No More Mummies (with transcript for study)

One of the most incredible entertainments in the world, Carnival is a four-day celebration of music, dance, food and drink, all over Rio. The event means a lot to the people from the poorest neighborhoods, who work hard for months preparing for it. It is an opportunity for the whole community to go out and have fun together. It ends with the Samba Parade for which the performers and dancers dress up in the most amazing costumes.

In this podcast, we talk about the following ten words:
Souvenir: Derived from the French word "souvenir," meaning "to remember," this word entered English in the late 18th century. It refers to an object or memento that serves as a reminder of a person, place, or event.

Rendezvous: Originating from the French phrase "rendez-vous," which means "meeting" or "appointment," this word entered English in the 16th century. 

Cuisine: Borrowed directly from French, "cuisine" refers to a style or method of cooking, often associated with a particular culture or region. It encompasses the preparation and presentation of food.

Fiancé/Fiancée: These terms come from the French words "fiancé" (masculine) and "fiancée" (feminine), both meaning "engaged." They are used to describe a person who is engaged to be married.

Déjà vu: This widely recognized phrase comes from French, where it literally means "already seen." It refers to the feeling or sensation that one has experienced the present situation before, even though it is new.

Encore: Borrowed from French, "encore" means "again" or "once more." It is often used in the context of a performance to request an additional or repeated act from the performer.

Lingerie: Derived from the French word "lingerie," this term refers to women's underwear and intimate apparel. It encompasses a range of garments, including bras, panties, nightgowns, and robes.

Décor: Also borrowed from French, "décor" denotes the overall style, arrangement, and aesthetics of a space or setting. It refers to the decorative elements used to enhance the ambiance or atmosphere.

Croissant: This word, of French origin, describes a flaky and crescent-shaped pastry. It has become popular worldwide and is often enjoyed as a breakfast or snack item.

Ballet: Originating from French, "ballet" refers to a highly expressive and intricate form of dance. It combines precise movements, graceful gestures, and storytelling to create a visual spectacle.

こんばんは！
Japanese daily life podcast のAtsushiです。
このPodcastは、日本語を勉強しているみなさんに向けたPodcastです。


今日もN4です！
〜たばかり、をします。 今〜がおわった、という時につかいます。


では、早速例文いきましょう！

・日本に来たばかりなので、わからないことがたくさんあります。

・トルコ語を勉強しはじめたばかりなので、まだわかりません。

・昨日買ったばかりの本をなくしました。

・今起きたばかりで、頭がまわってません。

・引っ越したばかりで、いい街かどうかよくわかりません。


こんな感じですね！
どうですか？

必ず今とか、さっきという時だけ使うわけではなくて、個人的にそれが終わってから時間、期間が短いと感じるならこの表現はOKです！

なので、1年前の話をするときでも、ぼくが期間が短いと感じていれば使うとことができます。

例えば、1年前に北海道に引っ越してきたばかりですが、北海道のことが大好きです。


とか使っても大丈夫です！👍
いつも通り、一緒に声に出したり、例文作ってみてくださいね！

ということで、今回も最後まで聞いていただき、ありがとうございます！ではまた！
