[EP101] お母さんと韓国旅行🇰🇷

Сегодня я выбрала известный роман “12 стульев” двух советских писателей - Ильи Ильфа и Евгения Петрова. Без сомнения, данная книга содержится в культурном коде любого русского человека, все знают цитаты и диалоги из нее, а особенно из фильмов, которые были сняты по этому произведению.

Но выбранный отрывок интересен еще и тем, что из него вы узнаете 7 разных фраз и слов, которые означают одно - человек умер. Богатство русского языка на ярком примере, так сказать.

Слова, которые объясняю в эпизоде: ца́рствие небе́сное - the Kingdom of Heaven; согласи́ться - выразить, подтвердить своё согласие - to agree; преста́виться - умереть - to die, pass away; отда́ть бо́гу ду́шу (to give your soul to God) - умереть - to die, pass away; смотря́ кака́я - it depends on what; в те́ле - упитанный, толстый - well-fed, fat; покрупне́е - bigger; похуде́е - thinner, skinny; счита́ться - слыть, быть известным в качестве кого-нибудь - to consider, known as; ви́дный - (разг.) значительный, известный, рослый, статный - prominent, conspicuous, distinguished; возвы́шенный - высокий - high; е́жели - если - if; не дай бог - God forbid; помере́ть - умереть - to die, pass away; сыгра́ть в я́щик (kick the bucket) - умереть - to die, pass away; торго́вый - trade, commercial, merchant; бы́вшей купе́ческой ги́льдии - former merchant guild; приказа́ть до́лго жить - умереть - to die, pass away; чин - служебный разряд у военных и гражданских служащих - rank; дво́рник - janitor, wiper; крестья́нин - peasant; переки́нуться - умереть - to die, pass away; но́ги протяну́ть (stretch your legs) - умереть - to die, pass away; могу́чий - мощный, сильный - powerful; железнодоро́жный конду́ктор - railway conductor; нача́льство - brass, authority; дать ду́ба - умереть - to die, pass away.

Kev's English Podcast Episode 5 : How to Improve your Listening skills

Describe something you did to learn another language.
You should say: 
What language did you learn.
What you did.
How did it help you learn the language.
And explain how you felt about it.





“I’ve always had a great interest, and fascination with  anything related to Japan, especially Japanese manga comics and movies….so, about 2 years ago I decided that I’d try to learn the language, and also made a plan to visit Japan someday. 

Although I’d picked up some Japanese words, and phrases from watching movies and cartoons over the years, I still needed to start learning the language from scratch, and was at sixes and sevens on where to start.  One of my friends who actually studied Japanese in college, recommended a youtube channel to me, which is hosted by a native Japanese teacher, and I decided to give it a shot. 

 The video lessons were wonderful, and I found that I was able to start picking up the language very quickly, from the very first lesson, with the added bonus that it was all free!  The teacher was wonderful, and really helped make learning the language a lot of fun, as well as getting me off to a flying start, and after just a few weeks,  my Japanese started to improve by leaps and bounds.

The time flew by, and after just 6 months, I was actually able to have a basic conversation in Japanese which I felt extremely happy and proud of, and actually got to visit Japan about six months ago, which was absolutely amazing, especially as I was now able to communicate with the locals….all thanks to this amazing youtube channel. 


Thank you …”

Man Fired for Keeping Webcam Off Awarded $73,000
A remote worker who was fired for refusing to keep his camera on while working has been awarded about $73,000 by a Dutch court.

The man, whose name was not made public, had been working for the US software company Chetu in the Netherlands since 2019. On August 23, 2022, while working remotely, he was told by his employer that he should keep his webcam on all day for online training.

The employee said he didn't feel comfortable being monitored on camera for nine hours, and refused to do so. He added that the company could already see all activities on his laptop and that he was also sharing his screen.

But Chetu said that having a camera on was no different from being watched in an office. And the company fired him.

Finding this unfair, the man took the company to court in the Netherlands. He told the court that he hadn't been given clear enough reasons for being fired, and that asking him to keep his camera on for the whole workday was against his right to privacy.

And the court agreed. Chetu now must pay the man about $73,000.

While using a webcam to check on employees may not be very common, computer programs that monitor employee activity have become popular.

A survey from 2021 found that 60% of US companies with remote workers were using employee monitoring software, and 81% of those companies found that their workers were more productive while being monitored.
