上記の（コピペしての）回答に対してChat GPTからの次の質問が

Kubo's dribbling skills are indeed impressive and make for exciting viewing. Do you have any favorite matches or memorable moments of Kubo's performances?

と返ってきたので、

Actually, it's a very good question. So I'd say the game against Atletico Madrid when Kubo was in Majorca was memorable game. I don't remember if he got a goal in that game, but he dribbled past very good defenders of Atletico Madrid, which is famous for good defense.

と返しました。

That sounds like a thrilling match to watch! Kubo's ability to take on strong defenses like Atletico Madrid's is definitely impressive. Are there any other players you enjoy watching or any other memorable matches that stand out to you?

と返ってきたので、

Well, Kodai Sano would be another football player who I like. Actually, he is playing in a professional football league in Netherlands, and we don't have many opportunities to watch football matches of Netherlands league. But he was transferred to the Dutch team before he became 20 years old, and still he is providing good performance in the league. So it's impressive, and I really would like to watch more matches of him.

と返しました。さらに

Kodai Sano's journey to the Dutch league at such a young age is indeed impressive. His performance there must be inspiring to many. Have you found any highlights or clips of his games online, or do you follow his progress through other means?

と返ってきましたが、きりがないのでQ&Aは一旦ここで打ち切ります。

また、ぜひそれらの表現の中から自分のパーソナリティに一番合っているものを重点的に意識して覚えられてください。

普段日本語を話しているときでも私たち日本語ネイティブ話者が話す日本語は人それぞれで、同様に英語を話す際も自分というパーソナリティをだしていくことはアメリカ・アクセントやイギリス・アクセントを練習することよりも大事だと筆者は思います。

こちらの記事ではChat GPTとのQ&Aセッションで自分が話した内容の文法チェックとより多くの表現を学習する方法についてご紹介しましたが、その学習には一定の時間を割かないといけなくなってしまうことから、基礎レベルや初級を目指す段階ではこちらのトレーニングはほどほどにしてまずは実際に話している時間を多めに確保するようにして、中級を目指す段階以降はこちらの文法や表現といったより細かい点も深く理解をしていくかたちで大丈夫かと思っています。
