Bir öğretmen gemiye binmiş. Gemiciye, “Sen hiç dilbilgisi kitabı okudun mu?” diye sormuş. Gemici “Hayır, daha önce hiç dilbilgisi kitabı okumadım.” diye cevap vermiş. Bunun üzerine öğretmen, gemiciye “Ömrünün yarısı mahvolmuş.” demiş.
Gemici çok sinirlenmiş, kalbi kırılmış ama öğretmene hiçbir şey söylememiş. Bir süre sonra büyük bir fırtına çıkmış, fırtına sebebiyle gemi çok sallanmış. Gemici, öğretmene “Sen yüzme biliyor musun?” diye sormuş. Öğretmen, “Hayır, yüzme bilmiyorum.” demiş. O zaman gemici, öğretmene şunları söylemiş: Şimdi senin ömrünün tamamı mahvoldu. Çünkü gemi biraz sonra batacak!

大家好，今天我们来聊聊元宵节必不可少的美食 - 元宵，又称“汤圆”。“元宵”的叫法主要流行于北方地区，南方地区较多称为“汤圆”。虽然它们外皮都是用糯米粉做的，且外形相似都为圆形，但制作方法和口感却各有千秋。北方的元宵是用干粉“滚”出来的，而南方的汤圆则是用湿粉“包”出来的。二者内里的馅料也各具特色，元宵多为甜馅，汤圆则有甜、咸、荤、素馅的不同选择。甜馅包含枣泥、豆沙、芝麻、花生甚至是水果口味。咸馅为猪肉馅。无论哪一种，都是美味无比的。吃元宵象征着团团圆圆，和和美美。
Today we’re talking about yuanxiao—the essential Lantern Festival delicacy, also known as tangyuan.
“Yuanxiao” is the name commonly used in northern China, while “tangyuan” is preferred in the south. Though both are made from glutinous rice flour and shaped into round balls symbolizing unity, they differ in preparation and texture: northern yuanxiao are made by rolling solid sweet fillings in dry rice flour until a coating forms, giving them a slightly chewy, rustic bite, whereas southern tangyuan are crafted by wrapping moist rice dough around the filling by hand, resulting in a smoother, softer texture. 
Their fillings also reflect regional tastes—yuanxiao are typically sweet, filled with red bean paste, black sesame, peanut, jujube (date) paste, or even fruit flavors, while tangyuan come in a wider variety including sweet, savory, meat (like minced pork), and vegetarian options. No matter the type, they’re all delicious—and eating these round treats symbolizes family reunion, harmony, and a happy, whole life.

EL MERCADO DE LA GRAN TENOCHTITÁN.

El Mercado de la  “Gran Tenochtitlán”, era el lugar donde se reunían las cosas, almacenando alimentos, animales, objetos y una gran diversidad de productos. Este  centro comercial prehispánico estuvo ubicado en Tlatelolco, ciudad fundada en 1338 por los tlatelolcas, tribu mexica que se separó de los tenochcas, fundadores de Tenochtitlan y estaba situada en un islote al norte de esta ciudad dentro del lago de Texcoco. Su tianguis era el corazón de un hormiguero multiétnico, un centro de reunión e intercambio cultural al que comerciantes -conocidos como pochtecas- provenientes de toda la geografía mesoamericana e individuos, especializados en el comercio a larga distancia entre las distintas regiones que integraban el imperio mexica, e incluso más allá de sus fronteras, acudían a vender sus mercancías, así como a comunicar noticias recogidas durante sus largos trayectos. Esto incluía la información militar, ya que frecuentemente los comerciantes desempeñaban las funciones de embajadores, emisarios e incluso espías, que describían los ricos territorios que fueran propicios para futuras guerras de conquista. El gran tianguis de Tlatelolco se ubicaba al suroeste del área que conocemos como el Templo Mayor de la ciudad; operaba en un gran espacio al aire libre donde se reunían compradores y vendedores; habían alrededor numerosas habitaciones que eran utilizadas como bodegas y depósitos, siendo considerado el modelo prototipo de mercado en Mesoamérica. Su fama deriva de la gran impresión que dejó en los conquistadores españoles, quienes le consignaron en sus crónicas. Cuando los españoles llegaron a la cuenca del Valle de México en 1520, Tlatelolco era el eje del comercio y la economía en el Anáhuac por encontrarse en los linderos de la ciudad de México-Tenochtitlán.
