Your name on it. What does it mean?
We will find out, okay? So let's look at my
example. Now here's what I sometimes hear:
So let's imagine I'm talking to my
colleague, Taro, and I say: Taro,
I've heard there's a new project.
And Taro says:
Yes, it's for you.
Very simple. OK, this
sentence has no problem,
"it's for you."
The project is yours -- your project. But it
just sounds a little too simple, a little
bit boring, right? It's for you. Okay so
how can we make this sentence a little
bit more exciting? It's for you! This
project is for you! Okay, well we can use
this phrase. Here we go. So if I say: Taro,
I've heard there's a new project.
And Taro says:
Yes, it has your name on it.
Then, I'll feel very excited. Wow a new project for me?
Perfect. Okay, it has your name on it.
Of course my name is not on the
project but he is just saying "this
project is for you." It's a more exciting
way to say that. OK so let's look at
pronunciation, so it's:
Yes, -- with a pause --
Yes, it has your name onit -- onit...
it has your name onit.
Yes, it has your name on it. You try.
Perfect. Okay with my sentence:
I've heard there's a new project.
Wow, great! Perfect. Okay? So you can use this
at your office or in your daily life,
okay? If you want to say "yes, it's for you"

OK, so please remember this. For homework, so if someone says:

That's right. Yes, it has your
name on it. Please remember this and
we'll see you next time.
