最近、道にたくさんのりんごが落ちています。
私はりんごが好きなので年中りんごを食べています。最近はスーパーでりんごを買わずに、道で拾ったりんごをよく食べています。このりんごは売っているりんごよりもすっぱいので、そのまま食べるとあまりおいしくありません。なので、昨日アップルパイを作りました。冷凍のパイ生地を使ったので、とても簡単でおいしくできました。
そろそろ栗も出てくる季節なのでオーブンで栗を焼いて食べるのも楽しみです。でも、今ヨーロッパの電気代はとても上がっているので、今年は少しオーブンを使うのを控えた方がいいかもしれません。

みなさんにとって秋の食べ物といえばなんですか？
よかったら私のレッスンに来て教えて下さい。

Die deutschen Dialekte

(A)  Grob geschätzt gibt es in Deutschland etwa 20 Dialekte. Wenn man allerdings genau hinsieht, sind es erheblich mehr, denn die einzelnen Mundarten lassen sich kaum voneinander ABGRENZEN. 
(B)  Es ist jedoch eine Tatsache, dass der Bewohner Hamburgs im Norden den Münchner im Süden nur mit Mühe versteht und dass der Württemberger für einen Film, in dem Plattdeutsch gesprochen wird, vermutlich Untertitel braucht. 

(C)  Sprachforscher beklagen, dass die Dialekte zugunsten des Hochdeutschen mehr und mehr in Vergessenheit geraten. Das ist schade, denn ein Dialekt hat reiche Ausdrucksformen, die auch die Kultur seiner Sprecher WIDERSPIEGELN. Leider ist dieser Niedergang im Zeitalter der Medien und der großen Mobilität der Bevölkerung kaum noch aufzuhalten.

(D)  Interessanterweise stellte sich bei einer UMFRAGE heraus, dass mehr als ein Viertel der Deutschen das „Bayerische“ gerne hört, während „Sächsisch“ auf dem letzten Platz der Beliebtheitsskala der Dialekte landete.

Today we are going to learn how to say hello in Chinese. You will definitely find this in all Chinese textbooks. Hello in Chinese is 你好 nǐ hǎo. 你 means you，好means good，so 你好together also means wish you well, which shows our sincere and best wishes to people we meet. 

In everyday life, we use this expression to greet people, but usually to someone who is not our close friend or family member. You can use 你好 nǐ hǎo to greet your co-workers, someone you have just met. 

rú ɡuǒ nǐ jiàn dào le nǐ de hǎo pénɡ you ， nǐ duì tā shuō nǐ hǎo ， tā huì jué dé yóu diǎn qí ɡuài 
如 果      你 见   到  了 你 的 好  朋   友  ，            你 对  他 说   你 好  ，   他 会  觉  得 有  点   奇 怪   。 
It would sound a bit strange if you met and greeted your close friend with "你好 nǐ hǎo".

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.
