Marcus’s Adventure: A New City and Old Friends

Think of a time when your friend wanted to buy something, but you didn't like it. What did you say to him/her? 
Listen to this conversation:
Louise: Here is the dress I love. What do you think? Does it look ok on me?
Zoe: Well I'm not sure. 
Louise: Why what's wrong with it?
Zoe: I don't think it suits you. It's a bit short. Why don't you try this black one?
Louise: But what's wrong with this one?
Zoe: If I were you I'd try the black one. I think it looks great.

English is a broad and beautiful language which is always evolving. Over time, people assign different meanings to the same word or they create new words which can be known as slang. Slang is informal and used in speech rather than writing. Here, I have put together some words you might hear when speaking with native British English speakers.

11月は日本で大学の学園祭シーズンです。学園祭とは学校のお祭りのことで、学生たちが主体となってお祭りを企画し、屋台やステージの演目を考えたり、展覧会を行ったりします。この大学の学園祭は3日間にわたって行われる予定ですが、明日は一日中雨の予報なので初日の今日、行くことにしました。

お昼前に行ったのでまだ準備ができていないところが多く、少しぶらぶらしながらライブ演奏や屋台の準備を待ちました。沖縄のドーナツであるサーターアンダーギーから菓子パン、焼きそば、お好み焼き、ポトフ、ブラジルのシュラスコなどなど色々なお店がありました。色々食べた中で1番美味しかったのは胡麻あんまんでした。仕事があったので2時間しかいられなかったのですが、雰囲気を味わうには充分でした。

いつもは閉会式の後に打ち上げ花火があり、とてもきれいだったのですが、今年は大学の創立70年ということでドローンショーがあるようです。最終日に見に行くのが楽しみです。

A Hot Saturday in Córdoba Argentina

Shipbuilding today is based on science and ships are built using computers and sophisticated tools. Shipbuilding in ancient Rome, however, was more of an art relying on estimation, inherited techniques and personal experience. The Romans were not traditionally sailors but mostly land- based people, who learned to build ships from the people that they conquered  namely the Greeks and the Egyptians.

There are a few surviving written documents that give descriptions and representations of ancient Roman ships, including the sails and rigging. Excavated vessels also provide some clues about ancient shipbuilding techniques. Studies of these have taught us that ancient Roman shipbuilders built the outer hull first, then proceeded with the frame and the rest of the ship. Planks used to bulld the outer hull were initially sewn together. Starting from the 6th century BCE, they were fixed using a method called mortise and tenon, whereby one plank locked into another without the need for stitching. Then in the first centuries of the current era, Mediterranean shipbuilders shifted to another shipbuilding method, still in use today, which consisted of building the frame first and then proceedlng with the hull and the other components of the ship. This method was more systematic and dramatically shortened ship construction t›mes. The ancient Romans built large merchant ships and warships whose size and technology  were unequalled  until the 16th century CE.
