How to dream in Italian?

Welcome back, and you’re watching the Olympic Winter Games Review… and they are getting ready now… about to start the race… This will be a very exciting skiing event. Everyone is talking about it. Almost ready now… 

“Aaron… Aaron… Can you hear me? Or are you too busy watching TV?” says an angry voice. 

Aaron is a handsome black cat. Right now, he’s lying on the couch watching TV. His hands are on his belly and his head is on a pillow. 

His mother is standing over him. She looks upset and angry. She is wearing wet rubber gloves. 

“When will you stop?” says Aaron’s mother while looking for the TV remote. “You have been watching this show all day!”

She finds it under a pillow. She turns off the TV.

“Hey!” cries Aaron. “I was watching that! They were just about to start!” 

“I should tell your father. He won’t approve of this.”

Aaron sits up and grabs the remote from his mother’s hands. “Go tell him! I don’t think he will hear you. He’s in his bedroom watching TV too!” 

Aaron turns the TV back on and lies back down. 

Aaron’s mother breathes deeply and gives up. She goes back into the kitchen and continues washing the dishes.

In this episode, I reflect on Episode 1 of Season 1 of the anime *Demon Slayer: Kimetsu no Yaiba*, titled **"Cruelty."**

The tragedy that struck Tanjiro, the bond with his sister Nezuko, and the sudden appearance of Giyu — it was filled with powerful, emotional moments where feelings clashed.

How did you feel in that moment when your heart wavered?

Let’s take a moment to savor the lingering echoes of this powerful story together.

Original story by Koyoharu Gotouge, directed by Haruo Sotozaki, animation by ufotable.

The first season of the TV anime aired in 2019, with a total of 26 episodes.

Demon Slayer S1E1 for Intermediate

首先，我们要学几个常用的词。左拐，右拐，调头，直走，过路口，停车。
First, let’s learn several words you will use.

Turn left – 左拐（zuǒ guǎi）,
Turn right – 右拐(yòu guǎi )，
U turn – 调头  (diào tóu)，
Go straight – 直走（zhí zǒu）, 
Cross the road – 过马路（guò mǎ lù）,
Stop the car - 停车（tíng chē）。

那么现在，标题的句子对你来说就已经不是很难了。“左拐，前面停车（zuǒ guǎi，qián miantíng chē）”“左拐”的意思是“Turn left”，“左”- Left，“拐”-to turn. “前面”的意思是“front”.”停车”的“停”-stop，车 – car. 所以合在一起，就是“左拐，前面停车（zuǒ guǎi，qián miantíng chē）”
And now, I think the sentence in the title is not too difficult for you. “左拐，前面停车（zuǒ guǎi，qián mian tíng chē）”- Turn left, then stop in the front.“左拐” means “Turn left”， “左” is Left， “拐” means to turn. “前面” means“front”.”停车”’s“停” is stop，车 means car. So put them together and it should be“左拐，前面停车（zuǒ guǎi，qián miantíng chē）”
