ヒカルの碁、いいよね！

大家好，我是Honglin老师，欢迎来到我的汉字频道。
这是我的第二条推送。今天要和你们分享的是，“口”字，一家五口人的“口”，吃饭和说话会用到的“口”，或者说，我们的嘴巴。

口，是一个象形字，它的形状长得就像我们的嘴巴。最开始的“口”，是一个圆形，就像我们说“啊”的时候，嘴巴张开的样子。而且两边的竖很长，看起来就像一个英文字母的H，只不过最下面还有一横。后来圆的慢慢变成方的，两边的竖也变短，就变成了现在的“口”，就像一个正方形。“口”这个字，是汉字里变化最小的字之一，也是一些字的偏旁，表示和嘴巴相关的动作或者物品。比如，“吃”，吃东西的吃，就是用的“口”字旁。

那含有“口“字的词语也很多，今天给大家分享一个网络用语，“口嗨”。

“嗨“你可以理解成英文的“high“，兴奋的意思。口嗨的意思就是虽然话说得很漂亮，说可以做或者要做一件事，听起来很兴奋，但是行动上却做不到，说到却做不到。比如，你有一个朋友天天和你说，“哎呀，下次来我的城市，一定要告诉我，我带你玩，我带你吃好吃的，保证你满意“。但等你真的到了他那里，他说的这些要带你做的事，一件也没做。那你就可以说，“哎，他只是口嗨啦“。

二：“口”为什么这样写&“口嗨”

Buona fine e buon inizio a tutti!!! Ci avviciniamo all'ultimo giorno dell'anno, Capodanno (Il capo dell'anno? Colui che comanda l'anno o il punto più alto dell'anno???....Boh!!!). Ad ogni modo, un buon momento per voltarci a guardare alle spalle e osservare cosa abbiamo fatto durante quest'anno che volge ormai al termine; e una buona opportunità per prefissarci degli obiettivi per il prossimo anno che sta per iniziare. Buon ascolto a tutti, ma soprattutto buona fine e buon inizio!

Today, I want to tell you all about emotional support chickens. It seems that a nursing home here in the UK has been offered chickens by a local school in order to take away the loneliness of it’s residents and help them feel better.

Nursing Homes and Care Homes are places where we put older people who cannot look after themselves.

It's hoped that the chickens will bring residents a number of benefits. From fostering a sense of community to reducing mental health problems. Now, I'm not sure about you but for me, I'd probably rather have the cash or if  there’s perhaps other opportunities, maybe I’d prefer to talk to someone. These chickens don't actually have to be bought.It looks like they were given free to this nursing home. 

But still, if they're going to give away chickens, I'd rather have the cash.
