I'll talk about how to say ' I want ice cream naturally. You'll learn how to use ' V고 싶다' Vs  'N 원하다'  in this episode.  *V :verb  *N:noun
To say 'to want' 'V고 싶다' is more commonly used in everyday conversations. Whereas 'N 원하다' is not that frequently used because it is more poetic, formal, and literate.

I want to go there. 거기 가고 싶어요.  *거기 there  가다 * to do
I want to eat it.        그거 먹고 싶어요.  *그거 that thing  *먹다 to eat
I want to sleep.        (잠)  자고 싶어요.  *(잠) 자다 to sleep
I want to dance.            춤 추고 싶어요.  *춤 추다 to dance

I want ice cream.        아이스크림 먹고 싶어요.
I want ice water.        시원한 물 마시고 싶어요.   *시원한 물 ice water *마시다 to drink
I want a new iPhone.  새 아이폰 사고 싶어요.     *새 아이폰 new iPhone  *사다 to buy
--------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
I want world peace.  세계 평화를 원해요.  *세계 평화 World peace
I want love.                  사랑을 원해요.           *사랑 love

"WHEN YOU'RE PLAYING YOUR GUITAR, MAKE BELIEVE YOU'RE PLAYING AN ACTUAL WOMAN," MISTER MANCINI TOLD ME. "GRAB HER BY THE NECK AND MAKE HER HOLLER."

My father loves jazz and has an extensive collection of records and reel-to-reel tapes he used to enjoy after returning home from work. He might have entered the house in a foul mood, but once he had his Dexter Gordon and a vodka martini, the stress melted away and everything was "Beautiful, baby, just beautiful." The instant the needle hit that record, he'd loosen his tie and become something other than the conservative engineer with a pocketful of IBM pencils embossed with the command think.

"Man, oh man, will you get a load of the chops on this guy? I saw him once at the Blue Note, and I mean to tell you that he blew me right out of my chair! A talent like that comes along only once in a lifetime. The guy was an absolute comet, and there I was in the front row. Can you imagine that?"

"Gee," I'd say. "I bet that was really interesting."

Empathy was the wrong tack, as it seemed only to irritate him.

"You don't know the half of it," my father would say. " 'Really interesting' my butt. You haven't got a clue. You could have taken a hatchet and cut the man's lips right off his face, chopped them off at the quick, and he still would have played better than anyone else out there. That's how good he was."

Because it was the music we'd grown up with, I liked to think that my sisters and I had a genuine appreciation for jazz. We preferred it over the music our friends were listening to, yet nothing we did or said could convince him of our devotion. Aside from replaying the tune on your own instrument, how could you prove you were really listening? It was as if he expected us to change color at the end of each selection.

나무가 쓰러졌어요

Estoy en mi terraza y se me vienen a la mente la cara de mis estudiantes de inmersión. Imágenes de ellos interactuando con gente local, comprando comida en el mercadillo, disfrutando de las actividades que había tanto fuera como dentro de la casa... es decir, usando el idioma. 
Automáticamente lo comparo con las caras y gestos de mis antiguos estudiantes de las escuelas de idiomas dónde he trabajado, y realmente hay mucha diferencia. Entonces, me vienen estas preguntas a la cabeza ¿Qué no se nos enseña en las escuelas?¿Qué tal de confidente y capacitado estoy cuando se termina el curso de una academia o instituto?
