There's a hidden mistake that makes you sound rude and unfriendly, even when you're trying to be polite. Most English learners never notice it.

 Common Mistakes Make You Sound Rude to Native Speakers

In today's episode, a Ukrainian student, Kateryna, talks about the day that she met the war, and how her life in Kiev has changed in recent months. This is not a political podcast; it is the heart-wrenching story from the mouth of one student who has been affected by the conflict. In the podcast, Kateryna talks about how she was over 1,000km from her children when the fighting started, and her journey to find safety as war raged around her. She also speaks about the little creature comforts she misses from home, and how her love for her husband has grown even stronger since the outbreak of the war. Most importantly, she talks about her hopes for the future, once the fighting has stopped. Listen now to Kateryna's moving story.

San Valentin

不知是一个冬天

还是一个春天

我独自登上

高高的山巅

太阳就在头顶

显得十分悠闲

大山却在脚下

听我和他攀谈

山呐

我小的时候

觉得你那样高远

只有天上云彩

才能做你的王冠

唔，还有

在我的眼中

你总是那样威严

张开臂膀压住大地

昂起头颅望青天

你爱和狂风厮打

迎击惊雷和闪电

一场又一场暴雨和细雨

冲洗你得胜的容颜

后来我渐渐长大

觉得你不再高远

我跑上山坡

像一朵小花飘在你胸。

你也不威严

总爱把自己装扮——

春的绿衣

夏的花褂

秋的红裙

冬的银衫……

有时你和风雨游戏

逗得雷电又叫又窜

有时你静静欣赏

小溪轻唱，小鸟鸣啭

山呐

你是我白天的朋友

梦中的伙伴

又是我无言的老师

多彩的答卷

不用说那个夏季

标本盒中的蝎子草

捕虫网里的凤尾蝶

也不用说那个秋季

油画板上的十月楓

作文簿上的丰收赞

就说今天

就说眼前

我又一次登上

你高高的峰峦

你的身后

仍是银光闪闪

你的前襟

却已绿绒斑斑

你仿佛告诉我

不要问这是一个冬天

还是一个春天

一位大诗人说过

冬天已经来临

春天还会遥远吗

唔，是啦，是啦

冬，有春的影子

春，就藏在冬天……

太阳在头顶

显得十分悠闲

我知道

他在偷听

我和大山的攀谈

诗意的人

听优美短文，提升中文阅读和写作

Episode 1

After a long break, we’re back—and what better way to kick things off than with a true Edmonton radio legend?

In this episode, I sit down with Terry Evans—longtime morning show host on K-97 and the voice behind the Reluctantly... podcast—for a real conversation about confidence, mistakes, and staying true to yourself when the pressure’s on.

We talk about how Terry got started in radio, some of the wild things that happen live on-air, what it really means to be confident (especially when you're nervous), and how to handle those tough, awkward conversations at work. It’s honest, funny, and packed with wisdom you’ll want to hear—especially if you’ve ever held back from speaking up because you were afraid of making a mistake.

Whether you’re learning English, trying to be more confident, or just love a good story from behind the mic—this episode is for you.
