Get ready for the four-day working week
Younger managers are much more open to the idea than their bosses and female leaders like it too. 

I will be discussing the four day working week from a UK prospective. Feel free to comment and let me know what you think about the four day week focusing on the benefits and negatives of the idea.

Series españolas (Spanish TV Shows)

In questo podcast faccio un'intervista ad un ragazzo italiano, di madre colombiana e padre italiano che si é trasferito un anno fa a Los Angeles, California, per studiare recitazione. Si parla sulle differenze culturali tra gli Stati Uniti e l'Italia, anche sul mondo del lavoro. Un altro aspetto è il fatto di essere cresciuto tra due culture: la cultura colombiana e quella italiana, parliamo anche sul suo percorso lingustico. Come tempi verbali: pasato prossimo, passato remoto, imperfetto, presente indicativo.

🌹 LA BELLA E LA BESTIA (The Beauty and the Beast)

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!
