日本の食卓事情２

日本では外食（がいしょく）は高（たか）いし、栄養（えいよう）が偏（かたよ）るから自炊（じすい）が一番（いちばん）良（よ）いと考（かんが）える人が多い気がする。あっさりしたメニューの次（つぎ）の日は味（あじ）の濃（こ）い献立（こんだて）にしたり、和食（わしょく）が続（つづ）けば、中華（ちゅうか）料理（りょうり）や韓国（かんこく）料理・イタリアン風（ふう）など様々（さまざま）な国（くに）の料理も作（つく）ったり、色（いろ）んな料理を作るために家（いえ）に常備（じょうび）している調味料（ちょうみりょう）の種類（しゅるい）もかなり多い。料理好（ず）きなら分かるが、料理することが苦痛（くつう）なら作らなければいいのに、なぜここまで頑張（がんば）るのか。

日本の食卓事情２【全３話】

Los vocablos y las frases propias del lenguaje taurino Los vocablos y las frases propias del lenguaje taurino se han introducido sigilosamente en el español coloquial.

La lengua oral ha interiorizado de tal forma estos términos, que, en muchas ocasiones, los propios hispanohablantes no conocen ni el origen ni el primer significado de los términos.  

El desarrollo del toreo en la Península Ibérica ha generado toda una cultura en relación a la lidia y, por supuesto, un vocabulario y una terminología específicas.  En la actualidad, muchísimas frases hechas del español provienen de la jerga taurina y forman parte del lenguaje coloquial.
 Se trata de palabras y expresiones que han pasado desde el mundo del toro al lenguaje común de la calle; casi siempre, en forma de metáforas, y muy frecuentemente para hacer alusión a problemas o situaciones complicadas. 

Espero que os guste, me parece un tema muy interesante de saber y aprender. A mí también me paso la primera vez que las escuche. 

Te veo muy pronto. 
GRACIAS

Lily's Chinese 对话

20240213高尔基致罗曼罗兰的信

Чем больше мы имеем, тем больше мы хотим. 

Ты со мной? 

Чем больше мы имеем..

Passengers flying on some routes could have to spend almost $80 more to help European airlines pay for sustainable fuels.

According to European Union (EU) rules, airlines will have to use more sustainable fuel starting in January. Two percent of the fuel they use will have to be sustainable in 2025, but that will increase to 6% in 2030 and 70% in 2050.

This is part of the EU's plan to reduce carbon emissions, with the airline industry said to produce 2% of the world's carbon emissions.

However, sustainable fuels are much more expensive than normal jet fuel, and German airline Lufthansa has announced that travelers will have to pay more for flights leaving on or after January 1, 2025.

Lufthansa said it spends billions every year on new technologies, and has been working to help make flying more sustainable. It added that it has also supported research into global weather and climate, but that it can't pay for sustainable fuels without help from customers.

Passengers will have to pay extra on any flight leaving from any EU country, as well as from Norway, Switzerland and the UK.

Any flights booked for 2025 from now on will include the extra cost, and customers flying on any Lufthansa-operated airline will have to pay. The Lufthansa group also operates Eurowings, Austrian Airlines, Swiss Air, Brussels Airlines and Lufthansa City Airlines.

People taking short-haul flights in economy class may only need to pay about $5 more, according to Reuters, while those flying long-haul in first class could pay almost $80.

Many other airlines have said they won't be increasing prices, but they want governments to do more to help them.
