HSK一， Commonly used phrases, Please read after me.

Hello, everyone! This is Kate.

Welcome to my podcast. Today we are going to study one very interesting and important grammar, which is gonna help you to sound like a native speaker.

Ready?-Let’s go!


Okay, imagine that you need to go to the hairdressers. Your hair is long and obviously it’s time to do something with it. How would you tell this to your companion?  

“I’m gonna cut my hair?”, but you are not doing it yourself, so, there is a better option.

If you are getting some services, there is a construction which simplifies everything.

To have something done.

Listen to my examples:

I have my hair cut every month.
I’m having my hair cut right now.
I’ve decided. I will have my hair cut!

The verb have is used like any other verb and it follows all the rules.

Present simple: I have my windows cleaned every week. Someone cleans them for me.
Present Perfect: I have just had my dinner cooked. Someone cooked it for me.
Past Continuous: I was having my homework checked yesterday.


You see, it’s super easy and handy!


Practise yourself, here are some sentences in the description below:

I didn't cook my dinner myself. Someone prepared it for me.
I usually don't clean the windows by myself.
I have never cut my hair myself
I will not fix my car. My dad will do it for me.
I won’t check my blood pressure myself.

Have something done: WHAT IS IT?

在高速行驶的火车上，有一位老人不小心把刚买的新鞋从窗口掉下去一只，周围的人都觉得很可惜。没想到老人把另一只鞋也从窗口扔了出去。他的行为让周围的人感到很吃惊。

这时候，老人笑着解释说：“剩下的那只鞋无论多么好，多么贵，多么适合我穿，可对我来说已经没有一点儿用处了。我把它扔了出去，就有人可能捡到一双鞋子，说不定他还可以穿呢?

这些词语您明白吗？

高速行驶gāosù xíngshǐ  high speed driving
周围 zhōu wéi  around
可惜 kě xi  unfortunately; It's a pity...; It's too bad...
行为 xíng wéi  behavior
吃惊 chī jīng be amazed
解释 jiě shì  explain
无论 wú lùn  whether
捡   jiǎn    pick up
说不定 shuō bu dìng   maybe,perhaps 


On the high-speed train, an old man accidentally dropped one of his newly bought shoes from the window, which made everyone around feel very sorry. 
Unexpectedly, the old man threw another shoe out of the window. His behavior surprised the people around him. 
At this time, the old man explained with a smile, "the remaining shoe, no matter how good, how expensive, and how suitable for me, is of no use to me. If I throw it out, someone may pick up a pair of shoes, maybe he can still wear it!"

IELTS Speaking Practice

3 idioms for your IELTS speaking exam.

Halo semua! Selamat pagi, siang, sore dan malam! Bagaimana akhir minggu kalian? 

Hari Sabtu, Saya punya rencana bertemu sama teman saya. Tapi tiba-tiba dia bilang mungkin dia masuk angin. Di Bahasa Inggris, “masuk angin” adalah “catch a cold”, dan di Bahasa Jepang adalah 風邪を引く. Jadi, Saya pergi sendiri ke toko buku dan cuci mata.
Saya tahu teman saya ini adalah orang yang angin-anginan. “Orang yang angin-anginan” adalah orang yang tidak konsisten dengan perasaannya. Di Bahasa Inggris artinya “moody person”, di Bahasa Jepang artinya “気分屋”. Contohnya, Hari ini teman kamu bilang “ok”, besok dia bilang “tidak ok”. Hari ini dia bilang “suka”, besok dia bilang “tidak suka”. Kalian punya teman yang angin-anginan? Ok, sampai di sini ya. Hari ini kita belajar ekspresi dengan kata “angin”. Menarik kan! Selamat beraktivitas ya! 


Akhir minggu

Angin-anginan

Did you know that complex speech likely existed over 150,000 years ago?  Imagine our early ancestors crafting words to share ideas and build societies!  Learning a language allows you to connect with that rich history of human communication.
