In this episode, we’re going to take a fun look at some old-fashioned Chinese phrases that we hardly use anymore! From '哪里哪里' to '行行好', these expressions were once common but have faded out of everyday conversations. I’ll teach you some updated alternative vocabulary and expressions, plus some interesting vocabulary along the way!

哪里哪里？We Seldom Use These Chinese Today!

Un milionario, il signor Guido Marchesi, viene assassinato in circostanze misteriose nella sua casa. L'ispettore Malvani, aiutato dal sergente Arimanno, si occupa del caso. I sospetti sono i tre eredi del defunto: Mauro, Carlo e Giovanni. Chi è l'assassino? E chi è il ladro dei fiori stranamente scomparsi dalla scena del delitto?  Agli ascoltatori il compito di scoprire la verità, scrivendo il nome del colpevole (o dei colpevoli) nella sezione dei commenti.

Hook

Pronunciation isn’t just about knowing the right sound — it’s about training the right movement. In this episode, we break down how your lips, tongue, jaw, and breath work together to improve English pronunciation and speaking clarity. Learn why speech is a motor skill and how small physical adjustments can dramatically improve your accent, confidence, and ability to speak English clearly.

Pronunciation Is Physical: Train Your Mouth, Not Just Your Brain

My mom and I finish the quiz about American dialects we started last week to discover whether we speak the same way as other people from our region.
During our conversation, we also discuss regional vocabulary and accents from distinct sociocultural regions across the United States, including the South, the West Coast, New England, Texas, the Midwest and more.
You'll certainly learn a bit more about regional American cultures as well!
This is only the second half of the quiz. Please listen to episode 006 Exploring American Dialects (Part One) for the first half!
