Thinking out loud in Japanese

タイムリーなわだい

大家好，我是潘妮，欢迎来到古典智慧拾贝。在这里，我主要与大家分享中国古代的思想家的智慧。

今天这句话来自《论语》，是一本儒家经典。《论语》是讲述孔子说的话，还有他和他的弟子们的对话。

见贤思齐焉，见不贤而内自省也。这句话的意思是，看到别人的美德，就想着向他学习，看到没有仁德的人，就要反省自己有没有相同的过失。

孔子给了我们很多做人的指导和启发。许多人看到别人的美德，受到大家的尊敬，不但不去学习，反而会有嫉妒心。这样的人，孔子就说他是“小人”，而不是君子。

如果能做到“见贤思齐”，你一定会越来越成长，越来越进步，越来越能受到大家的尊重。

谢谢你的收听，我们下次见。

Hello everyone, my name is Penny, welcome to this channel. In this channel, I will share with you wisdoms of Chinese thinkers and philosophers from the past.

Today's phrase comes from the Analects of Confucius, a Confucian classic. The Analects of Confucius tells the story of what Confucius said and his conversations with his disciples.

Seeing the wise, think about doing the same wise; seeing the non-wise, think about reflecting on your own faults. The meaning of this sentence is that when you see the virtues of others, you learn from them, and when you see people without virtues, you must reflect on whether you have the same faults.

Confucius gave us a lot of guidance and inspiration on how to live a life. Many people, seeing the virtue of others and being respected by everyone, will not only learn, but would be jealous. Such a person, Confucius said he is a "small man", not a noble man.

If you can do this over time, you will have more growth, make more progress, and be more respected by everyone to become a modern time “noble man”.

Thanks for your listening and see you next time.

Disc Golf

Welcome back to another episode of Streetwise English. I'm your host, Carl. Today I want to talk to you about a new sport. This sport is growing, and it is very similar to golf. However, this is disc golf. So disc golf is like golf, except for you use a disc and instead of holes there are baskets and you will see the baskets with these chains hanging down and with a kind of a bucket thing.

And you throw the disc or the Frisbee into the chains. And then that counts  like putting the ball into a hole in golf. So the sport is great because there are a lot of free courses that you can play disc golf or Frisbee golf in. And just like golf, there are usually nine or 18 holes or baskets.

And the goal is to throw the disc, the Frisbee into the basket with as few throws as possible. So, for example, like in golf, you might have a course that is like par, par three. It takes three shots to get it into the hole So the same thing with disc golf, you have a par three course or par four.

So you're trying to get the disc into the basket in three throws or less. Now, some of the challenges with the disc golf courses are trees or obstacles. So sometimes the course will have a tree in the way and you'll have to throw the disc in a way that the disc curves around and goes around the tree so that you can get a clear look at the basket. Another interesting thing is that the discs are made of plastic according to Wikipedia.

Here it says that the discs are made of polypropylene, which is a thermoplastic polymer resin. So it's a very dense plastic And they're smaller in size than a Frisbee that you think of. Like from when I was a kid, I remember the Frisbees were quite large. But these Frisbees are small and there are different Frisbees for different throws.

こんばんは！
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。


さて、今回も海外旅行の続きですね。
オランダのマーストリヒトにつきました！
という続きです。

着いたのは夜10時ぐらいでした。
遅い時間に歩くのはあんまりしたくなかったんですが、バスに乗る時間が遅かったので、やむを得ずそうしました。

マーストリヒトに無事着いて、そこから30分ほど歩かないといけなかったので、早速歩き始めました。駅前の小さいスーパーが閉まる前だったので急いで入って、少しだけ朝ごはんを買いました。

そこから駅前の道をまっすぐ歩いて行きました。
駅前の雰囲気はとても良く、夜ですが、ライトはたくさんついていて、安全な感じでした。

マーストリヒトのイメージは日本の京都のような感じでした。たぶん、もっと小さい街だと思いますが、昔の古き良き建物を残して街を新しくしている感じがしました。

レストランやカフェ、服屋など店はたくさんあり、ほとんど閉まっていましたが、道沿いのライトはついていたので歩きやすかったです。

歩いている人は少なかったですが、みんなリラックスして歩いている感じだったので、緊張することなく、安心して歩きました。

そして、Airbnbで予約した場所につきました。
少し迷いましたが、ホストに無事会えてカギをもらい、入ることができました。

とてもフレンドリーな方で、そして部屋もとても良い感じでとても気に入りました。

次の日は、ゆっくり街を歩く日にしていました。
ドイツではせわしなく、忙しなく、忙しく動いていたので、オランダはゆっくりする予定でした。

ということで、次のPodcastでは、マーストリヒトの街を歩いた話をしますね。

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！
