have to represent things in nature.
Kurt: How’s this?
Lulu: I need you to do it more slowly. Otherwise, it won’t look like a wave.
Kurt: This isn’t as easy as it looks!
Lulu: That’s true, but you’re getting the hang of it.
Kurt: Thanks, but don’t post any videos of me on social media.
