Layenda que inicio en la Ciudad de México, se dice que es el espíritu de una enfermera que ayuda a los pacientes en el hospital antes de desaparecer misteriosamente.

Día de Muertos

La planchada

花花去商店买花，华华给花花拿来画。
花花怪华华把画当花不像话，
华华说花花把“花”说成了“画”，
把“花”说成“画”的花花决心今后学好普通话。

年假快要結束了，這集還是跟大家說說跟過年有關的傳統，也順便談一下關於煙火的問題。

The New Year's holidays are coming to an end. In this episode I still decide to talk with you about the traditions related to Lunar New Year, and also about fireworks issues by the way.

Talking about neighborhood  

This week’s episode is a little slower, a little softer — because I’ve been recovering from COVID. But even in moments of weakness, we can still learn. In this reflective lesson, I share a quiet story from my week in recovery and teach useful, real-life English you can use when you're sick, tired, or just in need of rest.

You’ll learn:

     - How to talk naturally about being sick in English

     - Gentle ways to cancel or reschedule plans

     - Useful expressions like “I’m on the mend” and “I’ve been resting up”

     - A mindfulness prompt to help you practice English through real-life reflection

Whether you’re under the weather or just craving a pause, this immersive episode invites you to slow down and reconnect — with English, and with yourself.

Breathe In, Breathe Out: Recovering and Reconnecting

I invite you to check out 3 more Russian tongue twisters! 
Give it a shot and try repeating after me. I'll read each one twice: first slowly, and then closer to normal speed.

мАма мЫла мИлу мЫлом, мИла мЫло не любИла. (м,л) 

Ехал грЕка чЕрез рЕку, вИдит грЕка – в рекЕ рак. сУнул грЕка рУку в рЕку, рак за рУку грЕку – цап! (р,к)

былА у фролА, фролУ на лАвра навралА, пойдУ к лаврУ, на фролА лаврУ наврУ. (ф,л,в)

These tongue twisters focus on various Russian sounds. Try to articulate them as clearly as possible. Let's focus on accuracy rather than speed. Good luck!
