La riqueza cultural de Colombia y sus costumbres

JANE: Hi, Helen! How’s it going?
HELEN: Fine, thanks — and you?
JANE: Just fine. Where are you off to?
HELEN: To the library. I’ve got a history exam next week 
and need to start studying. Ugh.
JANE: Oh, no. Well, I’ll see you later then. Good luck! 
HELEN: Thanks. See you later.


LANGUAGE NOTES
• “Hi” is an informal way of saying “hello.” Notice that the “i” sound in “hi” is extended, to 
show that Jane is very pleased to see Helen.
• “How’s it going?” is an informal way of saying “How are you?”
• “Fine, thanks—and you?” Notice the rising intonation on “and you?” This shows that 
Helen is interested in what Jane has to say.
• “Where are you off to?” is an informal way of saying “Where are you going?” Notice the 
falling intonation since this is an information question, not a “yes/no” question.
• “To the library.” Notice that Helen does not say “I’m going” here because that 
information was already established in the question “Where are you off to?”
• “Oh, no” is a way of saying “I sympathize with you” or “I understand you are not happy.”
• “See you later” is an informal way of saying “goodbye.”

Luca szeret korán kelni és kávéval kezdeni a napot. 😍
Egy ideje rászokott, hogy a kávéját nem otthon készíti el, hanem elmegy a kedvenc kávézójába. 
Ez ma reggel sem volt másképp. 😏
Ahogy benyitott a kávézóba, az ajtó csengő hangosan csilingelt. (...)

Luca és a kávézó☕️

Halo semua! Apa kabar? Bagaimana akhir minggu kalian? 
Hari Sabtu lalu saya punya janji dengan dokter gigi untuk membersihkan gigi saya.
Dokter gigi ini adalah dokter gigi baru di sekitar rumah saya.

Ketika dokter sedang membersihkan gigi saya, dia bilang di gigi bagian atas dan bawah ada beberapa lubang kecil. Lubang gigi artinya "虫歯” di Bahasa Jepang atau "cavity" di Bahasa Inggris. Hmm.. sebetulnya saya nggak merasa sakit apa pun, sih… 

Waktu dokter selesai membersihkan gigi dan saya mau membayar, dia berkata "Kamu perlu perawatan gigi 10 kali dari sekarang. Ayo kita buat janji untuk perawatan berikutnya". Saya langsung merasa sedikit aneh. Dokter ini mungkin mata duitan ya! Kalian bisa bayangkan arti dari "mata duitan" ? Hanya ada uang di matanya!
Kalau di Bahasa Jepang seperti ini, あの人はお金に執着している。
Kalau di Bahasa Inggris saya pikir artinya "money oriented". 

Jadi, saya memutuskan tidak mau pergi ke tempat dokter itu lagi. 
Kalian punya pengalaman dengan orang yang mata duitan? Kita harus selalu berhati-hati ya! 
Sampai di sini podcast saya kali ini. Sampai jumpa lagi ^^
