Podcast para niveles intermedios y avanzados que quieren mejorar comprensión, fluidez y vocabulario.

Español con Sentido – Conversaciones reales y cercanas

こんにちは、Mikaです。
このポッドキャストでは私の日々の出来事を通して、日本語をより身近に
楽しく感じてもらえたら嬉しいです。
短い間ですがリラックスした気分でどうぞお付き合いください。

さて今日は日本の伝統行事 "七五三" についてお話しします。
１１月の中旬ごろに行うこの文化は、平安時代という今から1000年ほど前の
日本で始まりました。
３歳・５歳・７歳の子供たちの儀式なので "七五三" と言われており
子供の成長を祝い、長く生きることや幸せを願って今も続いています。

３歳では男の子と女の子が赤ちゃんから子供に成長し、長生きを願うためにお祝いをします。
５歳では男の子が小さな子供からひとりの立派な少年に成長するためにお祝いをします。
７歳では女の子が大人の女性へ成長するためにお祝いをします。

昔は今と違って子供の死亡率がとても高かったため、
この伝統行事が作られ、日本人は大切にしてきました。
３歳・５歳・７歳の子供たちはこの時期になると七五三のために可愛い着物を着て
神社でお参りをします。
もし日本の神社へ行くことがあれば、可愛い着物の子供たちを見られるかもしれないですね。
そして七五三についてもっと深く学びたい人は是非私の日本の歴史のレッスンを予約してみてください。

それでは今日も笑顔の多い一日を！またね～

IELTS speaking fears

What are they? Here are some students' comments over the internet:

"Honestly my greatest fear in IELTS is the speaking section. I’ve taken the exam 6 times already since 2014 without hitting my target score of 7. My speaking score is consistently 6.5 throughout the exams. My nervousness really gets overwhelming with my failure. Just a mere mention of IELTS makes me cringe. I feel so hurt and phobic of the exam."

Imagine this, right?

As I said in the podcast, hard skills (preparing for the questions) aren't the only thing students need to prepare for.

Mental training, calming down, breathing exercises, and learning to cool down are some techniques you can take to elevate your score.

If it sounds new and you simply haven't heard of it, use it, and it will be a HUGE assistance for your WHOLE life.

Dive into my harmonising meditation I did earlier to learn to relax more.

Be well and let me know how I can help you.

大家好，我是Yuli。欢迎收听我的播客。
今天我们来聊一聊【疫情】的话题。
中国的疫情是2019年底开始的。我记得那一年的春节，我回了老家。每天在电视上看到武汉疫情的报道，觉得很难过。假期结束后要回广州上班，一路上戴着口罩，有点害怕。每天进公司和进小区都要测体温。外卖只能送到小区门口，自己去拿，也不可以在饭店里吃饭。
疫情不太严重的时候，我们的生活正常一点，但是去外面也要戴口罩。有一段时间国内没有疫情，国内旅游也正常了。但是因为有国外回来的人，很难一直都是正常的。如果一个地方出现新的疫情，很多人都要去做核酸。严重的时候，这个地方所有的人都要去做核酸。
时间过得很快，疫情已经两年多了。虽然我们已经习惯了戴口罩的生活，但是它真的改变了我们的生活。
最大的改变是很多东西都发展为线上了。特别是疫情严重的时候，大家只能在家里。于是上班族开始在家办公，学生开始上网课。因为不能去健身房，很多人买了健身的东西，在家里健身。因为不能出去吃饭，很多人都是用手机叫外卖，或者开始学习做饭。因为不能像以前一样出去旅游，这几年野餐和露营的人越来越多。野餐和露营不需要去很远的地方，买一些食物，就可以和家人朋友一起去玩了。
疫情对经济的影响是最大的。商店的生意变得很差，因为只要有疫情影响，他们很可能就得关门。换工作的人比以前少了，因为经济不好，工作不好找。更多的大学毕业生选择了考研和考公务员，因为更稳定。
你们国家的疫情怎么样呢？疫情改变了你的生活吗？留言告诉我吧。我们下期见。
