Nivel B1 B Tema: Verbos con preposiciones. Las preposiciones agregan mucho significado a las oraciones. Más allá del verbo. Tenemos que aprenderlas al mismo tiempo que avanzamos... con los verbos.... claro!!. Hoy comparto algunos ejemplos para integrar las preposiciones a la rutina de estudio y a la conversación. El primer verbo del que quiero hablar es LLORAR porque es muy común decir LLORAR DE RISA :D!
Gracias por sus preguntas y por compartir este audio, que es el primero de una serie para este tema.
Nos vemos en clase, en Italki, por supuesto. 😊 Rocío.

Welcome to the American English Pronunciation Guide. My name is Trevor Kafka, and I am your host.

There are many different varieties of American English. I was born and raised in New York, which has given me General American English pronunciation. The English that I speak has 15 vowel sounds. 

Please view the transcript for help while listening.

Today, we will talk about the vowel sound number 1 of 15: /æ/ black cat. The mouth must be open and wide for this sound, maybe a little more than you are used to in your native language.

Listen to me saying this sound and repeat: /æ/, /æ/, /æ/

Listen to and repeat the following single-syllable words:
black
cat
bad
can
have
laugh
sad
tax
thank

Listen to and repeat the following multiple-syllable words:
eggplant
gather
happen
master
command
family
unsatisfied
understand
imagine

Listen to and repeat the following sentences:
The mad cat had a hat.
It is bad to have a laugh when your family is sad.
I can imagine you’re unsatisfied with the master’s command.

I would like to thank Shirley Thompson and Karen Taylor for their work in developing the set of key phrases that I use with each vowel, such as /æ/ black cat, /eɪ/ grey day, etc.

中文每日一练

每日听汉语

日本料理をつくるときに　基本の調味料を入れる順番があります。
それが「さしすせそ」です。
「さ」は　砂糖
「し」は　塩
「す」は　酢
「せ」は　しょうゆ
「そ」は　味噌

料理によって使わない調味料はありますが、おいしく作るには　まず甘味をつけて　それから辛みをつけていくのが　日本料理の基本です。

ところが、友だちが　何をまちがったのか、「あいうえおの順番に　調味料は入れないとね」なんて言うです。
「あいうえお？？？」
「さしすせそ　でしょう？」
「あ！」

この会話のあと、私たちは　しばらく笑っていました。

When cooking Japanese cuisine, there is a specific order to add the basic seasonings.
It’s called "Sa-Shi-Su-Se-So."

"Sa" stands for sugar (sato).
"Shi" stands for salt (shio).
"Su" stands for vinegar (su).
"Se" stands for soy sauce (shoyu).
"So" stands for miso (miso).
While not all these seasonings are used in every dish, the key to delicious Japanese cooking is to start with sweetness and then gradually add the salty flavors.

However, my friend made a funny mistake and said,
"You have to add the seasonings in the order of A-I-U-E-O, right?"
"A-I-U-E-O??? Wait, don’t you mean Sa-Shi-Su-Se-So?"
"Oh!"

After that conversation, we couldn’t stop laughing for a while.

It is very important to use contractions in your speech. They are not informal, they are always required. I discuss this in today's podcast.
