ALL ABOUT TURKıSH

TÜRK MUTFAĞI

Hola a todos/as! En este nuevo podcast quiero proponerles una práctica específica que tiene que ver con mi acento en español, cuyo nombre es RIOPLATENSE (por la presencia del RIO DE LA PLATA) en la región donde se habla.

Mi acento, como todos, tiene sus propias características específicas (podes encontrar más información sobre ellas en distintos podcast!) - Hoy quiero proponerte que practiques conmigo COMPRENDERME cuando leo algunas oraciones en voz alta. Las voy a leer en distintas velocidades. Todas contienen palabras de vocabulario específico que se usa en Buenos Aires, y también las características del acento: EL VOSEO, LA 'S' ASPIRADA Y LOS SONIDOS DE LAS CONSONANTES 'LL' Y 'Y' CUANDO ESTÁN SEGUIDAS DE VOCALES.

¿Estás listo/a para testear tu listening?

DALE PLAY!

TRANSCRIPTION (includes explanation)
These expressions of importance cover a spectrum of formality and tone. In everyday conversation, one might refer to something as "important," "significant," or even employ a casual "crucial" to stress its significance. When something is truly crucial, phrases like "This is absolutely crucial" and "This cannot be overstated" underscore its critical nature. In informal settings, a more relaxed approach may be taken with expressions like "This is a big deal" or "This is a game-changer," indicating a noteworthy event. For matters necessitating decorum, a formal approach may involve phrases like "This holds great significance" or "This bears immense importance," emphasizing the gravity of the situation. Politeness tempers the description in expressions such as "This is very important" or "This holds a lot of weight," demonstrating a respectful acknowledgment of its significance. A touch of wit adds a layer of playfulness to the importance, as seen in expressions like "This is kind of a big deal" or "This is a real game-changer." In more refined circles, the upper class might communicate the weight of a situation with statements like "This is of considerable importance" or "This holds a certain gravitas," maintaining an air of sophistication. For royalty, the gravity of a matter is conveyed with grace and dignity, as in "This holds great import" or "This is of profound significance," underscoring the formal nature of the description. Ultimately, the choice of expression hinges on the context and the level of decorum required for the situation at hand.

Buongiorno e buon lunedì!


Il sole splende già caldo,
La mia giornata inizia presto;

EccoLE qui:

Allora:
Mi raccomando : non fare tardi, eh!
Faccio fatica a capire le persone in questo periodo….
La cucina romana non mi piace per niente!!!
A chi lo dici!!!!
Muoio dalla voglia di partire!
Più che altro Roma è una città difficile e io sono invecchiata!

Vi auguro una buona settimana .
