En el Episodio 05 de "Segurola y Habana", el Podcast donde el idioma de los argentinos es explicado por argentinos, hoy les traemos la expresión "Cualquier bondi te deja bien". ¿Qué significa que cualquier bondi te deja bien? Argentinos responden en su idioma.

Many people believe in destiny but if there is one thing that I learned the hard way, "don't leave anything to chance."

This podcast is a weekly collection of my student questions and answers or (Q&A). Some Q&A may repeat. 

Today, we are covering 5 topics:

• Keep in touch/ keep in contact
• Bumping into
• Bark & bark
• Urgent & emergency 
• Stocktaking & taking stock  

- - REVIEW - -

It is easy to KEEP IN TOUCH with my friend, when I always BUMP INTO them walking their dog who loves URGENTLY BARKING at me every weekend.

My job is a stock investor and my hobby is hiking.  Last weekend after my last STOCK TAKING of the day, I ended up in the EMERGENCY room after a tree fell on my leg. I told the doctor the tree BARK scratched my skin, but the x-ray showed a broken bone. The doctor insisted to KEEP IN CONTACT if I experience new pain and to stay in the hospital for URGENT care.

Thank you for your time!

Why You Freeze in English: The Psychology of Language Learning

🎧 Have you ever felt like your English is perfect in your head… but the moment you open your mouth — it disappears?

You tell yourself it’s bad grammar, or not enough vocabulary. But the truth is… it’s not grammar at all.

It’s psychology.

In this episode, we’re going to explore what’s really happening in your mind when you speak another language — why emotions, memory, identity, and even your belief system decide whether your English flows or freezes.

You’ll discover why anxiety blocks your brain, how perfectionism slows you down, and how playfulness accelerates fluency.

And I’ll share what I’ve learned in over 20,000 coaching sessions with professionals around the world — from Russia to China to the Middle East — about how people truly unlock their global voice.

If you’ve ever doubted yourself in English… this episode will change the way you see language learning forever. Let’s dive in.


If today’s episode resonated with you, here’s what I want you to do next. Don’t just stop at listening — take action.

I’ve put together a free Voice Starter Kit with warm-ups and mindset shifts I usually only share with my private clients. It’s designed to lower your anxiety, boost your confidence, and help you sound clear and natural in English — even under pressure.

All you need to do is send me a quick DM with the word VOICE and I’ll send it straight to you.

Remember — your English is not just grammar and vocabulary. It’s your global identity. Let’s unlock it together.

Why You Freeze in English: The Psychology of Language Learning

最近日本は暖かくなって春だな～って感じる日が多くて、桜も咲いてきたよ！みんなが住んでいるところはどうかな？そういえば、桜がどのくらい咲いているかは特別な数え方をするの知ってる？桜が咲き始めたころは「開花宣言」っていうよ。

It's getting warmer and warmer in Japan these days, and the cherry blossoms are blooming! How about where you live? Oh, by the way, did you know that there is a special way to count how much cherry blossoms are in bloom? When the cherry blossoms begin to bloom, it is called "Kaika sengen" (declaration of blooming)

今年、2022年は3月17日に福岡で「開花宣言」があって一番早かったよ。そして、その次に3月20日に東京で「開花宣言」があったんだよね。北海道は4月20日ごろに咲く予定らしいよ。毎年「さくら開花予想」っていう地図があるからググって見てみてね。

This year, 2022, Fukuoka was the first to declare the blooming of cherry blossoms on March 17. The next earliest was Tokyo, which declared the blooming of cherry blossoms on March 20. Hokkaido is scheduled to bloom around April 20. There is a map called "cherry blossom forecast" every year, so please Google it and check it out.

桜が半分くらい咲けば50％咲いているの意味になる「五分（ぶ）ざき」っていうんだよね。だいたい80％咲いたら「満開」って言ってお花見をしたりする人が多くなるよ。なんで80％は「八分ざき」じゃなくて「満開」かっていうと「今、桜は100％咲いています！」っていうともう散り始めるかららしいよ。

If half of the cherry trees are in bloom, it is called "gobu zaki," meaning that 50% of the cherry trees are in bloom. When 80% of the cherry blossoms are in full bloom, it is called "mankai," and many people go cherry blossom viewing. The reason why 80% is called "full bloom" and not "hachibu zaki(80% bloom)" is because "100% of the cherry trees are in full bloom now!" means the cherry blossoms will already begin to fall.

ちなみに「開花宣言」があったらニュースでは「さくらの便りがありました」っていうんだよね。「便り」っていうのは「手紙」って意味だよ。例えば「本日、福岡から桜の便りがありました」みたいな。だいたい「開花宣言」から1週間くらいかけて満開になっていくから、もし日本のニュースを見ることがあれば注意して見てみてね

By the way, when the "blooming of cherry blossoms" is declared, the news says "there is a "tayori" of cherry blossoms". The word "tayori" means "letter".  For example, "Today, we received "tayori" of cherry blossoms from Fukuoka". It usually takes about a week after the "bloom declaration" for the cherry blossoms to be in full bloom, so if you watch the news in Japan, pay attention to it.
