Script

おはようございます！
日本語だんたんポットキャストのゆかりです。

私はいまトルコにいます。

トルコにはのら犬(いぬ)や、
のら猫(ねこ)がおおいです。

'のら'は外にいるいぬやねこです。

ペットじゃない、いぬやねこのことです。

私の泊(と)まっているホテルにも、
ベランダにねこがいます。

トルコの人たちは、いぬやねこを
大切(たいせつ)にしていると、思います。

みんなが、やさしいです。

日本では、のら犬はほとんどいません。

でも、のら猫はたくさんいます。

トルコほどじゃないですが・・

そして、ねこにそれほどやさしくありません。
なきごえや、フンのもんだいがあるからです。

あなたの国には、のら犬や、のら猫はいますか？

大切にされてますか？

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。

Hobbies! Another Great Small Talk Topic! And Differences of 平时 and 一般

In this podcast I go deeper into the psychology of asking questions and how it will position you in front of your boss.

Simple questions such as:

1. Can you explain some of the day-to-day responsibilities this job entails?
2. How would you describe the characteristics of someone who would succeed in this role?
3. If I were in this position, how would my performance be measured? How often?

Jump into and learn whats not obvious and hardly seen by people.

Why Sleep Matters for Language Learning
1.	Memory Consolidation
During sleep, especially in the REM stage, your brain organizes and strengthens memories. Studies show that newly learned vocabulary and grammar rules are more likely to stick if you get adequate sleep after studying. Skipping sleep disrupts this process, making it harder to recall what you’ve learned.
2.	Problem-Solving and Creativity
Sleep boosts your ability to solve complex problems and think creatively. If you’ve ever woken up with a solution to a problem, you’ve experienced the power of sleep in action. This applies to cracking tricky grammar rules or composing sentences in your target language.
3.	Cognitive Resilience
Lack of sleep impairs focus and mental flexibility. Research shows that even one night of poor sleep can reduce your ability to absorb new information by up to 40%. For consistent language progress, consistent sleep is non-negotiable.

Tip 58 - Why quality snooze time is important for learning a language

Today's phrase is "to be rigged" which means something has been set up to operate in some kind of unfair way. 

Today's phrase is to be rigged. Now when something is rigged, it is believed that it's operated using some kind of dishonest behaviour to promote a desired outcome. Now, let me just give you some examples to show you what I mean:

So, if we say, for example, 

The job vacancy has been advertised in the newspaper but I believe it's been rigged. We all know who's going to win.

 The football match was definitely rigged. I don't think the football players were playing in their usual way today. 

The competition to win a holiday in the local newspaper has been won by an employee of that newspaper. That was definitely rigged.
