In this latest (somewhat belated!) episode, I talk about an article I read the day before about 7 ways tomake yourself smarter. I was pleasantly surprised to find that I did several of the thing the article mentioned. Have a listen, see how many you do.

Kev's English Podcast: Episode 23: 7 Ways to get Smarter!

In this episode, we will be discussing some of the differences between informal and formal Farsi, and we'll go through some examples of  each one.  We will focus on  the nuances of the Farsi language and learn how to communicate more effectively . In addition to the podcast, I have attached a Google Doc with further information and examples for listeners to study and practice.

Formal vs. Informal Farsi: Understaning the differences

Halo, apa kabar semua? Semoga semua sehat ya.
Cuaca di Jepang sekarang semakin sejuk. Saya menantikan musim gugur! Daun-daun di musim gugur sangat indah.

Ngomong-ngomong, dua hari lalu saya pergi ke bank. Meskipun sekarang ini banyak bank-bank digital menjamur di mana-mana, tapi di Jepang, beberapa bank masih konvensional. Jadi saya harus pergi ke bank untuk mengganti buku bank. Dan… saya lupa membawa stempel nama saya!  Di Bahasa Jepang, "stempel nama" artinya "はんこ”, di Bahasa Inggris artinya "personal seal". 

Saya bertanya ke orang Bank, apakah boleh mengganti stempel nama saya dengan tanda tangan. "Tanda tangan" itu artinya "signature" di Bahasa Inggris dan di Bahasa Jepang artinya "サイン”. "Maaf, tidak bisa, harus memakai stempel" jawab orang Bank. Aduh…. saya harus kembali lagi ke Bank minggu ini. 

Di Indonesia, kami memakai tanda tangan untuk identitas diri. Tapi di Jepang, hampir semua orang menggunakan stempel nama untuk dokumen-dokumen penting dan resmi. Bagaimana di negara kamu? Apakah juga memakai stempel nama untuk identitas diri? Atau menggunakan tanda tangan? Coba tulis di kolom komentar ya. 

Ok, sampai di sini cerita saya. Sampai jumpa lagi! 


Akhir minggu

떡 먹자! 엄마가 맛있는 떡 사왔다.
吃年糕吧! 妈买了好吃的年糕。

엄마, 이것 무슨 떡이에요?
妈, 这是什么年糕? 

이 떡은 설탕도 적고, 찹쌀과 현미로 만들어서 일반 떡보다 칼로리가 낮아. 这些是低糖的, 用糯米和糙米做的, 比一般的年糕低很多卡路里。 

우와! 너무 좋아요! 오늘은 꼭 실컷 먹어야지.
哇! 太好了! 今天一定吃个痛快。
