In this episode we don't have a guest. I just talk a little about why I decided to create this podcast.

Portuguese With Caro

Why did I create this podcast?

Listening comprehension. Listen to this passage about our school and our responsibilities

Music, food, customs, traditions, dance, language, and many more form a culture. The list can keep going, but new cultures can be overwhelming. That's why the cultural shocks. So? What do we do with all the information?

Episode 2: How to Process the Cultural Input

Eng/gr
Is the alphabet of every culture and language an abstract one, based on agreement,
or is depicting the man's perception of the environment/ the "cosmos" around him?
What do the ΑΒΓ letters in Greek symbolize? Is there a specific object or good of man's daily life behind each letter's depiction? What is the meaning of it?
The Greek alphabet, which is the basis for the English word "alphabet," was adopted from the Phoenicians and is not directly based on a symbolic representation of objects or the cosmos for each letter, though the shapes have evolved from earlier symbolic scripts.
***
Είναι το αλφάβητο κάθε πολιτισμού και κάθε γλώσσας κάτι αφηρημένο, βασισμένο σε κάποια συμφωνία/σύμβαση ή απεικονίζει την πρόσληψη του ανθρώπου για το περιβάλλον/τον κόσμο γύρω του?
Τι συμβολίζουν τα γράμματα ΑΒΓ στα Ελληνικά; Μήπως πίσω από κάποιο γράμμα βρίσκεται κάποια απεικόνιση κάποιου συγκεκριμένου αντικειμένου από την καθημερινότητα του ανθρώπου; Ποια η σημασία του;
Το ελληνικό αλφάβητο, η βάση για την αγγλική λέξη «alphabet», προέρχεται από το Φοινικικό αλφάβητο και, αν και δεν βασίζεται άμεσα σε μια συμβολική αναπαράσταση το ίδιο, τα σχήματα των γραμμάτων του αποτελούν εξέλιξη παλαιότερων συμβολικών γραφών.

How to say “Happy Birthday” in Thai.

This is a phrase that you can use.
สุขสันต์วันเกิด
สุขสันต์ mean Happy
วันเกิด means Birthday
Let’s talk a little bit about สุขสันต์
Eventhough it means Happy, but it is not used in the sentence like “I am happy”.
If you want to say “I am happy”, then you’ll have to say ฉันมีความสุข
Normally you will find สุขสันต์ in a phrase like Happy Birthday, Happy Mother’s Day, Happy
Valentine’s day , etc.
I give you some example, Mothers’ day , In Thai we say วันแม่
So, when you want to say Happy Mother’s day , you will simply say สุขสันต์วันแม่
ok, how about วันพ่อ, วันพ่อ is Father’s day.
Now can you tell me how to say “Happy Father’s Day”.
Give you 3 seconds… 1…2….3 Yes, you got it. สุขสันตัวันพ่อ
When you want to send your birthday wish, some of the most common phrases to say is
ขอให้มีความสุข Wish you happy
ขอให้ร่ำรวย Wish you weathy
ขอให้สุขภาพแข็งแรง Wish you healthy
and sometimes, you want to send these 3 wishes at one time!
You can just join them together as
ขอให้มีความสุข ร่ำรวย สุขภาพแข็งแรง
Finally, any listeners who have a birthday today. This is my wish for you
ขอให้มีความสุข ร่ำรวย สุขภาพแข็งแรง ค่ะ

Step 1: Gist listening. Listen to get the main idea. (more times if necessary)
Step 2: Read the text to find out words you didn't get, then look up the dictionary. 
Step 3: Listen and imitate as much as you can without looking at the text.
Step 4: Write down what you hear if you want to practise writing.

大家好，我是Yuli。欢迎收听我的播客。
今天是9月29号，农历八月十五号中秋节。今年中秋节和国庆节离得很近，所以今天开始全国放8天假。因为出行的人很多，塞车很严重。即使要花十几个小时甚至更长的时间才能回到家，还是有千千万万的人选择回家过中秋节。为什么中秋节对中国人来说这么重要呢？
中秋节对于中国人来说，最大的意义就是团圆。从唐朝开始，人们就把天上的月圆和人间的团圆联系在一起了。离家在外的人举头望月，思念的是故乡和亲友。中国人重视亲情，阖家团圆便是最好的期盼。每逢中秋来临，中国960万平方公里的大地上，便有无数人奔走起来。他们有个共同的目标，回家。
回家路千千万万，有的回家路横穿中国，从上海到喀什，跨越三个时区，行程一万里。有的回家路沿着城市和乡村，用草原河流呼唤漂泊的游子。有的回家路随大海延伸，中国3.2万公里的海岸线，是对出海人平安回家的等待。有的回家路则是从四面八方，天南海北聚在一起，把他乡变成故乡。
虽然今天人们可以隔着屏幕相连，但与家人的相见，永远是心灵深处的渴望。同一屋檐下共赏明月，幸福平淡也绵长。
月亮，为什么大家都喜欢你？这个中秋，你回家了吗？中秋节快乐。让我们回家追月吧。
