〈#87〉7月6日水曜日　コロナワクチン4回目の接種

不加动词和没加动词有什么不一样？不可以加动词，可以加是，还可以加形容词（adjective）,但是，没只有加动词和形容词两个，不可以加是，不能说没是。
我们今天只看不加动词和没加动词。不加动词是说现在和将来now and future，没加动词是说以前、过去，是past.
我们看两个句子：
1. 今年我没去旅游。
2.今年我不去旅游。
现在是十二月，今年已经过去了，我可能说“今年我没去旅游。”
现在是一月，今年才刚刚开始，我可能说“我没有钱，今年我不去旅游。”
再看两个句子：
3.我太太今天没来学校。
4.我太太今天不来学校。
你的同事看见你，问你，你太太在办公室吗？我要给她一个东西。这时候你说“我太太今天没来学校。”她没来，所以她不在学校，也不在办公室。
你的同事看见你，问你，你太太几点来学校？你说“我太太今天不来学校。”你太太今天没有课，她不来，她现在不来，十二点不来，下午也不来。
好，现在你是不是明白不加动词和没加动词有什么不一样了，我们来做一些练习试试吧。

Story Chinese

What's the difference between "不” and “没”？

Host: Welcome back to the podcast everyone. I’m joined today by Naseem, an IT consultant from 
Delhi and Deepa, an HR consultant from Bangore. Today we’ll be discussing the increase in the number of people moonlighting and what the future holds for companies and workers. So, Deepa, I’ll ask you first: What has created this problem?

Deepa: Well, as with many places around the world, during the pandemic, there was a big increase in the number of people working from home and also economic instability. So, at the same time, we had more people working without any supervision and people were more worried about being able to make a living. So, the increase in online moonlighting was a consequence of that situation really.

Naseem: That’s certainly what happened to me. At the time, you read about all of these companies that were *laying off * their staff and there wasn’t much you could do about it if it happened to you. So suddenly working for just one company seemed like a bad idea. I have a family to feed: three boys and a girl. I felt a lot of insecurity and was terrified of losing money, or maybe even worse, my house. So, I took two jobs.

Host: What effect did that have on you and your family?

Naseem: It gave us some comfort, financially, as I started making more money than I had before the pandemic. But I was also working very long hours each day. I saw the children every day of course, but I couldn’t spend any real time with them as I had to work from almost as soon as I got up, until late in the evening. My wife was working as well, so it was quite hard to manage everything. When the crisis was averted, we had gotten used to having the extra money, so although I cut back on my hours in both jobs, I still continued to work at both.

Host: Do you see anything wrong with doing what you are doing?

Naseem: Not at all. I’m a professional and I work hard at both jobs. My main job is in IT as you mentioned, but my second is in design. 




English Conversation/Dialogue

MOONLIGHTING 

Office English / Useful Phrases To Communicate At Work.

Workplace communication is the process of exchanging information and ideas within a team or an organization as a whole.

There are various of types of communication from formal to informal.

The purpose is to ensure all are aware of variety of group's / organizations goals and can move together in unison.

Here some easy but are used phases by native speakers in any offiece every day:

Can you help me with…?
This phrase is one of the most important and valuable in any workplace. Sometimes you may need to ask your colleagues for help. And it is the most polite way to do so. For example:

Can you help me with this report? I can’t seem to find the correct data.

Do you have a minute?
This phrase is also widespread in the workplace. You can use it when you need to talk to your colleague but don’t want to bother them too much. For example:

Do you have a minute? I need to ask you about the project we are working on.

I’ll be right there.
This phrase is usually used to let your colleagues know you are coming and will be there in a minute. For example:

I’ll be right there. I just need to finish this report.

What do you think?
This phrase will come in handy if you need to ask for opinions or suggestions. For example:

What do you think about this design? Should we change something?

Here are just a few to get you to be clear that a simple English is the key - there is no need to make it too complicated when you speak to others, the main thing is that the communication is polite, respectful and in a manner where everyone understand's you.

I hope it's useful and when you need to 'up your game' in English - book my classes now.

To Your Success,
