Ciboulet et l'ascenseur 
Le grand-père de Ciboulet vit au huitième étage d’un bel immeuble. Ciboulet aime bien l'appartement de son grand-père: quand le petit ours regarde par la fenêtre, les gens sur le trottoir paraissent tout petits!
Un après-midi, son grand-père propose:
- Si nous allions nous promener?
- Oh oui, s'écrie le petit ours. 
Le grand-père prend les clefs et ajoute:
- Pendant que je ferme la porte, appelle l'ascenseur!
Alors Ciboulet va sur le palier et crie:
- Ascenseur! Ascenseur!

〈#165〉スキーの記録会

There are only six vowels in stressed position: [а], [о], [у], [э], [и], [ы]. 

The Russian hard consonants correspond to the English consonants.
However, the Russian consonant /п / resembles the English /р / but it is never aspirated. The consonant [t ] is also never aspirated.

Don’t forget that in the articulation of the Russian /т /, /д /, /н / the tip of the tongue is pressed against the teeth ridge but against the back of the upper incisors!

ма - мэ - мо - му - мы

前回のエピソードで「休み」の重要な使い方を説明するのを忘れていました。前回のエピソードをまだ聞いていない人は後で聞いてみてください。

「今日私は休みです。」皆さんはこの文の意味がわかりますか？これは「今日私は仕事がありません。」という意味です。
アルバイトをしている人は「バイトがない」「シフトがない」という意味です。
何かの理由があって仕事に行かなかった場合には「今日学校を休んでいます」「昨日仕事を休みました」と言います。
仕事の予定がなかった場合は「今日は休みです」「昨日は休みでした」と言います。
また連休という言葉を聞いたことがありますか？連休とは連続した休みのことです。例えば、土日がいつも休みの人の場合、月曜日が祝日で休みの時は土曜日と日曜日と月曜日が休みなので三連休になります。

みなさんは次の連休に何をしますか？
よかったら私のレッスンに来て教えてください。

重要な：じゅうような　important
予定：よてい　plan
連続した：れんぞくした　consecutive
祝日：しゅくじつ　national holiday

Get ready for a special treat! In this episode, I talk with Terri Creeden, an Executive Coach, trainer, and facilitator. Terri is a Certified Daring Way Facilitator and Dare to Lead Facilitator through the Brené Brown Education and Research Group. During our conversation, we talk about how to get a job while being authentic and vulnerable. Here are some gems from this episode:

"The employer will be most impressed by an authentic person sitting in front of them and not somebody who has canned, formulated responses that they've heard from every other candidate. Let them see who you really are and not who they are hoping you are."

"Anytime we are caught up managing our image, how we look and appear, and come across to somebody else, that immediately takes us right out of authenticity. So you're moving further away from what's really going to win you that interview."

"What leaders really want to see is that they can trust somebody. If you aren't able to say, "I need help, or I can't do that, or I don't know how to do that," they're going to have trouble trusting you." 

Tune in to get more valuable insights from Terri, so you're well prepared for your next job interview! The second part of our conversation will be released in the next episode.
