Fluent talk

Episode 1

En este podcast hablamos sobre el lunfardo en Argentina para que no te sorprendan las palabras como "bondi" ni las expresiones como "tirar los perros".

Porteña

Lunfardo

Главные торговые операции производились в городских рядах, в помещении, которое называлось амбаром. Вход в амбар был со двора, где всегда было сумрачно, пахло рогожами и стучали копытами по асфальту ломовые лошади. Дверь, очень скромная на вид, обитая железом, вела со двора в комнату с побуревшими от сырости, исписанными углем стенами и освещенную узким окном с железною решеткой, затем налево была другая комната, побольше и почище, с чугунною печью и двумя столами, но тоже с острожным окном: это — контора, и уж отсюда узкая каменная лестница вела во второй этаж, где находилось главное помещение. Это была довольно большая комната, но, благодаря постоянным сумеркам, низкому потолку и тесноте от ящиков, тюков и снующих людей, она производила на свежего человека такое же невзрачное впечатление, как обе нижние. Наверху и также в конторе на полках лежал товар в кипах, пачках и бумажных коробках, в расположении его не было видно ни порядка, ни красоты, и если бы там и сям из бумажных свертков сквозь дыры не выглядывали то пунцовые нити, то кисть, то конец бахромы, то сразу нельзя было бы догадаться, чем здесь торгуют. И при взгляде на эти помятые бумажные свертки и коробки не верилось, что на таких пустяках выручают миллионы и что тут, в амбаре, каждый день бывают заняты делом пятьдесят человек, не считая покупателей.

Dear children, welcome to our podcast for young French language learners! 🌟
Follow our short stories about little cat Léo 🐱 and learn new words in French. Today, we learn the expression of the day: "je cherche", which means "I look for". Enjoy the adventure! 🚀✨

FR: 🐱 Léo et la balle perdue 🎾
EN: Léo and the Lost Ball
Mot du jour : "chercher"
Expression of the day: "je cherche" ⇒ I look for

French: 🇫🇷
Léo, le petit chat, joue avec sa balle. 🎾
Il court, il saute… mais oh non ! 😲
La balle roule sous le canapé !

Léo regarde à gauche… il regarde à droite…
mais il ne trouve pas la balle.

Son copain Baguette, le chien, arrive. 🐶
— "Qu'est-ce que tu fais, Léo ?"
— "Je cherche ma balle !"

Baguette et Léo cherchent partout ! 🔍
Sous la table, derrière la chaise…
toujours pas de balle.

Soudain, Baguette regarde sous le canapé.
— "Léo, regarde ! Elle est là !"

Léo est content ! 🥳
— "Merci, Baguette ! Maintenant, on joue !"

English: 🇬🇧
Today, we learn the expression "je cherche".

Léo, the little cat, plays with his ball. 🎾
He runs, he jumps… but oh no! 😲
The ball rolls under the couch!

Léo looks to the left… he looks to the right…
but he cannot find the ball.

His friend Baguette, the dog, arrives. 🐶
— "What are you doing, Léo?"
— "I look for my ball!"

Baguette and Léo search everywhere! 🔍
Under the table, behind the chair…
still no ball.

Suddenly, Baguette looks under the couch.
— "Léo, look! It's there!"

Léo is happy! 🥳
— "Thank you, Baguette! Now, let's play!"

Practice Section:
Feel free to read the transcription in French and English below and listen to the story one more time. 🎧
Now, repeat after me: "JE cherche..."
Bravo! 👏

わたしのいろいろなはなし　LESSON13 　

「ネコのクロエちゃん」My cat Chloe


The aim of this lesson...
ペットのことを　話します。
to talk about pets!!



4)Text, Applied conversation practice, Extra thinking training　［3：05］ 


★★Text(Kanji)★★
クロエちゃんは　ネコです。うちに来てから、もうすぐ１年です。初めは　テレビの　後ろに　隠れていましたが、今は　ベッドの　真ん中で　グーグー寝ています。

かくれんぼが　大好きです。
わたしが　隠れると、クロエちゃんは　ニャーニャーなきながら、わたしを　探します。ご飯が　食べたいとき、口を　ペロペロしています。本当に　かわいいです。

そんなクロエちゃんを　見ていると、
元気な気持ちに　なります。クロエちゃんは　わたしの　癒しです。いつも　クロエちゃんに　癒されています。



★★Applied conversation practice★★
（Animal species）の（Pet Name）は　（Animal noises）なきながら、
・・・　What your pet does　・・・ます。


れい）〈いぬ〉ポチ、ワンワン、まいにち　げんかんで　ぼくを　むかえる（　He greets me at the door every day.　）
　1）　〈ねこ〉たまちゃん、ニャーニャー、わたしを　さがす
　2）　〈ブタ〉じろう、ブーブー、いえのなかを　うろうろする（　He wanders around the house.　）



★★Extra thinking training★★
「すると、いつも」の「と」は、どれですか。
Which is the “と” in “すると、いつも"?

れい）いぬの　ぷーすけは、おかあさんと　いっしょに　スーパーに　いきました。　×

れい）いぬの　ぷーすけは　おかあさんを　みると、とんで　よろこびます。　◎

１）いぬの　ぷーすけは、とりを　みて、「わん」と　なきました。
２）いぬの　ぷーすけは　ごはんを　たべると、すぐに　ねます。　


NOTE:
The sentence pattern “Vdic. と、～” means “Vます。すると、いつも～”. Therefore, the example sentence “いぬの　ぷーすけは　おかあさんを　みると、とんで　よころびます” means “いぬの　ぷーすけが　おかあさんを　みる→ いつもとんでよろこぶ”. It has the same meaning as “V る+とき ,” but with the added nuance of “いつも(always)”.

Japanese! わたしの いろいろな はなし

ネコのクロエちゃん（4）

Are you keeping going back and forth in your IELTS speaking?

Have you found yourself saying the same thing over and over again when you answer various part 1, 2, or 3 questions of the IELTS??

Students are too eager to try to be perfect, and with this perfectionism, they get stuck on being dissatisfied with what they are saying (almost always!). Have you had that?

In this podcast, I go over one element that can make a huge difference in your performance if corrected. 

You may feel enlightened just by noticing it and becoming aware of it, and once corrected, the rewards might surprise you.

Jump into the recording, improve yourself there, and check my availability if you are preparing for any kind of interview or English-speaking engagement ahead of you.

I've helped thousands of people succeed in the spoken English arena; I can do the same for you.
