Today we're talking about job interviews. We’re going to look at some vocabulary that you can use to improve how you perform in your next job interview. Or, if you’re writing a CV, cover letter, or a resume, these are words and phrases that you should think about including. Whether you're a student, a graduate, or someone with a lot of experience, job interviews can be scary. Especially if you're not a native English speaker. Hopefully today we can make them a little easier for you! I work with people from all over the world to improve how handle job interviews and hopefully you will find some of that in today's podcast.

みんなは田舎と都会、どっちが好き？ おれはねぇ、けっこうどっちも好きなんだけど、どっちかっていうと田舎の方が好きなんだよなぁ。 なんか小さい頃は田舎って正直つまんないなぁって思ってたんだけど、大人になってからは都会で人が多すぎるとちょっとストレスになっちゃうからあんまり都会は好きじゃなくなっちゃったわ。 まぁいま住んでるとこみたいに田舎過ぎても、そんなに好きじゃないんだけどね。 でも、どっちかっていうと田舎の方が好きだな。 今日も聞いてくれてありがとう！ バイバイ

Indeed the Idols I have loved so long, have done my credit in this World much wrong; have drowned my Glory in a shallow Cup, and sold my Reputation for a Song.

Aprender un idioma es un proceso cognitivamente complejo, sin embargo, si tuviera que elegir un solo consejo para que mejoraras tus competencias generales sería este. Acompáñame a responder esta pregunta.

Ep. 5 - ¿Cómo puedo mejorar mi nivel? ¿Cómo puedo mejorar la gramática?

El Hojarasquín del Monte es un personaje que proviene de las regiones montañosas de Colombia, especialmente de Antioquia. Se le describe como un hombre cubierto de hojas secas y ramas, que habita en los bosques y selvas espesas. Su misión es proteger la naturaleza y asustar a quienes maltratan los árboles o cazan sin necesidad.

Se dice que cuando alguien corta un árbol innecesariamente o daña la vegetación, el Hojarasquín aparece entre las ramas y la maleza, haciendo ruidos aterradores con el crujido de las hojas secas. Los campesinos que han tenido la desgracia de encontrarse con él aseguran que es mejor no desafiarlo, porque tiene el poder de hacerte perder en el bosque durante días, o incluso para siempre. Para calmar su ira, algunos le dejan ofrendas de frutas o flores en los troncos de los árboles.

Colombian Legends

El Hojarasquín del Monte

古时候，有个叫张三的人，他费了好大的劲儿，才积攒下三百两银子，心里很高兴。但他总是怕别人把这些钱偷去，就找了一只箱子，把三百两银子钉在箱中，然后埋在屋后的地底下。

可是他还是不放心，怕别人到这儿来挖，于是就想了一个“巧妙”的办法。他拿出一张纸，写上七个大字:“此地无银三百两”,贴在墙角边,这才放心地走了。
 
谁知道他的举动，都被隔壁的王二看到了。半夜，趁张三熟睡，王二把三百两银子全偷走了。为了不让张三知道，他也在一张纸上写了七个大字:“隔壁王二不曾偷”，也贴在墙上。

张三第二天早上起来,到屋后去看银子，银子不见了，一见纸条，才恍然大悟。

“此地无银三百两”比喻想要用自认为是聪明的手法隐瞒真相，结果反而暴露得更明显。

In ancient times, there was a man named Zhang San. He spent a lot of effort to save 300 taels of silver. He was very happy. But he was always afraid that others would steal the money, so he found a box, nailed the money in the box, and buried it under the ground behind the house.
However, he was still worried that others would come here to dig, so he thought of a "clever" idea. He took out a piece of paper and wrote in seven big characters: "there is no silver here, three hundred taels". He stuck it on the corner of the wall, and then he left with confidence.
Well, what he did, was seen by Wang Er next door. At midnight, while Zhang San was asleep, Wang Er stole all three hundred taels of silver. In order not to let Zhang San know, he also wrote seven big characters on a piece of paper: "Wang Er next door never stole it", which was also pasted on the wall.
Zhang San got up the next morning and went to the back of the house to see the silver. The silver was gone. When he saw the note, he suddenly realized. 

This idiom is a metaphor for trying to hide the truth with a clever trick, but the result is more obvious, a clumsy denial resulting in self-exposure.
