Introduction

When you want to say "I'll keep you informed" or "I'll let you know" 📢
(A more natural alternative to saying "I will tell you the news")

Whether in a professional environment or among friends, use this phrase when you are waiting for information and want to tell someone that you will update them as soon as you find out:

💬 Keep (someone) posted.
/kiːp ˈpəʊstɪd/

✅ Examples for different levels:

🔸 B1 (Intermediate):
"Please keep me posted about the party tonight."

🔸 B2 (Upper-Intermediate):
"I’ll keep you posted on any changes to the flight schedule."

🔸 C1 (Advanced):
"We are still waiting for the lab results, but I’ll keep you posted as things develop."

今天给大家读一个成语故事 - 盲人摸象

中文故事

盲人摸象

In Chinese, both "jǐ" and "duōshǎo" mean "how much," but they are used very differently when shopping!
	
【Explanation】
“几 (jǐ)”：问小额 (Small Amounts)
Usually for things expected to be under 10 or very cheap (within a few tens).
Pinyin: jǐ kuài qián?
	
“多少 (duōshǎo)”：问大额 (Large/Unknown Amounts)
It can be used for any price, but it's essential when you expect a high price or are unsure of the range.
Pinyin: duōshǎo qián?
	
【例句 / Examples】
场景 A：在路边摊买一瓶水 (At a street stall for water)
🗣️ “老板，这水几块？”(Lǎobǎn, zhè shuǐ jǐ kuài?)
Expectation: It's cheap, maybe 2 or 3 RMB.
	
场景 B：在商场买手机 (In a mall for a phone)
🗣️ “请问，这个手机多少钱？”(Qǐngwèn, zhège shǒujī duōshǎo qián?)
Expectation: It's expensive, maybe thousands.

#22 英国激进环保组织朝梵高名画泼汤

こんばんは！Atsushiです。
みなさん、元気ですか？

今日は、札幌の紅葉について話します。
Podcast#110でも話しましたが、今回は11/8に実際に行って見てきましたので、その話をします。

昨日は札幌の北海道大学のイチョウ並木を見に行きました。
別にポプラ並木もあるみたいです。
これは、1903年に行われた小規模な植林が始まりです。
結構前からあるんですね。もう100年以上前です。
そして、2004年の台風では、半数近くのポプラが倒れたようです。それでも、たくさんの方の支援を受けたそうです。

イチョウ並木の方に話を戻します。
道の両側に真っ黄色のイチョウが立ち並び、
鮮やかに彩っていました。
とてもきれいでした。
写真を撮っている人がいたり、イチョウをながめながら歩く人もいたり。もちろん、大学生が帰っていたり。
大学の中にありますが、一般の人でも入ることができます。

まっすぐな道沿いに大きなイチョウが70本ほどあるので、いつの時期に行っても、楽しめると思います。

ということで、今回は北海道大学のイチョウ並木について話しました。

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！
