Poema de Federico García-Lorca del Romancero Gitano

POEMAS DE FEDERICO GARCÍA-LORCA

ROMANCE DE LA PENA NEGRA

说到这里，他就长时间地陷入沉思之中。
And he sank into a reverie, which lasted a long time.
然后，从口袋里掏出了我画的小羊，看着他的宝贝入了神。
Then, taking my sheep out of his pocket, he buried himself in the contemplation of his treasure.
你们可以想见这种关于“别的星球”的若明若暗的话语使我心里多么好奇。
You can imagine how my curiosity was aroused by this half-confidence about the "other planets."
因此我竭力地想知道其中更多的奥秘。
I made a great effort, therefore, to find out more on this subject.
你是从哪里来的，我的小家伙？
My little man, where do you come from?
你的家在什么地方？
What is this ‘where I live, of which you speak?
你要把我的小羊带到哪里去？
Where do you want to take your sheep?
他沉思了一会，然后回答我说：
After a re?ective silence he answered:
好在有你给我的那只箱子，夜晚可以给小羊当房子用。
The thing that is so good about the box you have given me is that at night he can use it as his house.
那当然。
That is so.
如果你听话的话，我再给你画一根绳子，

And if you are good I will give you a string, too,
白天可以栓住它。再加上一根杆子。我的建议看来有点使小王子反感。
so that you can tie him during the day, and a post to tie him to.
但是小王子对我喊到：“栓住它，多么奇怪的主意。”
But the little prince seemed shocked by this offer: "Tie him! What a queer idea!"
“如果你不栓住它，它就到处跑，那么它会跑丢的，”我说。
"But if you don’t tie him," I said, "he will wander off somewhere, and get lost."
我的这位朋友又笑出了声：“你想要它跑到哪里去呀？”
My friend broke into another peal of laughter: "But where do you think he would go?"
不管什么地方。它一直往前跑。
Anywhere. Straight ahead of him.
这时，小王子郑重其事地说：“这没有什么关系，我那里很小很小。
Then the little prince said, earnestly: "That doesn’t matter. Where I live, everything is so small!"
接着，他略带伤感地又补充了一句：“一直朝前走，也不会走出多远”
And, with perhaps a hint of sadness, he added: "Straight ahead of him, nobody can go very far..."

The little black fish (5) / ماهی سیاه کوچولو (5)

В этот раз мы с Лео ( https://www.italki.com/en/teacher/1018354 ) беседуем о русском чаепитии. 
– Привет, Лео! Сегодня я бы хотела поговорить с тобой о русском чаепитии. Кстати, не отвлекаю тебя? Что ты сейчас делаешь? 
– Я как раз чай пью. Мы можем почаёвничать вместе, если вы себе тоже нальёте чай.  
– С удовольствием! Подожди. Сейчас налью. Меня подтолкнул к теме чаепития стрим одного русского Ютубера, который в долгом разговоре с собеседником пил чай. Я поняла, что я тоже так делаю.
– И я! Ведь чай подразумевает всегда неформальную дружескую беседу. Неважно, по скайпу или реально. Когда ко мне приходят гости, мы сразу же идём на кухню. У меня есть гостиная, но мне там неуютно…  
… Давайте объясним слушателям – чаёвничать – ведь это не просто пить чай. Скорее, это проводить неспешно время за чаем, часто за доброй беседой.  Кстати, какая у вас любимая комната в квартире? 
– Кухня. Кухня – это место притяжения и семьи, и друзей. Потому что именно на кухне мы можем чаёвничая разговаривать, сидя напротив друг друга. Вообще, кухонный стол и чай располагают к душевной беседе.
– Согласен с вами. Когда мы чаёвничаем, мы чаще всего выпиваем не одну и не две чашки чая на человека. И ведь мы редко пьём «пустой» чай. Пустой чай – то есть чай без сладостей,без конфет, печенья, – вызывает непонимание.  
– Знаешь, в советские времена нередко делали запасы продуктов. Помню, я приходила к подружке в гости, и она всегда наливала чай. На столе у неё всегда были запасы конфет или печенья. Я говорю о 80-ых годах. Это были года тотального дефицита, но запас конфет, печенья и чая был у всех. Сейчас неголодные времена, и редко кто делает запасы продуктов, но если гость пришёл неожиданно, то может оказаться, что хозяева к чаю-то ничего не могут предложить.  Поэтому негласным правилом стало приходить в гости не с пустыми руками. Иначе говоря, приносить что-то с собой - конфеты, шоколад. 
– Да, я никогда не хожу в гости с пустыми руками. 
...
Продолжение – на уроках со мной или с Лео.

¿Alguna vez se te ha roto un hueso?
Aquí vas a escucharnos hablar de algunas anécdotas con esta pregunta tan común entre los hispanohablantes.

Mucho que decir

🎧¿Alguna vez...?

Building Rapport

Ask Open-Ended Questions:  Ditch the "yes or no" questions.  Instead, ask questions that prompt elaboration and showcase your genuine interest in the other person's work and experiences. Examples include: "What are you currently working on that excites you the most?" or "What challenges are you facing in your industry?"

Actively Listen and Respond:  Pay close attention to their answers.  Nod, use verbal affirmations like "interesting" or "I see," and ask follow-up questions that demonstrate you're truly engaged.

Find Common Ground:  Look for shared interests, experiences, or industry knowledge. This creates a sense of connection and makes conversation flow more naturally. Mention a mutual colleague, a recent industry trend, or a shared alma mater (if appropriate).

Be a Giver, Not Just a Taker:  Networking is a two-way street. Offer your own insights, share relevant resources, or connect them with someone in your network who might be of value.

Remember Names and Details:  People appreciate being remembered.  Make a conscious effort to memorize names and revisit key points mentioned during the conversation.

Embrace Storytelling:  Weave relatable anecdotes or personal experiences into your conversation to illustrate your points and create a more memorable interaction.

Be Authentic and Positive:   People connect with genuine personalities.   Be yourself, showcase your enthusiasm, and maintain a positive outlook

Follow Up:  Don't let the connection fade. Send a personalized email within 24 hours thanking them for the conversation and mentioning a specific detail you discussed.

Nurture the Relationship:  Stay connected on LinkedIn, send them relevant articles, or offer congratulations on their achievements. This demonstrates your continued interest and builds a stronger bond.
