A very interesting talk, looking at the complex phenomenon of love from the perspective of science, and trying to understand what is really happening which makes us feel such strong feelings.

В этом подкасте рассказываю о том, что такое междометие (это не сложно) и привожу примеры самых популярных слов этой части речи.

Привет, это Наташа!

Эпизод 37. Междометия. Спасибо! Ой! Фу!

Fake things in K-pop, Don't believe their marketing

Simon Fowler: So what do you think you will have to eat?

Eduardo Gonzales: I know you said the barbecue is good and it does look fantastic, but I see they also have curry here.

Simon Fowler: Yes, they do. It’s really good. You see there are 12 different kinds. The one at the bottom is very mild and as they go up, they get more and more spicy. The one at the top - well, phew! It’s really tasty, but a little too hot for me. There’s a lot of garlic in it, so if you choose that, you need to be brave. And you may not be popular on the plane home tomorrow (laughs).

Eduardo Gonzales: (Laughs) I do like a strong curry though. What I do is I order a dish of yogurt to go with it. It’s nice and thick and cool so if I feel it’s too spicy, I can eat some or add it to my curry to cool it down.

Simon Fowler: That’s a really good idea. I might try that in future.

Eduardo Gonzales: I also like the sound of the cheeseburger, but at the same time, I could have a good cheeseburger in a lot of places.

Simon Fowler: Oh, it’s really special here though. They bake the burgers for a little which makes them taste really good, and then they fry them quickly in olive oil. There are a lot of restaurants where they just put it in the microwave and it tastes terrible.

Eduardo Gonzales: The only thing I used a microwave for is heating up my coffee when I have left it too long. I don’t think you should ever use one for food.

Simon Fowler: Well, here comes the waitress, so it’s decision time.

こんにちは！
Japanese daily life podcast のAtsushiです。
このPodcastは、日本語を勉強しているみなさんに向けたPodcastです。


今日は、僕が作った日本語学習のための本について話します。

僕は日本語のレッスンをしている時に、言葉の使い方やちがいを説明する時によく例文を使います。例文を使うと、わかる人が多いです。

それで、例文がたくさんある日本語の本を作ろうと思いました。

今までで5冊作りました。
名詞
動詞
数字
語句
関西弁

それぞれたくさんの例文を載せました。

例文がたくさんあると使い方がわかりやすいです。
それをみて、自分の例文を作るのもいいと思います。

Kindle Unlimitedのサービスに入っている人は無料で読むことができます。

これからも本はたくさん作ろうと思います。
Podcastももちろんほとんど毎日作っていきますね！
