HSK1-6 我会说汉语

Ho pensato che la meditazione, per tutti gli studenti di italiano che sono incuriositi dal mondo della spiritualità e della crescita personale, possa essere un modo alternativo e incredibile per approcciarsi alla lingua d’apprendimento, in questo caso l’italiana. Potreste stabilire la lingua italiana come la vostra “lingua della meditazione”! Facendo ciò avreste la possibilità di creare un dialogo interiore in italiano, creando una connessione incredibile con questa lingua.
 
Questa puntata è una semplice meditazione guidata dove realizzo: tecniche di respirazione mindfulness, un piccolo scanner corporale, do alcuni consigli su come meditare.  
Spero vi piaccia l’idea.
Con affetto, Sara

PATTY: I’m really excited for Aunt Mary’s surprise birthday party
this afternoon! Aren’t you?
SUSAN: Yeah! How old is she?
PATTY:  She’ll be 55 on May 14 [fourteenth].
SUSAN: Wow! I didn’t know that my mom was older — she’s going
to be 57 on September 2 [second]. Anyway, Aunt Mary’s 
going to be so surprised to see us all here!
PATTY: I know! But we still have to get all the food set up before 
she gets here … OK! We’re all ready now. Shh! She’s here!
ALL: Surprise!


LANGUAGE NOTES
• I’m really excited … Notice the emphasis on “really.” “Really” is used to emphasize the 
adjective “excited” here.
• Birthday party Notice that the normal stress for a compound noun falls on the first 
element of the compound.
• Aren’t you? This negative tag is used to show that the speaker expects a positive 
answer. Patty assumes that Susan is also looking forward to the party.
• She’ll be 55 Notice that “55” is stressed here. This detail answers the question “How 
old is she?”
• Fourteenth Notice that we use “th” for ordinal numbers, starting with 4 [but first, 
second and third]. The stress is on the second syllable [fourTEENTH]. Compare this with 
“fortieth: 40th” [FORtieth].
• She’s going to be ... Notice how this is pronounced like “gonna be.” Instead of four 
syllables “go/ing/to/be” there are three syllables “ga/na/be.”

In this episode 10 of English on the road, we discuss an article on which countries can claim to be the oldest in the world. I hope this podcast allows you to practice your English listening and comprehension.

The podcast begins with some vocabulary which is important to the topic, then we read the article and answer some discussion questions. 

The article is from a website called engoo which has many free English learning materials. I highly recommend checking this out if you want to study English independently or with a tutor. 

Thank you for listening and I hope you have a great day!

Today I'm talking about evening shower, which we call it "Yuudachi".
It is heavy rain with thunder. It suddenly comes and suprises us.
I'll try to express yuudachi by its sounds.  Please listen to today's podcast! Thank you!

回　ポッドキャストをアップしてから　ちょっとご無沙汰してしまいました。
みなさん、お元気でしたか？
夏休みは　どこかに旅行にいきましたか？

私は特にどこかに行くということもありませんでした。
したことといえば、朝５時半からのウオーキングとラジオ体操。それから　週１，２回の水泳ぐらいです。少しは運動不足を解消できたのではないかと思います。

ところで、私の住んでいる関西エリアでは　お盆を過ぎてから、毎日のように夕立がありました。今日が８月２７日ですから、かれこれ１週間ほど　毎日です。
夕立とは　夕方に降る雨のことです。
だいたい夏の夕方に、雷とともに降り出す雨です。
どんな感じかというと、まず、空に黒く分厚い雲があらわれ、小さくごろごろごろごろと雷の音が聞こえ始めます。その雷の音が少しずつ近づき、だんだん音が大きくなってきます。
しばらく、ごろごろと音が続いた後に、ポツ、ポツっと小さな雨粒が　降ってきます。
このぐらいの間に屋根があるところに　逃げなければいけません。
そして、５分もすると、ザアーっといっきに　シャワーを全開にしたように雨が降り出します。
そして、ピカっと空が光ったかと思うと、ものすごい大きな音の雷が　バリバリバリ　とすぐ近くで鳴ったりします。正直、めちゃくちゃ怖いです。
テレビをつけていると、雷の影響を受けて　映像がぐにゃぐにゃと変にゆがんだりすることもあります。
では、夕立を音で最初から表現します。
ごろごろ　ごろごろ
ポツ　ポツ　　　　ポツ　ポツ
ごろごろごろごろごろ
ポツポツポツポツポ
ぴかっ！
ごろごろ！
ザアー
ぴか！
バリバリバリバリ
ざあー！！！！
夕立の音でした。みなさんも急な雨と雷には気を付けてくださいね。
