Mina Serie Cantanti Episodio 1 livello A1

In questa seconda puntata riflettiamo sul titolo del romanzo di Domenico Starnone, Lacci, e sul suo significato simbolico.
I lacci diventano metafora dei legami familiari, dei fili invisibili che uniscono e, a volte, soffocano. Attraverso la storia di Aldo, Vanda e dei figli Sandro e Anna, scopriamo come gesti quotidiani, come allacciare le scarpe, possano racchiudere emozioni profonde, responsabilità e memoria affettiva.

Durante l’episodio esploriamo anche parole, modi di dire e lessico italiano utili per studenti:

Seguire le orme di qualcuno → imitare il percorso o l’esempio di qualcun altro.
Allacciare / riallacciare → sia letterale (scarpe) che figurato (legami, rapporti).
Arraffare tutto → prendere tutto con avidità, senza pensare agli altri.
Lasciare le briciole → lasciare pochissimo, quasi nulla.
Torturarsi reciprocamente → soffrire insieme in maniera dolorosa, spesso riferito a conflitti familiari.
Sciogliere i nodi → liberarsi da vincoli o problemi del passato.

Riflettiamo insieme su come gesti piccoli e quotidiani possano raccontare storie di affetto, distanza e responsabilità, e su come la lingua italiana esprima queste sfumature attraverso verbi, immagini e modi di dire.

Successful Job Interview Tips and Tricks

Nowadays, because of social media and pretty privilege, a lot of women feel the pressure of improving their looks to the extent of going under the knife. However, people don't talk about the dark side of plastic surgery which actually has more cons than pros long term. Some even die on the operating table or have irreversible side effects such as a distorted face or a badly bruised self esteem.

THE DARK SIDE OF PLASTIC SURGEY PEOPLE DON'T TALK ABOUT

Los árabes estuvieron en España, que entonces no era España, por muchos años. Eso dejó una gran influencia del árabe en la arquitectura, el arte, la cultura, y la lengua. Hoy voy a hablar de algunas palabras españolas muy usadas que vienen del árabe.

Espero que disfrutes el episodio. Una vez que lo hayas escuchado dime qué te parece. Dime también has usado estas palabras en tus conversaciones en español, y si conoces otras palabras españolas de origen árabe.

こんにちは！Atsushiです。
今日は大阪でとっています。
気温は30℃！暑そうです。まだ外に出てないのでわかりませんが。天気はきれいに晴れています。


さて、今日はビールについて？コーヒーについて？
両方を話します。

わたしのレッスンを受けてくれている方で、本当に、とても、めっちゃ、ビールを好きな方がいます。毎回必ずビールな話が出てきて、たくさん笑います。

その方とビールの話をしていました。日本のビールもクラフトビールが人気がありますが、海外ではもっとバリエーションがたくさんあるようです。

そしてスタウトビールの話になりました。スタウトは黒ビールのことですね。なぜ少し黒いのか、という話をしていて、スタウトはローストモルト、焙煎したモルトを使うから、という話を聞きました。コーヒーではよく使う焙煎、という言葉がビールの工程の話に出てきて、ビックリしました。

調べてみると、普通のビールでは、焙煎して、乾燥させるの焙燥ばいそう、というようです。スタウトビールは、このばいそう、という工程がより高い温度で、麦が色が変わるまで、香ばしくなるまで焙煎する為、黒い色になるようです。

知らないことを知れるととてもおもしろいですね！

赤ワインやコーヒーも寝かせる、熟成させる場合もあり、飲み物の作り方は、似ている部分があるなと感じました。


といいことで、今回も最後まで聞いていただき、ありがとうございます！ではまた！
