Episode 9: Making Friends now versus in Primary school

Ngày xửa ngày xưa, có một người giặt đồ thuê nuôi một con lừa để giúp anh ta vận chuyển quần áo từ nhà ra bờ sông và ngược lại. Thế nhưng, con lừa này không thích những món ăn mà ông chủ cho nó. Vì vậy, nó quyết định đi đến cánh đồng gần đó để ăn món cỏ mà nó yêu thích.

Một ngày nọ, khi đang đi, chú lừa gặp một con cáo và kết bạn với nó . Chúng tìm thấy một cánh đồng trồng toàn dưa hấu và cùng nhau ăn. Dưa hấu quá ngon nên lừa ăn rất nhiều và cao hứng nói với con cáo rằng: “Tôi muốn hát”.

Con cáo đáp: “Nếu cậu hát, con người sẽ biết mình đang phá hoại mùa màng của họ và sẽ chạy đến đánh chúng ta chết mất”. Con lừa không nghe lời khuyên của cáo mà vẫn hát. Thấy vậy, con cáo đã nhanh chóng nhảy qua hàng rào và biến mất trước khi dân làng đến đánh lừa.

Con lừa hát

今日は、レストランの会話についてご紹介します。						
みなさんは、レストランで注文が終わったときに、店員さんが						
「ご注文の品は以上でよろしいでしょうか」
（ごちゅうもの　しなは　いじょうで　よろしい　でしょうか）			
と言うのを聞いたことがありますか。	

レストランでは、まず、お客さまが食べたいものや飲みたいものを注文した後に、						
店員さんは注文を繰り返します。						
そして最後に、注文に間違いないかを確認します。						
その時に「ご注文の品は以上でよろしいでしょうか」と聞かれます。						
						
今のところ注文は他にないけれど後でまた注文するかもしれないというときには、 						
注文の最後に「とりあえず以上でお願いします」と日本人はよく言います。												
												
マクドナルドなどのお店では、注文のときに、						
「こちらでお召し上がりですか、お持ち帰りですか」と店員さんに聞かれます。						
答えるときは、お店で食べる場合は「ここで食べます」
持ち帰る場合は、	「お持ち帰りでお願いします」と言えば、大丈夫です。						
										
また、海外では、レストランで食べ残したものを持ち帰る習慣がありますが、日本ではあまりしません。						
もし、持ち帰りたい場合は、「お持ち帰りできますか」と聞いてみましょう。						
						
ご注文の品は以上でよろしいでしょうか　Is that everything？Does that complete your order？
とりあえず、以上でお願いします。　　　That's all for now.
こちらでお召し上がりですか、お持ち帰りですか　　　　Is this for here, or to go?
お持ち帰りできますか　　　　　　　　　Do you do take-out?

En este episodio te doy una breve explicación de como puedes utilizar esta expresión muy utilizada por los hispano hablantes.

¿Conoces la expresión "Con base en"

We know a lot of jobs can be done remotely, an arrangement we often call "working from home."

But we also know that working remotely may not mean actually working at home — people work in libraries, in their cars and in cafes.

Many of us like working in the nice atmosphere of a coffee shop. But some cafe and bar owners have had enough of remote workers using their tables.

Some have banned laptops and turned off their Wi-Fi, while others have begun asking remote workers to pay to use the space.

Owners have complained that some people buy one coffee and work in their cafe for up to eight hours, or ask for the music to be turned down so they can have meetings online.

Peter Duran runs a coffee shop in Berlin. He doesn't have Wi-Fi and doesn't let people use laptops. He told Barista Magazine: "We want to be a place where people come to meet each other or be alone, but leave the stress of work outside."

And it's not just about the atmosphere of the place. Remote workers aren't good for business, says Duran, since they spend much less per hour than he pays his workers.

Of course, remote workers themselves don't agree.

On TikTok, one worker said if you pay $8 for a coffee you should be able to choose how you spend your time in a cafe.

However, with so many people working remotely, towns and cities around the world have begun opening remote working spaces where people can work without annoying any cafe owners.
