In our first ever episode we explore the question of how language influences thought. But if it does... Does it mean that some languages are better for certain things than others?

In this episode, we’ll discuss the difference between 表演 and 表现. While both words involve showcasing something, they are used in different contexts. We'll explore their meanings, usage, and how they are applied in various situations, from artistic performances to everyday behavior. Tune in to learn how to distinguish these two concepts and use them correctly in your Chinese conversations!

表演 vs 表现：Differ Them at Once!

Learning a Language is exactly like moving into a new house. It takes time to settle in. You should never be frustrated when you forget what you have learnt and make mistakes where corrections have already been made.

Immersing Ourselves in the Language

In this episode of Streetwise English Podcast, I talk about the Day of the Dead celebration at The Great Taco Festival in Las Vegas. My teacher profile: https://italki.com/teacher/1947582 Thanks for listening!

SWE 102 Day of the Dead - The Great Taco Festival

Introducing the word "bọn" to combine with most of other pronouns.
This is a more casual and natural way to say "we" in Vietnamese daily conversations!

Cùng nói Tiếng Việt nhé!

Bạn biết "we" trong tiếng Việt không?

说到这里，他就长时间地陷入沉思之中。
And he sank into a reverie, which lasted a long time.
然后，从口袋里掏出了我画的小羊，看着他的宝贝入了神。
Then, taking my sheep out of his pocket, he buried himself in the contemplation of his treasure.
你们可以想见这种关于“别的星球”的若明若暗的话语使我心里多么好奇。
You can imagine how my curiosity was aroused by this half-confidence about the "other planets."
因此我竭力地想知道其中更多的奥秘。
I made a great effort, therefore, to find out more on this subject.
你是从哪里来的，我的小家伙？
My little man, where do you come from?
你的家在什么地方？
What is this ‘where I live, of which you speak?
你要把我的小羊带到哪里去？
Where do you want to take your sheep?
他沉思了一会，然后回答我说：
After a re?ective silence he answered:
好在有你给我的那只箱子，夜晚可以给小羊当房子用。
The thing that is so good about the box you have given me is that at night he can use it as his house.
那当然。
That is so.
如果你听话的话，我再给你画一根绳子，

And if you are good I will give you a string, too,
白天可以栓住它。再加上一根杆子。我的建议看来有点使小王子反感。
so that you can tie him during the day, and a post to tie him to.
但是小王子对我喊到：“栓住它，多么奇怪的主意。”
But the little prince seemed shocked by this offer: "Tie him! What a queer idea!"
“如果你不栓住它，它就到处跑，那么它会跑丢的，”我说。
"But if you don’t tie him," I said, "he will wander off somewhere, and get lost."
我的这位朋友又笑出了声：“你想要它跑到哪里去呀？”
My friend broke into another peal of laughter: "But where do you think he would go?"
不管什么地方。它一直往前跑。
Anywhere. Straight ahead of him.
这时，小王子郑重其事地说：“这没有什么关系，我那里很小很小。
Then the little prince said, earnestly: "That doesn’t matter. Where I live, everything is so small!"
接着，他略带伤感地又补充了一句：“一直朝前走，也不会走出多远”
And, with perhaps a hint of sadness, he added: "Straight ahead of him, nobody can go very far..."
