TALK or SPEAK

Pépète, le lapin
- Quand j’étais petit, raconte Pépète le lapin, ma maman m’a un jour demandé d’aller chercher six carottes dans le champ d’à côté.
En faisant des petits sauts, j’y suis allé. Hop ! hop ! hop ! Pas de danger à droite ? Rien à gauche ? Hop ! hop ! hop !
J’ai arraché les carottes et je suis rentré à toute vitesse à la maison. Maman s’est mise à crier. J’en avais pris beaucoup trop ! Il n’y avait plus de place dans la cuisine ! Ce n’est pas ma faute, je ne sais pas compter jusqu’à six !

大家好，您正在收听中文播客《丹霞说》，我是丹霞。你知道“笑一笑，十年少”吗？

        “笑一笑，十年少”，这是中国人常常说的一句话，意思是笑有很大的作用，笑一笑会让人年轻很多。
        只有常常笑，才能使自己年轻，不容易变老。所以我们每天都应该在工作、学习中，多想想高兴的事儿，多做做能让自己开心的事儿，试着让自己更快乐。
        所以，今天你笑了吗？

少 [shào] young
作用 zuòyòng  affect ; function
让 ràng  let; make
年轻niánqīng  young
应该yīng gāi should; ought to; must
事儿shì er  matter; affair, thing; business
试 shì  to try  

"Smile, ten years younger" is a saying often used by Chinese people, which means that laughter has a great effect, and a smile will make people younger. Laughing often can we make ourselves younger and not grow old easily. So we should think more about happy things, do more things that can make us happy, and try to make ourselves happier in our work and study every day.

So, did you laugh today?

I just came up with one thought while watching this movie. 
“This is why we learn history!”
Not only does this movie describe Korean history very well, but it also introduces both positions unbiased.
Especially, I love watching the debate between the two main characters. 
What would you choose? 
It is a movie where you can learn the history and wisdom of lives!

이 영화를 보면서 제가 느낀 점은 딱 하나였어요. 
“이래서 우리가 역사를 배워야 하는구나!”
한국 역사를 아주 잘 묘사하면서도 두 입장을 치우침 없이 공평하게 소개한 명작입니다. 
특히, 두 배우의 토론이 아주 멋진데요.
당신이라면 어느 쪽을 선택할건가요?
역사를 배우고, 인생의 지혜를 배울 수 있는 영화!


그거 봤어? Did you watch it?

Die deutschen Dialekte

(A)  Grob geschätzt gibt es in Deutschland etwa 20 Dialekte. Wenn man allerdings genau hinsieht, sind es erheblich mehr, denn die einzelnen Mundarten lassen sich kaum voneinander ABGRENZEN. 
(B)  Es ist jedoch eine Tatsache, dass der Bewohner Hamburgs im Norden den Münchner im Süden nur mit Mühe versteht und dass der Württemberger für einen Film, in dem Plattdeutsch gesprochen wird, vermutlich Untertitel braucht. 

(C)  Sprachforscher beklagen, dass die Dialekte zugunsten des Hochdeutschen mehr und mehr in Vergessenheit geraten. Das ist schade, denn ein Dialekt hat reiche Ausdrucksformen, die auch die Kultur seiner Sprecher WIDERSPIEGELN. Leider ist dieser Niedergang im Zeitalter der Medien und der großen Mobilität der Bevölkerung kaum noch aufzuhalten.

(D)  Interessanterweise stellte sich bei einer UMFRAGE heraus, dass mehr als ein Viertel der Deutschen das „Bayerische“ gerne hört, während „Sächsisch“ auf dem letzten Platz der Beliebtheitsskala der Dialekte landete.
