In this episode, we’ll explore the difference between 收到 (shōudào) and 接受 (jiēshòu)! At first glance, they might both translate to “receive” or “accept” in English, but in Chinese, they have distinct meanings. One is more objective, while the other involves personal acceptance.

I read a book called Breathing in Colour, written by British author Clare Jay. In this book, a woman named Alida travels to India to find her missing daughter, Mia. The book also mentions synesthesia and lucid dreaming. I also talk about my experience with synesthesia.

Vocabulary:
synesthesia: when the senses are blended together
in my mind's eye: in my thoughts
lucid dreaming: when you realize it's a dream while you're dreaming
amnesia: when a person loses their memory
to get off on the wrong foot: to dislike each other at first

Hello and welcome!

My name is Paulius and I work as a Lithuanian and English tutor online. I have created this podcast for anyone who is interested in improving Lithuanian. While this show is mostly aimed at intermediate learners, you can still benefit from it even if you are a beginner, because I’m going to be speaking relatively slowly and I will try to avoid using difficult words.

Even if you feel that the podcast is hard to follow at first, no worries, I promise with time, it’s going to get easier. Language comprehension takes time and the more input you get, the easier it becomes to interpret and recall the newly learnt information. For this reason, I suggest listening to this podcast every or every other day for at least 5 to 10 minutes a time, re-listening some of the same content every few weeks or months. Once you get used to the various sounds, rhythms, sentence patterns, and so on, you will naturally want to listen more.

I suggest turning on the subtitles for a more comfortable listening experience. Install Language Reactor to translate the Lithuanian titles into your native language.

Also, if you wish to receive the full transcript of this episode, please head to my Patreon. There you will find all the podcast's transcripts, longer format Lithuanian with Paulius recordings and more.
