南京的梧桐树真正的名字叫“悬铃木”。So its real name is " plane ".
悬铃木的果实有一个球的、叫“一球悬铃木”，三个球的叫“三球悬铃木”。The fruit of sycamore with one ball is called "Sycamore with one ball", and the fruit with three balls is called "Sycamore with three balls".
这二者的杂交，产生了“二球悬铃木，简称”悬铃木“。The hybrid of these two, produced "two ball sycamore, short for" Sycamore."
那为什么叫“法国梧桐“呢？因为它的确与法国有些渊源。Why is it called " plane "? Because it does have something to do with France.
1872年，一位法国传教士在南京的石鼓路栽下了第一棵梧桐树。In 1872, a French missionary planted the first plane tree on Shigu Road in Nanjing.

南京的梧桐树

Today I am talking about fumbling and bumbling when speaking. It doesn't mean that you're not fluent, but more that you're not eloquent. Eloquence is a gift or maybe something taught over time, but nothing that you need to stress over...unless you're a public speaker.

はい、こんにちは。今回はポッドキャストの18回目です。大学のレポート課題を全て終わらせてしまったので、最近少し暇になりました。italkiの紹介動画をそろそろアップデートしたいです。今の動画を撮影したのは２年前です。レッスンに来る生徒さんの目的やゴールも少し変わっているので、レッスンの種類もアップデートしたいです。

Hello, this is episode 18 of season 2 of my podcast. I've finished all my university report assignments, so I've had a bit of free time recently, and I'd like to update my italki introduction video soon. I filmed the current video two years ago. The objectives and goals of new students have changed a bit, so I want to update the type of lessons I offer.

今日は効果的なテスト勉強についてお話しします。日本語の代表的なテストはJLPTですね。私の生徒さんの中にもJLPTを受験した人がたくさんいますが、レベルにかかわらず全員合格しています。テストを受ける時に一番大事なことは、正しいレベルを選択することです。その次に、テスト勉強の計画です。テストに申し込んだら、テストの日をカレンダーに書いて、テストまでにどれぐらい勉強時間があるか考えます。１年前から勉強を始める人もいれば、３ヶ月前に準備を始める人もいます。

Today I will talk about effective test study. The JLPT is the most well-known and widely-recognised test for the Japanese language. Many of my students have taken the JLPT, and they have all passed, regardless of their level. The most important thing when taking the test is to choose the right level. The second most important thing is to plan your test study. When you sign up for the test, you should write the test date on your calendar and think about how much time you have to study before the test; some people start studying a year in advance, while others start preparing three months in advance.

大切なのは早く始めることではなく、自分に合ったスケジュールを立てることです。たとえば平日が忙しい人は、仕事や学校の休み時間に勉強するより、週末にじっくり勉強した方が集中できるはずです。普段あまり忙しくない人は、毎日決まった時間に勉強することで正しい生活のリズムを作ることができます。「テスト勉強はテストに合格できなければ意味がない」というのは誤解です。誤解とは、人や物について間違った理解をして、正しくないイメージをもつことです。テスト勉強は、自分に合った勉強スタイルを探して試すのにとても役立ちます。さらに、テストに合格できると自信がつきます。
