La prononciation (2 syllabes et 3 syllabes) 

TRANSCRIPTION (explanation included)
These expressions of happiness and contentment span a spectrum of formality and tone. In everyday conversation, one might simply say they are "happy," "content," or even use the term "pleased" to express satisfaction. When the feeling is particularly strong, phrases like "I am genuinely happy" and "I am overjoyed" convey the depth of joy. In informal settings, a more relaxed approach may be taken with expressions like "on cloud nine" or "over the moon," indicating extreme happiness. For matters necessitating decorum, a formal approach may involve phrases like "I am pleased to inform you" or "I am delighted to announce," emphasizing the importance of the news. Politeness tempers the happiness in expressions such as "I'm really happy for you" or "That's wonderful news," demonstrating a genuine celebration of someone else's success. A touch of wit adds a layer of playfulness to the joy, as seen in expressions like "doing the happy dance" or "grinning from ear to ear." In more refined circles, the upper class might communicate their contentment with statements like "I'm quite content" or "I find myself in high spirits," maintaining an air of sophistication. For royalty, joy is conveyed with grace and dignity, as in "It brings me great joy" or "I am genuinely pleased," underscoring the formal nature of the response. Ultimately, the choice of expression hinges on the context and the level of decorum required for the situation at hand.

If robots do take over the world, this one probably won't be the leader.

Less than 5.8 centimeters tall — a little shorter than a lighter — it has been recognized by Guinness World Records as the world's smallest humanoid robot.

Humanoid robots look and act like humans. For the Guinness record, they must be able to move their shoulders, elbows, knees and hips, and also be able to walk.

Made by a Japanese student named Mitsuya Tatsuhiko, this one is less than half the size of the previous holder of the world record, which was made by students from Hong Kong.

Tatsuhiko is a postgraduate student at Nagoya Institute of Technology, where he researches crawler robots. Crawler robots don't look like humans, however, and they're used to inspect places that are hard to get to.

Tatsuhiko has been interested in robots since he was a child.

According to Guinness World Records, he built his first humanoid robot when he was 10.

He didn't spend as much time making them during high school, but he has returned to his passion as he has gotten older.

It took him a few tries to get his record-breaking robot right, and he worked hard to make it as small as he could.

He applied for the record with his third attempt while he was in the fourth year of his degree. He said he was very happy to have broken the record.

Tatsuhiko hopes to work with robots when he finishes university, but he'll also keep making them at home as a hobby.

LA COCHINITA PIBIL.

En la época prehispánica, la cochinita pibil era un platillo que se degustaba cada 2 de noviembre durante el llamado “Hanal Pixan” -comida de las almas-. Este guiso se elaboraba con faisán, jabalí o venado y se cocía en el pib u “horno de tierra”.

Después, durante la Colonia, la carne de esos animales fue reemplazada por la de cerdo. Pero no solo la carne fue lo que cambió, también los hornos de tierra pues fueron sustituidos poco a poco por ollas de vapor u hornos normales.

Ingredientes (para 10 o 12 personas)
2 hojas de plátano pasadas por la flama (para ablandarlas)
1½ kilo de pierna de puerco
½ kilo de lomo de puerco con costilla
200 gramos de recado de achiote (se puede usar el que se vende comercialmente)
1 taza de jugo de naranja agria o mitad de vinagre y mitad de jugo de naranja dulce
¼ de cucharadita de comino en polvo
1 cucharadita de orégano seco
½ cucharadita de pimienta negra en polvo
½ cucharadita de canela en polvo
5 pimientas gordas toscamente molida
3 dientes de ajo exprimido
½ cucharadita de chile piquín
Sal al gusto
125 gramos de manteca de cerdo
1 cucharadita de pimienta blanca en polvo

Salsa para acompañarla:
8 rabanitos muy bien lavados y finamente picados
1 cebolla morada chica picada muy finamente
4 chiles habaneros picados muy finamente
½ taza de cilantro picado muy finamente
1 taza de jugo de naranja agria o de vinagre
Sal al gusto
Preparación
Primero, forra una charola de horno con las hojas de plátano, y deja que éstas sobresalgan para poder envolver la cochinita.
Después coloca la carne sobre las mismas y disuelve el achiote en la naranja agria.
Posteriormente, añade las especias y con esto baña la carne. Deja marinar cuando menos ocho horas o de un día para otro en el refrigerador.
Baña entonces con la manteca derretida, luego envuelve muy bien en las hojas de plátano, tapa con papel de aluminio y hornea en un horno precalentado a 175º C durante 1½ horas, o hasta que la carne esté tan suave que casi se ...

こんばんは！
Japanese daily life podcast のAtsushiです。
このPodcastは、日本語を勉強しているみなさんに向けたPodcastです。


皆さんお元気でしょうか。
昨日のpodcastでは、今北海道は雪が多くて走るのが大変ですと言う話をしました。

それで走らなくても体を動かせる方法を1つ決めましたので、今日はその話をしようと思います。



今回は家にフィットネスバイクを置くことにしました。
ジムに行くと置いてますよね。

自転車をこぐような形で運動ができるものをフィットネスバイクとかエアロバイクとか言うんですけど、それを家に置くことにしました。

でもこれは買うのではなく、レンタルをすることにしました。もともとは買う予定で、30,000円位までのものだったらいいかなぁと思って探してたんですけど、まぁ良いのは見つけたんですが、まぁいつか使わなくなるかもしれないとか思うこともあります。それから、使いたいのは、この特に雪の時期に使いたいというのがあるので、夏もずっと使うかどうかはわからないですね。

そんな理由で、買うよりもレンタルしたほうがいいかなと言う考えになったので、いろいろ調べてみました。
結構高いものが多かったんですけど、今回はちょっと安めの月に2500円位で借りれるフィットネスバイクを選んでみました。これが家にあることで、雪が積もって外でランニングできないと言う時も自宅で心おきなく運動ができるはずです。多分できると思います。

昨日それをネットで申し込んだので、近々届くと思います。
また届いたら、使ってみた感想を話しますね。

みなさんは、今何か買いたいものはありますか？
ぜひオンラインレッスンでお話しましょう！

ということで、今回も最後まで聞いていただき、ありがとうございます！ではまた！
