Sweden Pays Grandparents to Care for Grandkids

안녕하세요~ 잘 지내고 있었어요? 오랜만이에요!
한국은 지금 장마철이라 매일 조금씩은 비가 오는 것 같아요.
그래서 날씨가 엄청 덥고 습해서 에어컨 없이는 힘들어요.
여러분은 더위를 이겨내는 방법이 있나요?

In this podcast, there are two versions of the same dialogue.
The second recording is a slower version; if you missed some words or phrases in the first recording try listening to the second one once again :)

뜨거운 여름에도 화이팅!

آیا تا به حال پلی ساخته‌ایم؟
در زمان‌های دور دو برادر در کنار هم بر سر زمینی که از پدرشان به ارث برده بودند کار می‌کردند و در نزدیک هم خانه‌هایی برای خودشان ساخته بودند و به خوبی روزگار می‌گذراندند. برحسب اتفاق روزی بر سر مسئله‌ای با هم به اختلاف رسیدند. برادر کوچکتر بین زمین‌ها و خانه‌هایشان کانال بزرگی حفر کرد و داخل آن آب انداخت تا هیچ گونه ارتباطی با هم نداشته باشند.
برادر بزرگتر هم ناراحت شد و از نجاری خواست تا با نصب پرچین‌های بلند کاری کند تا برادرش را نبیند و خودش عازم شهر شد. هنگام عصر که برگشت با تعجب دید که نجار بجای ساخت دیوار چوبی یک پل بزرگ ساخته است.
برادر کوچکتر که از صبح شاهد این صحنه بود پیش خود اندیشید حتماً برادرش برای آشتی دستور ساخت پل را داده است و بی‌صبرانه منتظر بازگشت او بود.
رفت و برادر بزرگ را در آغوش گرفت و از او معذرت‌خواهی کرد. دو برادر از نجار خواستند چند روزی مهمان آنها باشد. اما او گفت: پل‌های زیادی هستند که او باید بسازد و رفت.

Have we ever built a bridge?
In the distant times, two brothers worked side by side on the land they inherited from their father and built houses for themselves nearby and had a good time. As it happened, one day they had a disagreement over an issue. The younger brother dug a big canal between their lands and houses and poured water into it so that they would have no connection with each other.
The older brother was also upset and asked a carpenter to install tall hedges so that he could not see his brother and left to the city himself. When he returned in the evening, he was surprised to see that the carpenter had built a big bridge instead of a wooden wall. The younger brother, who witnessed this scene from the morning, thought to himself that his brother must have ordered the construction of the bridge for reconciliation and was impatiently waiting for his return.
He went and hugged his big brother and apologized to him. Two brothers asked the carpenter to be their guest for a few days. But he said: There are many bridges that he has to build and left.

はい、こんにちは。今回はポッドキャストの28回目です。私は最近、鼻水が止まりません。季節が変わるときは、寒暖差アレルギーというアレルギーが出ます。寒暖差アレルギーは、気温の差が7度以上になると出やすいそうです。特に朝と夜がひどいです。寝不足になるのは辛いですが、私はずっと家にいるので、昼に休むことができます。最近のレッスンはだいたい午前中です。

Hello. This is episode 28 of my podcast. I have had a runny nose recently. When the seasons change, I get an allergy called a cold weather allergy. I’m told that cold-weather allergies are more likely to appear when the temperature difference is more than seven degrees Celsius. It is particularly bad in the morning and at night. It is hard for me to sleep, but I am at home all the time, so I can rest during the day. My lessons these days are usually in the morning.

最近また、音楽を作り始めました。私は美術大学に通っていました。入学試験のために二年ぐらいデッサンを勉強しました。音楽や、美術や、スポーツなど、文化的な活動はなんでもそうですが、頭で理解することより、練習を通して経験することが重要です。先生のアドバイスは感覚的な表現が多く、同じ経験がないと理解できないからです。筋肉だけではなく、耳や目なども、活動するためのトレーニングが重要です。

I recently started making music again. I used to go to art college. I studied drawing for about two years for the entrance exam. As with any cultural activity, be it music, art or sports, it is more important to experience it through practice than to understand it in your head. This is because the teacher’s advice is often expressed in sensory terms, which cannot be understood without the same experience. Physical muscle training is important for certain activities. However, training our hearing sense and visual sense is important too.

なので20代のときは、ほとんど毎日絵を描いていました。しかし、それは思っていたより楽しくありませんでした。私は小さい頃から絵を描くことが好きでしたが、絵を描くことで、空想の世界にいることが好きでした。人に絵を見せて褒められることよりも、一人で絵を描いて楽しんでいる時間の方が重要でした。評価にはあまり興味がありませんでした。

So when I was in my twenties, I drew almost every day. But it wasn’t as much fun as I thought it would be. I had loved drawing since I was a little girl, but I loved it because it let me be in my own imaginary world. It was more important to me to spend time alone drawing and having fun than to show my drawings to others and receive compliments. I was not really interested in evaluation.

Today we have two idioms that both mean the same thing. They mean to ignore someone while they're doing something wrong, or maybe just to pretend not to notice. They are to "turn a blind eye" and to "look the other way". I hope you enjoy today's short episode!
