Mrs. Frisby and the Rats of NIMH 

Chapter 11 In The Library

En el episodio de hoy del podcast, hablaremos sobre el uso de la palabra “bien”. Vamos a ver sus usos. Son muchas las ocasiones en las que pudo observar que "bien", "bueno" y "buen" suelen ser motivo de confusión entre los estudiantes de español. Así que, para tratar de solucionar dicha confusión, hoy veremos qué significan y cuándo usamos estas palabras en español y cuál es la diferencia entre ellas.

--------------------------------------------------
As a beginner, there're some vocabularies that you didn't learn before, and native speaker's speed seems too fast to understand. But don't worry, let's do it step by step. 
Step 1: listen and catch the words you know already, have a guess about the content.
Step 2: look at the text to check if you guessed it right. 
Step 3: listen one more time, repeat after it.
Step 4: practice until you can speak as the normal speed without looking at the text.

Blanca to go

It's summer. You're on the beach, by the pool or in the garden — it might be time to get your swimwear out!

But if you're talking about swimwear in English, there's a small problem: there are many different words for it.

"Swimwear" can be used for anything you put on to go in the water, whether you're male or female, so it's always a safe choice of word.

You might also hear "swimmers" used by people from Australia. This means the same thing, and it's always used with the "s" on the end.

In Australia, New Zealand and Ireland, swimwear will also often be called "togs."

And Australians also say "bathers." It's short for "bathing suit," which in British English usually refers to women's one-piece swimwear, but in American English can be anything you wear to swim in.

Anything you swim in can also be called a "swimsuit."

"One-piece" can be used on its own to refer to women's swimwear that's made from one piece of material, as opposed to a two-piece swimsuit like a bikini.

In the UK, the term "swimming costume" also tends to be used to talk about female swimwear. Some British and Australian English speakers might shorten this to "cozzie" — sometimes spelled "cossie," but said the same.

In the US or Britain, men going to the beach shouldn't forget their "swimming trunks." These are the casual shorts people often wear. You'll hear these called "board shorts" or "boardies" in Australia.

Men who are going for a serious swim might choose "Speedos."

Speedo is the name of a swimwear company, but the word is now used across the world for the tight briefs men might wear when they want to swim very fast.

こんにちは！
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。

今日は、大寒波！について。
日本は今、今年1番の寒さになっています。
こういう時、大寒波を迎えた(だいかんぱをむかえた)などといいます。

今回の寒波は、10年に1度の寒さ、とも言われています。
昨日は北海道や東北も雪が降りましたが、西日本、鳥取や岡山、京都、滋賀などが大変だったようです。

電車が数時間止まったりしたようで、とても大変だったみたいですね。北海道などは除雪車が雪の翌日は必ず通るので、大丈夫なんですが、西日本だと基本的には除雪車はないかもしれないので、こういう時は結構大変です。

僕も鳥取に住んでいる時に雪が結構積もったことがありました。家の駐車場から車を出す為に雪かきしないといけないですし、大きな道路に出るまでの道は雪が積もったままなので、本当に大変だった記憶があります。

北海道では、もちろん場所によると思いますが、僕が住んでいる千歳では、小さな道でもだいたい除雪されているので、移動で苦労することは少ないですね。

日本語のレッスンでいろんな国の方と話していますが、今いろんな国でも気温が下がっているようですね。


外に出るのも大変なので、家で過ごせるようにいろいろと買っておかないといけないですね。北海道では、知り合いに聞くと、家は25℃ぐらいにしておく、食べ物は3日間分ぐらい買っておく、ガスコンロや水を用意しておく

ことが大切みたいです。

実際に停電になることもあるようなので、しっかり準備しておこうと思います。

みなさんも、気をつけてくださいね！
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！
