Having a Meal in China ~ 在中国吃饭

There are many expressions about apples. You might have heard that "an apple a day keeps the doctor away," or if you care about someone a lot, you might call them "the apple of my eye." Here are a few more apple expressions!

If you're surprised that something has happened, or have just beaten someone at something and want to gloat, you can say, "How do you like them apples?" This expression, which uses incorrect grammar, was made popular by the 1997 film Good Will Hunting, but it's been used for over 100 years.

So if the best tennis player in your school has been laughing at your tennis skills, but you beat them in a match, you might say, "How do you like them apples?"

If you want a second chance at something, you could ask for a "second bite of the apple," or a "second bite of the cherry."

So if the top tennis player wants another chance to beat you, you can say, "Okay, I'll give you a second bite of the apple. Let's play again tomorrow."

When someone or something destroys a plan, or makes something difficult, you can say they have "upset the apple cart." This expression has been around since the 18th century, and probably comes from an older Roman expression, "upset the cart," which had the same meaning.

So if it rains the next day, you might say, "Oh no! We were going to play tennis today, but this rain has upset the apple cart!"

Today’s episode is about first impressions, it’s not a how-to episode but more a discussion of how first opinions are made.
In psychology, a first impression is an event when one person first encounters another person and forms a mental image of that person. As much as it's natural to want others to like and accept us from the start it's important to remember that first impressions are not always correct.

First Impressions

Dear listeners,

In today's episode, you will hear about the methods and strategies that I recommend having while learning a foreign language. Learning Lithuanian is not easy, yet many people have managed to master it. If they have done it, you can do it too! All that you need is patience, time and the right mindset.

I hope that my ideas will encourage you to approach language learning with an open mind and to take control of the learning process more into your own hands. A good teacher can be a wonderful guide, yet we learn the most when we can continue learning outside of the classroom.

I suggest turning on the subtitles for a more comfortable listening experience. Install Language Reactor to translate the Lithuanian titles into your native language.

Also, if you wish to receive the full transcript of this episode, please head to my Contribee. There you will find all the podcast's transcripts, longer format Lithuanian with Paulius recordings and more.
