Why is Friday the 13th Unlucky? (with transcript)

Nel tempo libero Jimmy fa un sacco di cose. Come sappiamo, Jimmy è un signore molto ricco che non lavora e ha tanto tempo libero.

Il suo hobby principale è studiare l’italiano. Anche se abita in Italia da qualche mese, il suo italiano non è ancora buono. Ama anche passeggiare, fare sport all’aria aperta e vogare la gondola.

Nel fine settimana, se il tempo è bello va a fare delle escursioni in montagna. Se fa brutto rimane a Venezia e va al cinema per vedere un film con il suo amico Marco. Una volta al mese va a vedere uno spettacolo a teatro e una mostra al museo.

A volte fa un viaggio con gli amici: ama visitare le città d’arte e fare fotografie.

Marco non ha molto tempo libero perché lavora tanto. Tutti i mercoledì sera, però, gioca a calcio con gli amici. Nel fine settimana va al cinema con Jimmy, mangia al ristorante e poi va a ballare in discoteca.

Quando è di cattivo umore, suona la chitarra e canta. Quando è di buon umore legge un libro o una rivista di elettronica.

Marco ama anche fare shopping di oggetti tecnologici, stare al computer, navigare su internet e chiacchierare con gli amici su Whatsapp.

Cocai italiano - Podcast for Italian learners

Il tempo libero

This week, you’ll hear from the very first guest on the Express to Impress podcast. Allyson Plumberg, Founder of Rooted Accents: Solutions for Accent Modification, joins me to discuss accent modification. 

Allyson provides speech therapy services and accent modification coaching to students and professionals worldwide. She has a Master of Science degree in Speech-Language Pathology from Arizona State University.

The episode is the first of two with my conversation with Allison. It’s packed full of useful information for English language learners. 

We kick off the conversation with a definition of an accent and have a quick discussion about the General American English accent and micro accents.

Then, we dive into a discussion about common beliefs about accents. Allison debunks common myths that limit people from being able to speak English effectively.

We also talk about speaking speed, word stress, content versus function words, stressed and unstressed syllables, reductions, contractions, and more! 

Episode originally published February 26, 2021.

Original theme music by Lucas Knutter
