Did you know that ancient Greece had a huge influence on modern thought? Well, here are ten words which come from that time and culture. 
-
Chaos: Derived from the Greek word "khaos," meaning "abyss" or "emptiness," chaos refers to a state of disorder or confusion.

Democracy: Rooted in the Greek words "demos" (people) and "kratos" (power), democracy embodies the concept of government by the people.

Philosophy: Stemming from the Greek words "philos" (love) and "sophia" (wisdom), philosophy encompasses the pursuit of knowledge and the exploration of fundamental questions about life and existence.

Marathon: Inspired by the Greek city of Marathon, this word signifies a long-distance race that originated from the historical Battle of Marathon.

Eureka: Popularized by the ancient Greek mathematician Archimedes, "eureka" expresses the exhilaration of discovery or a sudden realization.

大家好，我是Yuli。欢迎收听我的播客。
今天想和大家聊一聊和“房子”有关的词。
我们一般说一套房子，房子里面有几个房间。一房一厅或者一室一厅指的是：一个房子里面有一个卧室和一个客厅。 那两房一厅就是指有两个卧室了。只有一个房间，没有客厅的那种房子我们叫单间。
去住酒店的时候，有几种酒店房型可以选择。单人房，里面有一张单人床，一般只能住一个人。大床房：里面有一张大床，适合两个人一起睡。双人房：有两张单人床，适合两个人住。套房：有两个以上的房间，带有一个客厅，当然还有卫生间、厨房等，适合一家人出游的时候住。商务房：一般带有两张单人床或者一张大床，适合出差的商务人员居住。
我们经常说的real estate，中文叫做房地产，包括房产和地产。在中国的一线城市，房价很高，大部分年轻人只能租房。但是对于中国人来说，房子非常重要，特别是结婚的时候，所以买房是大家努力的目标。全款买房几乎是不可能的事，一般是付了首付，然后每个月还房贷。因为房贷的压力很大，我们把买了房然后每个月要还房贷的人叫做“房奴”，房子的奴隶，mortgage slave。
如果你有一个房子出租，那你就是房东。租你的房子的人就是你的租客，或者房客。 
还有一些跟房子有关的词语。病房：生病住院的时候住的房间。例如：她是5号病房的护士。药房：在医院里面拿药的地方。例如：缴费后我去药房取药。厂房：生产产品的地方。 例如：这座厂房的面积是两千平方米。
你还知道哪些词？留言告诉我吧。我们下期见。
