Episode 16 | Poisson d'Avril J’aimerais te parler du 1er Avril en France, c’est le jour des blagues et des farces en tous genres. La presse s’en donne à coeur-joie et les canulars fleurissent partout sur internet ce jour-là. Et prenez garde de ne pas vous présenter à une réunion importante avec un petit poisson en papier collé dans le dos. Voici l'histoire du Poisson d'Avril qu'on a imaginé avec mon chef il y a quelques années. Et toi as-tu déjà fait une blague à quelqu'un ?

Thai Tea La Nid - EP.2 - Thai People Like to Shorten Words?! 

Hello guys! Welcome back to the episode 2 of Thai Tea La Nid Podcast.

Today, we're going to talk about how Thai people really speak in daily life. 

Well, have you ever had a problem understanding Thai people speak? 

Hmm, it just doesn't sound like what you have learned from the textbook, right? 

I think one of the reasons might be because we always shorten words and we always skip the subject. 

OK, for example, how to ask what are you doing in Thai? 

From the textbook, you might say “kun gam-lang tam à-rai yòo ká”. I'll make it more natural. “kun gam-lang tam à-rai yòo ká”. 

Which is too formal and kind of too long because that's like six words or eight syllables. 

Okay, so let's start by skipping the subject first. 

From “kun gam-lang tam à-rai yòo ká”, we can say “gam-lang tam à-rai yòo ká”.

Ok now, let's shorten the words. You can say “tam à-rai yòo ká” or “tam rai ká”. 

That's the shortest version. 

Ok, let's practice again from like the full version to the shortest version, ok? 

“kun gam-lang tam à-rai yòo ká” 

“gam-lang tam à-rai yòo ká” 

“tam à-rai yòo ká”, and 

“tam rai ká”. 

Ok, so now you can understand more Thai and I hope you enjoyed this episode of Thai Tea La Nid. 

See you again next time. Bye bye.

CAPITULO 12 : ¿Cazando o pescando? 🐙 CHAPTER 12 : Hunting or fishing?

New York is known for its yellow taxis. They're everywhere: pushing through the busy streets like bees.

They are a symbol of the city and there are more than 13,500 of them buzzing around the "Big Apple."

That's a lot of taxis. But there are some other things buzzing around the city and they aren't always quite so easy to see — millionaires.

The city of yellow taxis is also the city of millionaires, and according to a new report there are about 26 times more millionaires in New York than there are taxis!

The 2024 World's Wealthiest Cities report, by investment company Henley and Partners, says New York has almost 350,000 millionaires.

That number grew by 48% between 2013 and 2023, and there are also 60 billionaires in the city.

But like so many wealthy cities, the gap between the rich and the poor in New York is big, and it's getting bigger.

According to 2023 data, the top 20% of earners in the city make almost six times as much as the bottom 20% of earners.

New York is also the world's second most expensive city to live in.

There are 11 US cities in the top 50 wealthiest cities in the world.

The Bay Area, which includes San Francisco and California's tech area of Silicon Valley is second in the list. More than 300,000 millionaires live there, along with 68 billionaires.

Tokyo is third with 298,000 millionaires, although the Japanese capital has seen a small decrease in the number of millionaires over the last 10 years.
