No episódio de hoje, vamos falar sobre a expressão idiomática "Meter os pés pelas mãos", uma expressão usada em língua portuguesa no Brasil em diferentes contextos para descrever pessoas desajeitadas que cometeram erros por não pensarem muito bem nas consequências de suas ações. Acompanhe o podcast "Colorindo o Diálogo" na voz da professora Camila Ramos.

Colorindo o Diálogo -  Português do Brasil

Meter os pés pelas mãos

Welcome to the American English Pronunciation Guide. My name is Trevor Kafka, and I am your host.

There are many different varieties of American English. I was born and raised in New York, which has given me General American English pronunciation. The English that I speak has 15 vowel sounds. 

Please view the transcript for help while listening.

Today, we will talk about the vowel sound number 2 of 15: /eɪ/ grey day. This vowel is what we call a diphthong, meaning that it’s really two vowel sounds smooshed together as one. The mouth begins very open when the sound begins, but then turns into a smile as the teeth come together.

Listen to me saying this sound and repeat: /eɪ/, /eɪ/, /eɪ/

Listen to and repeat the following single-syllable words:
gray
day
pain
whale
waste
straight
tail
wait
shade

Listen to and repeat the following multiple-syllable words:
chamber
embrace
greatest
labor
vacation
translate
Canadian
information

Listen to and repeat the following sentences:
The way you say “gray” makes my day quite okay.
I embrace the shade to stay out of the sun’s rays.
The greatest of Canadian vacations have no space for rain.

I would like to thank Shirley Thompson and Karen Taylor for their work in developing the set of key phrases that I use with each vowel, such as /æ/ black cat, /eɪ/ grey day, etc.

Episode 31：お気に入りのカレンダー

Hace unas semanas, en un audio-artículo de este blog escribí y hablé de la pérdida de fonemas conforme las lenguas se iban expandiendo por este planeta, obviamente al ritmo de la expansión humana. ¿Sí? Pues hoy en día, que no queda nada por ser descubierto por nuestros ojos y todo el mundo cabe en un dispositivo electrónico con conexión a Internet, el proceso de “simplificación” sigue su curso.

Comprimiéndose.

はい、こんにちは。今回はポッドキャストのシーズン２の10回目です。最近ポッドキャストの再生数が一定数を超えたので、Anchorのアンバサダーの招待が来ました。Spotifyのフォロワーもたくさん増えていました。いつも聞いてくださって本当にありがとうございます。先週は新しい記事を書きました。日本の病院の文化について書きました。ウェブサイトにアップロードしています。日本に行く予定がある人は、ぜひチェックしてみてください。
Hello, this is episode 10 of season 2 of my podcast. I recently received an invitation to be an ambassador for Anchor as my podcast has recently reached a certain number of plays, and I've also gained a lot of followers on Spotify, so I'd like to thank you all for listening to my podcast and for your support. Last week I wrote a new article. I wrote about the culture of Japanese clinics. It is uploaded on my website. If you are planning to visit Japan, please check it out.
今日は大阪マラソンの日でした。家の近くの道路はマラソンのコースになっていたので、たくさん警備員がいました。マラソンを走っていたのは半分ぐらい女性でした。調べたら、参加者の24%ぐらいが女性だそうです。また、外国人の参加者が増えているようです。今年は9回目の大会だそうですが、1回目に比べると約10倍に増えています。外国人で一番多いのは香港の人です。香港は「香港国際マラソン」の開催地です。約7万人が参加するそうです。だから香港にはマラソンをする人が多いのかもしれません。
Today was the day of the Osaka Marathon. The road near my house was the course of the marathon, so there were many security guards. Half of the people running the marathon were women. I found out that about 24% of the participants were women. Also, the number of foreign participants seems to be increasing. This year is the ninth marathon, and compared to the first one, the number of foreign participants has increased by about ten times. The largest number of foreigners are from Hong Kong. Hong Kong is the host of the Hong Kong International Marathon. Around 70,000 people take part in this event. Maybe that is why there are so many marathon runners in Hong Kong.
最近は体調を崩していたので、少し気分が落ち込んでいました。でも、いいことを発見しました。昨日の午後、久しぶりに美容院に行きました。そこでシャンプーがとてもいい香りに感じました。不思議に思ったので、美容院で同じ香りのヘアオイルを買って帰りました。このオイルはオーガニックで、たくさんのハーブが使われています。この香りを嗅いでいると、とても気分が落ち着きます。調べたら、アロマセラピーには心理学的効果だけではなく、医学的効果も認められているんですね。
