The English Effect

Single Player Gaming Boosts Grades and Focus

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
