はい、こんにちは。今回はポッドキャストの18回目です。大学のレポート課題を全て終わらせてしまったので、最近少し暇になりました。italkiの紹介動画をそろそろアップデートしたいです。今の動画を撮影したのは２年前です。レッスンに来る生徒さんの目的やゴールも少し変わっているので、レッスンの種類もアップデートしたいです。

Hello, this is episode 18 of season 2 of my podcast. I've finished all my university report assignments, so I've had a bit of free time recently, and I'd like to update my italki introduction video soon. I filmed the current video two years ago. The objectives and goals of new students have changed a bit, so I want to update the type of lessons I offer.

今日は効果的なテスト勉強についてお話しします。日本語の代表的なテストはJLPTですね。私の生徒さんの中にもJLPTを受験した人がたくさんいますが、レベルにかかわらず全員合格しています。テストを受ける時に一番大事なことは、正しいレベルを選択することです。その次に、テスト勉強の計画です。テストに申し込んだら、テストの日をカレンダーに書いて、テストまでにどれぐらい勉強時間があるか考えます。１年前から勉強を始める人もいれば、３ヶ月前に準備を始める人もいます。

Today I will talk about effective test study. The JLPT is the most well-known and widely-recognised test for the Japanese language. Many of my students have taken the JLPT, and they have all passed, regardless of their level. The most important thing when taking the test is to choose the right level. The second most important thing is to plan your test study. When you sign up for the test, you should write the test date on your calendar and think about how much time you have to study before the test; some people start studying a year in advance, while others start preparing three months in advance.

大切なのは早く始めることではなく、自分に合ったスケジュールを立てることです。たとえば平日が忙しい人は、仕事や学校の休み時間に勉強するより、週末にじっくり勉強した方が集中できるはずです。普段あまり忙しくない人は、毎日決まった時間に勉強することで正しい生活のリズムを作ることができます。「テスト勉強はテストに合格できなければ意味がない」というのは誤解です。誤解とは、人や物について間違った理解をして、正しくないイメージをもつことです。テスト勉強は、自分に合った勉強スタイルを探して試すのにとても役立ちます。さらに、テストに合格できると自信がつきます。

#4 よみきかせ【しあわせ】  

Ciao e benvenuti a ITALOPOP!

Io sono Enza, insegno italiano per stranieri e oggi vi porto in un piccolo viaggio a Trieste… tra porto, mare e, soprattutto, caffè.

Sapete, Trieste non è solo il porto e le colline. Trieste è la città del caffè. Qui non si ordina “un caffè” e basta: no, no… qui ogni caffè ha il suo nome, la sua storia e… la sua personalità!
Entriamo in un bar storico, per esempio il Caffè San Marco. Il barista ci sorride: “Buongiorno, cosa prende?”
Se vuoi un nero, è semplice: un espresso nella classica tazzina.
Ma se vuoi fare il vero triestino, puoi chiedere un nero in B: sì, in bicchiere! Perché qui il bicchiere fa subito città portuale.
Hai voglia di latte? Allora arriva il capo o, se vuoi fare il raffinato, il capo in B. È un caffè macchiato servito in bicchiere, così puoi ammirare il gioco tra il caffè scuro e la schiuma bianca… quasi un piccolo dipinto!
E se proprio vuoi sentirti un esperto locale, prova il deca in B: il caffè decaffeinato, sempre in bicchiere, perché anche senza caffeina, qui il bicchiere è d’obbligo.

A Trieste il caffè è anche socialità: non è raro vedere due persone che discutono animatamente sul “nero” perfetto o sul bicchiere giusto. E attenzione alle parole: se chiedi un “caffelatte” a un triestino, sorriderà… perché qui si dice ancora “caffelatte”, non cappuccino! Piccoli dettagli che raccontano una città.

A Trieste, il caffè non è solo una bevanda: è un piccolo viaggio nella cultura, nella lingua e nelle abitudini locali. La prossima volta che entrerete in un bar triestino, ricordatevi: potete ordinare un nero, un capo o un capo in B… ma soprattutto, godetevi il momento.

𝐆𝐋𝐎𝐒𝐒𝐀𝐑𝐈𝐎

Nero → espresso in tazzina
Nero in B → espresso in bicchiere
Capo → macchiato in tazzina
Capo in B → macchiato in bicchiere di vetro
Deca → decaffeinato in tazzina
Deca in B → decaffeinato in bicchiere di vetro
Caffelatte → cappuccino (più latte che caffè)

Script

おはようございます。日本語だんだんポットキャストのゆかりです。

きのうは、「おはしも」の話(はなし)をしました。

「おはしも」とは、

・おさない
・はしらない
・しゃべらない
・もどらない
のことでしたね。

今日は、この「おはしも」をいつ習(なら)うのか話します。

私の友達(ともだち)は、学校の先生です。

彼女(かのじょ)に、いつ子供たちは「おはしも」を習うのか聞きました。

そのこたえはなんと、3さいでした。

日本の、保育園(ほいくえん)や幼稚園(ようちえん)で習います。

そして、地震(じしん)があったとき、
「おはしも」を思い出します。

私も、いつ習(なら)ったかおぼえていませんでしたが、

3歳とは、思いませんでした。

地震(じしん)が多い国なので、
ちいさいころから、練習(れんしゅう)するんですね。

では、今日も最後まで聞いてくれて、だんだん、です。

また、明日。
