This podcast challenges the idea that two words really can have the same meaning. In each episode, we’ll compare two synonyms, and dig deep to find differences in connotation, formality, sense & more.

No Such Thing as a Synonym

Cześć! 
W pierwszym odcinku mini podcastu zastanowimy się nad użyciem słowa "gotować" w języku polskim. Niby to jest jasne, niby pojawia się na początku nauki, ale z drugiej strony często słyszę, że macie wątpliwości. Czas je rozwiać!

北海道Hokkaido生活 for Japanese learners

〈#14〉2022年3月11日金曜日　高校生がお弁当について考えた

“Well, as I’m still a uni  student, doing things on the cheap is something I've had to learn over the last few years, and just the weekend before last, myself and my 2 best mates had a really wonderful day out that cost next to nothing.




It was a bank holiday weekend, and we really wanted to have a special day out, as the weather forecast was perfect, and we really needed to get away from our studies. 




To do anything in the city, especially during a holiday weekend, always costs a lot of money, and as we were flat broke,  we decided to look for somewhere to go outside of the city. One of the guys came up with the idea of riding our bikes to a very beautiful park and lake, about 15 km outside of the city. 




We all agreed it would be a great idea, and each chipped in some cash, so we could buy some nice food in the local supermarket, as there is a barbeque area in the park which is free to use.
It turned out to be a really wonderful and special day, and was as cheap as chips, as riding our bikes meant there was no transport cost, and entry to the park was actually free. I think in total we spent about 24 dollars on the food between the three of us, and it really goes to show that it’s still possible to have a really special day out that doesn't cost an arm and a leg.

13. The Great Escape for real?! (신개념 예능 “대탈출”)

In this story, a snowman named Jingle is a selfish husband whose job is more important than his marriage. This is Part 4 of 5. 

The dance group had met in the morning for a quick rehearsal. Today was their last day to practice before the big show. 

Even though the other dancers commented that it was already good enough, Jingle and the winking snowwoman worked very hard on their close embrace. 

Then, while everyone was packing up, getting ready to go distribute their flyers… 

Ding-ding ding-ding 

The ringing came from behind Jingle. He said, “Ugh… Doesn’t Candy know how stressed I am? What does she want now?” 

He turned, but instead of his wife, he saw his snowman neighbour. Confused, Jingle went over to talk. 

“You look disturbed,” said Jingle. 

“It’s Candy. She’s been hit by a car.” 

Jingle was shocked. He noticed the neighbour was holding a candy cane. 

“This is her cane. I picked it up after the accident. I immediately called an ambulance and she was taken straight to the hospital. It’s bad, Jingle, really bad. Come with me, let’s go together.” 

Jingle hesitated. He looked at the candy cane, then at the dance group in the distance. Then back at the candy cane. 

“Thank you for bringing me this. But I can’t go with you. I’ve got to distribute these flyers today. It’s our last chance, and the whole group is counting on me. They need me. Tell Candy I’ll be there after work.”

MUSEO NACIONAL DE LA REVOLUCIÓN MEXICANA.

Bajo toneladas de concreto, a los pies del Monumento a la Revolución, y en los sótanos de lo que alguna vez se pensó sería el gran Palacio Legislativo del gobierno de Porfirio Díaz, vive el Museo Nacional de la Revolución, un espacio de vanguardia museística dedicado a la divulgación del proceso histórico de la Revolución Mexicana.

El Museo Nacional de la Revolución cuenta con tres áreas de exhibición: un Museo de sitio, donde se pueden apreciar las distintas etapas constructivas del Palacio Legislativo; una Sala de Exposiciones Temporales, donde periódicamente se exhiben diferentes muestras con temas específicos que complementan la información sobre el movimiento armado de 1910; y su Exposición Permanente, estructurada en orden temático y cronológico a través de ocho salas: La Consolidación del Estado mexicano, El Porfiriato, La Revolución democrática, La Revolución política, La Revolución popular, La Guerra Civil y la Constitución, Las bases del nuevo Estado mexicano y El Cardenismo

Entre sus principales atractivos está el conjunto de elementos escultóricos de fibra de vidrio y poliuretano que se ubican en la parte central del recinto y rinden homenaje a “La bola”, además de tener en sus vitrinas algunas de las principales piezas que conforman una de las colecciones más importantes en el país sobre el movimiento armado de 1910 y que cuenta con más de 3,300 objetos.
