Welcome! I’m delighted to present to you 111 Tips for Learning a Language. Here is our tip for today. The first tip is to learn in a way which is most comfortable to you. You yourself decide how and what you want to learn. Well, be creative! There is no one right way to learn a language. Everyone is a unique individual and thus they have different interests when it comes to learning. Some students like to dive straight into informal conversation while others prefer to learn in a more systematic way using a textbook. Some students, like myself included, start by learning vocabulary. I take great pleasure in making flash cards for myself when I’m learning a language. When we learn in a manner which we enjoy we would definitely be more disciplined to keep it up. Ideally learning for ourselves should be fun and relaxing while stimulating at the same time with just the right oomph factor to keep us wanting to know more. Therefore, I urge you to learn in a way which makes you feel most at ease. Till our next tip and I wish you Inspired Learning with 111 Tips for Learning a Language.

Une révolution commerciale_dictée_transcription

UNE RÉVOLUTION COMMERCIALE 

Dictée

Les villes constituent un centre d’échanges très important. Vers les années mille, le grand commerce se limitait au trafic de produits de luxe réservés à une minorité de riches. Mais en l’espace de trois siècles, du 11e au 13e, les matières premières, les produits alimentaires et les objets fabriqués apparaissent sur le marché et deviennent indispensables à des groupes sociaux plus larges, tels que, par exemple, la bourgeoisie urbaine. On parle alors d'une révolution commerciale. 

Les produits agricoles (principalement le vin et les céréales) et artisanaux (le plus souvent textiles) sont échangés dans des foires locales, puis acheminés vers des foires plus importantes.

Les foires se multiplient dans certaines régions françaises animées par le commerce international : la Flandre, l’Île-de-France, la Champagne. Toutes ces activités artisanales et commerciales s'organisent petit à petit au sein des corporations.

These various expressions for affirmation encompass a wide range of tones and levels of formality. In everyday conversation, a simple "yes" or "yeah" suffices, and a touch of informality may be added with "sure" or "absolutely." When assurance is absolute, phrases like "without a doubt, yes" and "most definitely" leave no room for ambiguity. In informal settings, a resounding agreement might be expressed with "you bet" or "hell yeah," and a casual "totally" or "yup" carries a similar sentiment. For matters necessitating decorum, a formal approach may entail phrases like "I wholeheartedly agree" or "indeed," while "I concur" and "affirmative" maintain a level of professionalism. Politeness sweetens the agreement in expressions such as "I'd be happy to" and "that sounds wonderful," demonstrating eagerness to comply. A touch of wit adds a layer of humor to the affirmation, as seen in expressions like "in a New York minute" or "is the Pope Catholic?" In more refined circles, the upper class might communicate their agreement with endearing phrases like "absolutely, my dear" or "most assuredly," maintaining a level of warmth. For royalty, an affirmation is conveyed with grace and respect, as in "by all means, Your Majesty" or "it would be my honor, Your Highness," underscoring the formal nature of the response. Ultimately, the choice of expression hinges on the context and the level of decorum required for the situation at hand.

大家好，我是Yuli。这是我在italki的第一期播客，很高兴可以跟你一起分享。在我的频道，我会分享各种主题的闲谈。内容大概是1到2分钟，文稿会放在每一集播客下面。希望对你的中文学习有所帮助，那我们开始吧。
今天想和大家聊一聊睡眠的话题。
你是早睡早起的人，还是夜猫子呢？夜猫子，大家看晚上的猫是不是经常不睡觉，在外面玩儿呢？所以夜猫子就是指晚上不想睡觉、喜欢熬夜的人。那早上不想起床怎么说呢？睡懒觉。懒就是lazy的意思。
晚上熬夜的时候，你一般是在做什么呢？有的人是在加班，有的人是在学习，有的人是在打游戏，还有的人是想睡但是睡不着。这个我们叫失眠。你会失眠吗？我有时候会失眠。如果白天喝了太多茶，或者晚上工作到太晚，我的大脑非常清醒，那我就失眠了。失眠的时候你会怎么办呢？躺在床上等着睡着，还是玩手机，还是起来工作或者学习呢？我发现，失眠的时候起来看书，过一会儿就犯困了，自然就可以入睡了。
你的睡眠怎么样呢？留言告诉我吧。我们下期见。

夜猫子	yè māo zi	night owl (people who sleeps very late)
熬夜	áo yè	stay up late
睡懒觉	shuì lǎn jiào	sleep in/ sleep late (in the morning)
失眠	shī mián	Insomnia
清醒	qīng xǐng	wide awake
犯困	fàn kùn	feel sleepy
