Hablemos de Terror – El Conjuro

Host 1 (Carlos): ¡Bienvenidos a Hablemos de Terror! El podcast donde analizamos las películas más aterradoras. Hoy hablaremos de El Conjuro. Yo soy Carlos.

Host 2 (Ana): Y yo soy Ana. El Conjuro es una de las películas de terror más escalofriantes que he visto. La primera vez que la vi, no pude dormir en días.

Carlos: Sí, la historia está basada en hechos reales. Se supone que todo lo que les pasó a los Warren realmente ocurrió. ¿Tú crees en fantasmas?

Ana: La verdad… después de ver esta película, empecé a dudar. La manera en que construye el suspenso es increíble.

Carlos: ¡Totalmente! La atmósfera, la música, la casa oscura… todo da miedo. ¿Qué escena te pareció la más aterradora?

Ana: Sin duda, cuando la madre es arrastrada por una fuerza invisible. Yo estaba gritando frente a la pantalla. ¿Y a ti cuál te asustó más?

Carlos: La del juego de las palmas. Cuando la niña está en el sótano y de repente se escuchan dos palmadas detrás de ella… ¡Me congelé del miedo!

Ana: ¡Sí, esa escena es brutal! Y los actores hicieron un trabajo increíble. Vera Farmiga y Patrick Wilson realmente parecían los Warren.

Carlos: Eso es lo que hace que la película sea tan aterradora. No es solo efectos baratos, sino que te mete en la historia.

Ana: Exacto. Y lo más loco es que la familia Perron, en la vida real, realmente vivió en esa casa embrujada. ¿Te atreverías a pasar una noche ahí?

Carlos: ¡Ni loco! Me encanta ver películas de terror, pero vivir una… ¡jamás!

Ana: Yo tampoco. Solo pensarlo me pone los pelos de punta. Bueno, del 1 al 10, ¿qué tan aterradora te pareció El Conjuro?

Carlos: Le doy un 9. Es de las más terroríficas que he visto. ¿Y tú?

Ana: Para mí, un 10. Aún tengo pesadillas con ella.

Carlos: Bueno, hasta aquí el episodio de hoy en Hablemos de Terror. Dígannos en los comentarios qué película de miedo quieren que analicemos la próxima vez.

Ana: No olviden suscribirse… ¡y recuerden, nunca jueguen con espíritus!

Hello. Today, I will talk a little about the way to say "20 years old" that comes up in the first Chapter of Minna no Nihongo.
At 20 years old, it’s fine to say “にじゅっさい” (nijussai), but there’s also another way to say it: “はたち” (hatachi).　Japanese counters can be challenging to remember, as they are not “いちさい” (ichisai) but rather “いっさい” (issai), and not “しちさい” (shichisai) but “ななさい” (nanasai). Occasionally, there are completely different expressions, like for 20 years old. It can be difficult, but let’s do your best to memorize them.

As for “はたち,” in Lesson 5, the date “20th”  is also expressed as “はつか.” Perhaps ancient Japanese people used the character “は” to mean 20. Connecting these two ideas might make it a bit easier to remember. Keep up the good work!

Now, a little update regarding my course: I have launched a new Minna no Nihongo course. The content is exactly the same, but it can be taken with two people. It’s also possible with three or more, but in that case, the lesson fee will change a little bit.
Of course, just like the regular Minna no Nihongo course, there will be plenty of homework. If anyone would like to take it with a friend, please give it a try!

Alright, everyone, keep studying hard!

Staying healthy can be difficult — it might mean we don't always get to eat and drink the things we want.

Sometimes we have to sacrifice some sweet things because we know they're not such a good idea!

But how far would you go to make sure you have a healthy diet?

A new survey has found that almost a quarter of people in the UK don't enjoy their meals because they put health before taste.

That means they're choosing to eat meals they don't like just because they're healthy.

However, the survey, by a bread company called Warburtons, also found that 74% of people aged between 25 and 44 aren't quite sure how to eat a balanced diet.

So it's perhaps not a surprise that people are eating meals they don't enjoy!

It's true that foods full of sugar, salt and butter can taste good, but experts say that healthy meals can taste great too.

And we can still enjoy some tasty things as part of a healthy diet.

In fact, some experts say that we shouldn't think of foods as "good" or "bad" — we should be able to enjoy everything in moderation.

This is something that older adults are better at, according to the survey, which included 2,000 people in the UK.

Adults over the age of 65 were most likely to put their enjoyment first when making food. Younger people admitted to eating meals in front of others to look like they're healthy — even if they don't like the food.

The Language Bro

Functional Languages

On a Monday morning or after a night out with friends, staying focused in class can feel impossible. You yawn, your eyes feel tired and the desk starts to look increasingly attractive as a temporary bed of sorts. It’s time to reach out for some of your brain’s favourite attention and memory boosters and wake up again.

So before next Monday’s class – whether back home or in an EF school somewhere on the other side of the world – whip up a blueberry shake, drink a cup of coffee, eat some nuts or go nuts and eat a baked potato for lunch. Your brain and your teacher will thank you, trust us.

Our top 5 brain foods:

1. A strong cup of coffee

Every student knows that the local barista that makes that daily morning cup is their best friend. Coffee is really good for waking you up and keeping you focused for a short amount of time, but drink too much and you’ll feel jittery and ill.

2. A fruit shake

Preferably with super healthy blueberries and with natural sugars in the form of glucose, a fruit shake can provide a short-term memory boost in addition to vitamins and minerals that your whole body needs. Overdo it and you’re likely to feel tired soon after.

3. A handful of dark chocolate pieces and nuts

They’re as brain-boosting as anything (dark chocolate even has some caffeine) and they’re anti-ageing too.

4. Fish and baked potatoes for lunch

We know, we know – they’re not the most attractive items on the menu, but your brain loves both. Salmon and other fatty fish have loads of Omega-3 fats that boost memory and slow your brain’s decline as you age, while potatoes provide steady energy that your brain really needs (it takes up 20% of your body’s energy!)

5. Pumpkin seeds
They’re full of zinc, iron and minerals that help transport oxygen to the brain, and nerve cells to communicate and boost your brain power. A great cheap and healthy snack.
