Informal English: Speaking about Age 

Try these tips during awkward silences or when you don't know what else to talk about.

1.   Don't reject your own ideas thinking that they are not worth sharing. When you filter most of your stories and experiences you have fewer topics to talk about. 
 
2.   Don't list your points, instead elaborate on each point using examples or personal experiences. This also gives the opportunity to the listener to add to the topic or share their own experiences making it a two-way conversation.
 
3.   Speak at the right pace. If you speak too fast, you end the conversation very quickly. It’s usually because the listener doesn’t understand you and therefore can’t keep the conversation going.  
 
4.   Learn to ask smart questions to keep the conversation going. Ask open-ended questions such as, “what do you think about …?” with follow-up questions “why do you think …?”. This helps you build up on the information that you received.
 
5.   Practise thinking critically so you always have something to say. When you practice critical thinking and ask yourself counter-questions, you are able to spontaneously think of ideas and form arguments using your background knowledge. You can easily connect the dots and be eloquent while talking to people.
 
6.   Learn a few speech frameworks such as Past - Present - Future, Problem – Solution - Benefit, or other storytelling formats such as ‘the mountain’. When you have a structure, you don’t lose your chain of thoughts and you don’t run into dead ends. Your listeners are also able to understand you better and remember what you said.
 
7.   If you are using a second language to communicate such as English, then simplify your complex thoughts in your native language first and then translate them to English. Lots of times when translation is tough, we give up and change the topic. But this practice helps you make the translation process easy.

Daily English Podcast Chapter # 12

みなさんこんにちは、みほです。いかがお過(す)ごしでしょうか。私のポッドキャスト「Mihongo Nihongo」へようこそ。このポッドキャストでは、私が短いエピソードを話します。内容(ないよう)についての質問をいくつか用意(ようい)しているので、音声(おんせい)を聞きながら質問の答えを考えてくださいね。

今日のエピソードは、「後悔(こうかい)する瞬間(しゅんかん)」です。質問は2つです。
①どうして私は夕方にコーヒーを飲んで後悔しますか。
②私はどんな時、夕方にコーヒーを飲みますか。

準備はいいですか？では始めましょう！


みなさんはどんな時後悔しますか。例えば、休みの日にうちでゴロゴロしていないで、出かければよかったとか、ポテトチップスを一袋(ひとふくろ)全部食べてしまった時とか、考えてみるといろいろあるかもしれませんね。私は夕方にコーヒーを飲んでしまったときです。理由は、ほぼ100％夜眠れなくなるからです。「たった１杯(いっぱい)飲んだだけなのにどうしてこんなに目が冴(さ)えてるの？」と夜中(よなか)に激(はげ)しく後悔します。それなら飲まなきゃいいのに、と思いますよね。その通(とお)りです！普段(ふだん)はなるべく夕方飲まないようにしているんですが、たまに仕事があるのにものすごく眠くて眠くてしょうがない時、つい飲んでしまうんです。もし、コーヒー以外(いがい)に眠気(ねむけ)を覚(さ)ますいい方法があったら教えてください。


ではもう一度質問を確認(かくにん)しましょう。

①どうして私は夕方にコーヒーを飲んで後悔しますか。
②私はどんな時、夕方にコーヒーを飲みますか。


答えです。
①夜、眠れなくなるからです。
②仕事があるのに眠くてしょうがない時に飲みます。

みなさんどうでしたか？答えられましたか？
それでは今日のポッドキャストはここまで。最後(さいご)まで聞いてくれてありがとうございました。また次回のポッドキャストでお会いしましょう！
またね〜！

#2 後悔(こうかい)する瞬間(しゅんかん)

Transcripción del episodio : 

«COMO y PORQUE en español
«Como» y «Porque» son dos nexos de tipo causal.

Como se utiliza siempre al principio de la frase:

«Como quiero aprender español, estoy estudiando mucho.»

Porque se utiliza siempre al final, es decir detrás de la oración principal:

«Estoy estudiando mucho, porque quiero aprender español.»

Recuerda, como al principio: «Como quiero aprender español, estudio mucho.»

Porque al final: «Estudio mucho, porque quiero aprender español.»

Gramatica para todos y todas 😐😋

COMO y PORQUE – ¿Cómo se utilizan y para qué sirven en español?, en menos de 2 minutos
