Korean with Yuna

어린이날  Children's Day

Dear James,

As you know, we have been working on the new perfume that we are launching in April and we are unsure about some of the packaging details. We have seen some of your creative work in the sales department and we think you have a very good eye for detail.

Do you have some time before close of business this Friday to sit down with us and talk through some of our designs? We would truly appreciate your advice on this. It shouldn't take longer than two hours of your time and we would be happy to clear it with Patricia, your department head, if necessary.

Best regards,
Sarah Ford
Head of Department

Здоровенькі були, мої сміливці!

Сьогодні я хочу розповісти вам, як, відповідаючи на питання «Як справи?», звучати українською ще більш природно (одразу перепрошую за використання в епізоді неправильного "природньо").

Зазвичай ми кажемо: "Добре, дякую, а ви як? Все гаразд, непогано", або наше улюблене - "все нормально".

Але це все те ж саме що "I’m fine, thank you" в англійській мові, і цим уже точно нікого не здивуєш. Тож пропоную вам наступного разу використати один із наступних виразів:

- Помаленьку from the word мало (little)
Буквально це означає little by little, тобто slowly

- Потихеньку from the word тихо (quietly)
Вживається з аналогічним значенням slowly, bit by bit
Music credits: DRUD https://youtu.be/JkKDSZ9PxoA

Також можна скомбінувати ці два слова й тоді діалог звучатиме так:

-Як ти?
-Та помаленьку-потихеньку. А ти як?


І як би складно не було, зараз нам дуже важливо жити помаленьку, потихеньку, не поспішаючи, смакуючи кожну мить.


Ще почуємось! Па-па

Помаленьку чи потихеньку?

It might sound like the worst start to your day — you get into the shower, and it's ice cold. But while you might not enjoy it, a cold shower could actually be good for your health.

Spending time in cold water is not a new idea — the Ancient Greeks used cold water as a form of therapy as early as 3,500 BC. And things like cold water swims and ice baths have become quite popular around the world.

Experts believe there are a few reasons cold showers could be good for us.

Corey Simon, a doctor at Duke School of Medicine in the US, told CNN that having one or two cold showers a week helps him be more mentally present.

He believes the reason for this is that he has to mentally prepare himself for something stressful: the cold water. But once he's in it, he feels like he's in control of that stressor.

In fact, a 2022 study found that participants who showered for a minute in 10- to 14-degree water every day for two weeks had lower stress levels than a control group.

Cold showers could also be good for our immune system. In a study done in the Netherlands in 2016, people who spent 30 to 90 seconds in a cold shower took 29% fewer sick days from work.

Cold water has also been found to improve circulation, and can reduce muscle pain after a workout. Research suggests that taking a cold shower often could increase your metabolism too.

But experts say it's important to speak to your doctor before taking cold showers often, because it could be dangerous — especially for those with certain conditions, like heart or circulatory problems.
