Imagine a new colour! Okay, that's impossible. But it is possible to change the way you perceive a colour... just by calling it a different name.
In our first ever episode we explore the question of how language influences thought. And in this video, Guillaume Thierry - our expert on the topic, gives a brilliant example of this.

Self introduction!  

Hello to all of you! I’m Ann, and I was born in a town in Iloilo, about 30 kilometers away from the city. Our home was surrounded by a small coffee plantation, with trees like mango, coconut, cacao, and many other tropical or native fruits — it really felt like paradise! We also had plenty of animals around — chickens, geese, ducks, goats, pigs, cows, and even a carabao — and a small rice field. That was my childhood — simple, yet full of joy and natural beauty.

Now, I carry those memories and stories with me here on the podcast Ma-HILIGAYNON Ta!

I still clearly remember how we used to walk about 3 kilometers just to get to school when my siblings and I were in elementary. It was only when I got to high school that we moved closer to the highway. During the rainy season, we’d walk barefoot through rice paddies and small streams, carrying our school shoes and supplies. We would wash our muddy feet in a little stream beside the road before waiting for our favorite tricycle driver to pass by and take us to school.

You know, it’s only now that I realize how tough that was — but back then, it all felt like fun. I never even thought of it as difficult, especially for young schoolgirls like me.

We had a very loyal dog — his name was Burgo. He looked like he came from a police breed, maybe part German Shepherd mixed with a native dog. He was a gift from my grandfather. He was my companion through every silly adventure and farm chore.

Want to hear more of my stories? Just follow my podcast! Let’s keep talking — see you in Ma-HILIGAYNON Ta! This is Ann — padayon lang, abyan (keep going, friend).

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

ぼくの日常生活の話を聞くことで、日本語のリスニングをよくしたり、新しい言葉を知ってもらえたらいいなと思います。


みなさんお元気でしょうか。
今日もジョージアでPodcastを録っています。

今年もあっという間に4月になりましたね！
早いですね！

時間が流れるのが早いことを、
光陰矢の如し
と表現します。

これはことわざです。
光ー太陽
陰ー月
弓矢の矢が飛ぶように早い、あっという間
という意味です。

さて、世界では10月始まりのことが多いかもしれませんが、日本では4月始まりのことが多いです。

例えば、学校や会社がそうです。

日本では、4月に学校が一斉にはじまります。
だいたい4/8ぐらいに始業式があります。

始業式は学期が始まる日です。
学期ーsemester
です。

日本の学校では、
1学期(4〜7月)
2学期(9〜12月)
3学期(1〜3月)
があります。
　
日本の会社では、4月から新しい年度がはじまります。
毎年4月に新入社員が入るので、入社式もあります。

このように日本では、
学校や会社が4月から新しい学年、年度などがはじまります。

なので、4月は新しい気持ちになったり、新しいことを始めたくなるシーズンです。

ぼくは、
英語の勉強と、
世界遺産の勉強を
がんばろうと思います！

みなさんは何かがんばっていることや、
新しくはじめたいことはありますか？

よかったら、オンラインレッスンで話しましょう！
italkiでお待ちしています！



ということで、今回は以上です。

最後まで聞いていただき、ありがとうございます！
ではまた！
