要不是亲眼所见，我简直不能相信：I couldn't believe it if I hadn't seen it with my own eyes:
这些争奇斗艳的贡品不是道具，它们都是“真“的：These competing tributes are not props, they are "real".
真正的面食、真正的民间艺人手工制作。Real flour, handmade by real folk artists.
它们叫做“面贡”。They are called "tributes made of flour".

Japanese cedar pollen hay fever season begins in Tokyo

"So" and "such" both mean "very," but there are rules for when you use either "so" or "such" in a sentence.  This episode explains.

The English Toolbox

So vs. Such

-ng - Endungen sind im Grunde wie im Englischen. Das G wird nicht ausgesprochen. 

Im Audio betone ich die -ng`s. 

Viel Spaß beim Zuhören, Erkennen und Mitlesen:

An einem stillen Morgen ging Lara singend den Pfad entlang. Die Strömung des Flusses rauschte leise, während Vögel in den Zweigen sangen. Langsam begann die Sonne, den Nebel zu durchdringen, und brachte Licht auf den Hang. Lara blieb stehen, blickte über die Wellen und hing ihren Gedanken nach.

Plötzlich sprang ein Hund aus dem Gebüsch und begann, um sie herumzuspringen. Lara griff nach einem langen Stock, schwang ihn weit und warf ihn ins Gras. Der Hund sprang los, brachte den Stock zurück und fing sofort an, weiterzuspielen. Lara lachte, während die Zeit verging.

Ein Klang von Kirchenglocken drang aus der Ferne und erinnerte Lara daran, dass es spät wurde. Doch sie blieb noch einen Moment stehen, um die Aussicht zu genießen. Der Wind rauschte durch die Zweige, während am Horizont ein bunter Drachen im Himmel hing. Es war ein Morgen voller Bewegung, Begegnung und Gesang.

Imperative verb in Hindi

안녕하세요? 2023년 5월 13일 한국어 강사 Sadie예요.
오늘은 일상생활 속에서 자주 시용되는 문법을 하나 배워볼까해요. 
Today, we are going to learn a grammar that is often used in everyday life.

* Vern stem + 아/어/해 본 적이 있다 (없다)

과거의 무언가를 시도한 경험의 유무를 물어볼 때 쓰는 표현이에요. 
Which means to have the experience of having tried something. 

예를 들어 볼게요. Let me give you a few examples.
- 가다 to go / 가 +(아)본 적이 있다 have been to
- 먹다 to eat / 먹+어 본 적이 있다  have tried
- 사용하다  to use / 사용+해 본 적이 있다  have used 
- 만나다 to meet / 만나+ (아)본 적이 있다 have met 

- 가다 to go / 가+본 적이 없다 have never been to 
- 먹다 to eat / 먹+어 본적이 없다 have never tried 
- 사용하다  to use / 사용+해 본적이 없다  have never used
- 만나다  to meet / 만나 +(아) 본 적이 없다 have never met 

- 저는 미국에 가 본 적이 있어요. I have been  to the U.S. 
- 한국 음식을 먹어 본 적이 없어요. I’ve never tried Korean food. 

그럼 짧은 대화를 통해서 이 표현이 어떻게 쓰이는지 들어볼까요? 
Let's listen to a short conversation using this expression

1) 
A 어제 명동에서 연예인을 만났어요.   Yesterday, I met a celebrity in Myeongdong. 
B 와， 난 지금까지 한 번도 연예인을 만난 적이 없어요.  Wow, I’ ve never met a celebrity.  

2)
A 시장에서 물건 값을 잘 깎아요? Can you bargain well at the market? 
B 아니요， 깎아 본 적이 없어요. No, I’ve never been able to bargain. 

어땠나요?  어렵지 않죠?  그럼 아래의 연습문제도 한번 해보시기 바랄게요. 

1. Have you seen this guy before? (to see = 보다, this guy = 이 남자) 
2. Have you attended before? (to attend 참석하다)

그럼  다음시간까지 안녕히 계세요.
