Adjetivos de Personalidad Parte I

In this introductory episode, I’ll explain how this podcast will go beyond dictionary definitions and challenge the idea that two words can actually have exactly the same meaning.

I’m your host Emma, an Italki teacher with four years’ experience in editing and teaching writing skills. I’m bringing my passion for the intricacies of the English language to this podcast, where I’ll explain the subtle, pragmatic differences between a pair of synonyms each week. 

This might mean, for example, that one of the two words is more formal than the other, or creates more of a negative meaning, or has specific connotations that mean it’s only suitable for a certain topic, or level, or audience.

So, when you’re writing your next email, chapter, letter, or essay, you can feel confident that you’re choosing the perfect word for the situation.

So, get your magnifying glass and join me on this investigation into vocabularly!

This is the Anyone Can Learn English podcast, episode #47

My name is Spencer and I’m an English conversation teacher. 

For English Conversation lessons, you can find me on Italki.com/spenceramansick 

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!

ACL Podcast🎙episode #47

Halo semua, selamat datang di podcast hari ini
Karena di sini setiap hari hujan, ayo berbicara tentang hujan! 
Setiap negara punya cara berbeda untuk berharap supaya hujan tidak turun
Saya ingin memperkenalkan dua cara yang unik, satu dari Jepang, dan satu lagi dari Indonesia

Di Jepang, mungkin kamu pernah mendengar tentang teru-teru bōzu
Ini adalah boneka kecil berwarna putih, seperti hantu lucu, yang biasanya digantung di jendela
Anak-anak membuatnya ketika mereka ingin cuaca cerah, misalnya saat ingin pergi piknik atau ada acara olahraga. Boneka ini menjadi simbol harapan agar besok tidak hujan

Sementara itu, di Indonesia, terutama di Jawa, orang-orang juga punya cara tradisional untuk menolak hujan. Mereka tidak menggantung boneka, tapi memakai bahan-bahan yang ada di dapur, seperti cabai merah, bawang merah, hmm ini bukan resep masakan ya… haha… dan sapu lidi
Cabai merah dipercaya memiliki energi panas, yang bisa membantu mengusir hujan
Bawang merah digunakan karena aromanya yang kuat dan dipercaya bisa membantu menolak datangnya hujan
Sapu lidi juga digunakan, biasanya diarahkan ke langit sambil berdoa, dengan harapan bisa "menyapu" awan gelap
Cara ini bukan ilmu pasti ya, tapi bagian dari tradisi lokal
Biasanya, semua itu dilakukan saat ada acara penting, seperti pernikahan, supaya cuaca tetap cerah

Kedua cara ini menunjukkan bahwa manusia selalu punya harapan, dan cara sendiri untuk berkomunikasi dengan alam
Kita tidak bisa mengatur cuaca, tapi kita bisa punya harapan sederhana, semoga hari itu cerah dan berjalan lancar

Saya harap perasaan kamu cerah dan hari kamu berjalan lancar ya!
Terima kasih sudah mendengarkan, sampai jumpa di episode selanjutnya! ^^

🗣️ Daily Life Dialogues

A dialogue between two friends about preparation for the examination (Chapter # 1)

Are you focusing all your energy on mastering conversational fluency while leaving grammar or writing in the dust? Sure, it’s tempting to specialize, but here’s the hard truth: putting all your focus on just one element of language learning is risky. Imagine dedicating all your time to conversation, only to wake up one day and realize you’re bored with it. Where does that leave your progress? It’s like betting all your money on one volatile stock—it might pay off, but it’s just as likely to lead to burnout. Research shows that our brains crave variety to stay sharp and engaged (Goldberg, 2001). So why risk stagnation when you can diversify your skills?
