In questo podcast parlo dell'ultima tappa del viaggio che ho fatto con la mia famiglia sulla West Coast Americana:  le spiaggie in cittá che abbiamo visitato e altre spiaggie un po' più selvaggie, altri posti in cittá da vedere, le mie impressioni. Tempi verbali: presente, passato: passato prossimo e passato remoto.

10. Frases, refranes o dichos populares sobre personas y la sociedad en español

あれから月日がたち、カンパネラが３０歳になったとき、帝国の極秘任務として『森』の地質調査をまかされました。調査隊は防護スーツに身をつつみ、高速エレベーターで5000メートル下へおりていきます。

調査隊員になっとたき、カンパネラは人類の進化の歴史をしりました。
700年まえ、人口の増加にともない、超高層ビルが立ちならびました。それでも人口においつかないため、ビルはどんどん高くなる一方でした。やがて、ビルの上層階どうしが蜘蛛の巣のようにつながっていき、あっというまに空中帝国が生まれました。

多くの人間は、進化したゆたかな生活をもとめ、空中帝国へとうつり住みましたが、一部の人間は『森』にのこり、『森』とともに生きる暮らしをえらびました。
空中帝国に住む人間と『森』に住む人間は、そのときにわかれてしまったのです。

Grammar Point: The verb (to be) boodan
While reading the Conversation, you might have wondered why the counterpart of the English verb “is” in Farsi (ast )
had different forms in different places. For instance, when Nasrin introduced her husband to her mom, she said, In
Dānieleh (This is Daniel). In another place, Nasrin asked her mom, Farzād kojāst? (Where is
Farzad?).
Like English, Farsi also uses both full and contracted forms of the verb to be. In English, we can say, “I am happy,” “Jane is
beautiful,” and “You are smart,” or we can contract the verb and say, “I’m happy,” “Jane’s beautiful,” and “You’re smart.” In
the same way, Nasrin used contracted forms of the be-verb.
Like most Indo-European languages, Farsi verbs are conjugated. Conjugation means that speakers attach endings to verbs
that provide information about the person, number, and tense of a verb. In Farsi, very often pronouns are omitted from
sentences because the verb endings imply the pronoun.

more examples:

مُعَلِّمَم=معلمم   moallemam = moallem hastam = I'm a teacher.
دُکتُری= دکتری؟  Doctori?        = Doctor hasti?        = are you a doctor?
تاجِره= تاجره       Tajere            = Tajer hast              = he's/she's a business(wo)man.
خُوشحالیم = خوشحالیم   khosh'halim =khosh'hal hastim= we're happy.
ناراحَتین؟= ناراحتین          narahatin? = narahat hastin? = are you unhappy?
تو راهَن؟= تو راهن؟         tu rahan? = tu rah hastan? = are they on the way?

The verb (to be) boodan = بودن

Man 1: Several years ago, I was in a car accident that left me with a back injury. As a computer programmer, I am still able to do my job, but I often have to take painkillers. When the pain gets particularly bad, I sometimes have to lie down on my back for a while until it goes away because sitting up really hurts. When we were in the office, I would worry that my colleagues would see me taking pills. Since we’ve been working from home, it has been much better. I can go and see my physical therapist more often too. I don’t have to worry as much and if I need to lie down for a little while to help my back, I can. When we were in the office, I’d sometimes be in a lot of pain but didn’t feel like I could say anything.

Woman: I have suffered from depression for a long time. Most of the time I manage it, but I often feel very nervous. Working in an office was really hard as I was always scared that I might panic and my colleagues would wonder why I was acting strangely. Working at home has been so much better for me as I don’t have to talk to so many people and I can have a relaxed environment and play peaceful music. Management is talking about going back to the office soon and I can already feel a lot of anxiety about it. I’m worried that I will not be able to hide that I’m depressed and people will judge me.

Man 2: I’m quite deaf in one ear. I don’t like to mention it when I’m at work because I feel as though there is often a stigma around disabilities. I worry that people will treat me differently. The problem is, sometimes I don’t hear when people are talking to me and then they think I’m ignoring them or I’m not listening. Working at home has been great for me because all of our communication has been online or video calls and I can wear headphones like everyone else. I’m not looking forward to going back to the office and I don’t see the point as I can do my job perfectly well from home.

EN LA ESCUELA HACEMOS MUCHAS ACTIVIDADES. UNAS NOS GUSTAN MÁS
QUE OTRAS. LAS QUE PEOR HACEMOS SON LAS QUE MENOS NOS GUSTAN.
EN ESTA LECTURA VERÁS LO QUE LE SUCEDIÓ A SOFÍA CON LA GIMNASIA.

Antes de comenzar la lectura

1. ¿Qué actividad de las que haces en la semana es la que más te gusta?

2. ¿Cuál es la que menos te gusta?

3. Adivina qué le ocurrió a Sofía con la gimnasia.

Presta atención a la lectura de tu profesor

A Sofía no se le da muy bien la gimnasia.

-LOS juegos de pelota son los que menos le gustan.

Casi todos los niños de la clase son más altos y más
 fuertes que ella. Y siempre lleva las de perder.

Cada vez que toca el balón, le gritan:

—Eres un desastre, Sofía.

Lo de ser un desastre a Sofía no le gusta nada.

Así que trama algo.

Antes de la clase de gimnasia se acerca a la señora Ana, que
es la profesora, le enseña la pierna, más bien flaca, y le dice:

-No puedo jugar. Me duele aquí.

-¿Te duele mucho? —le pregunta la señora Ana.

Sofía dice que si con la cabeza, la mar de convencida.

—Entonces será mejor que te quedes en el banquillo.

Sofía está encantada de lo bien que le ha salido.

Y desde entonces, a la hora de gimnasia, suele dolerle la pierna.

Pero la señora Ana no se lo ha creído del todo.
