Fun English Language Learning with Faith

Introduction and Getting to know Faith.

WHAT HAVE YOU DONE TO IMPROVE YOUR KNOWLEDGE IN THE LAST YEAR? - Try to include improvement activities that relate to the job. A wide variety of activities can be mentioned as positive self-improvement. Have some good ones handy to mention.
ARE YOU A TEAM PLAYER? - You are, of course, a team player. Be sure to have examples ready. Specifics that show you often perform for the good of the team rather than for yourself are good evidence of your team attitude. Do not brag, just say it in a matter-of-fact tone. This is a key point.
WHAT IS YOUR PHILOSOPHY TOWARDS WORK? - The interviewer is not looking for a long or complicated answer here. Do you have strong feelings that the job gets done? Yes. That's the type of answer that works best here. Short and positive, showing a benefit to the organisation.

Life Lessons from Aesop's Fables

Episode 10: The Oak & the Reeds

こんにちは！
Japanese daily life podcast のAtsushiです。
このPodcastは、日本語を勉強しているみなさんに向けたPodcastです。

今日もN3の漢字をやります！

化、をやります！

音読み　か、げ
訓読み　ばーける、ばーかす

意味は、形や性質などがかわる、ばける、影響がある、とかそんな感じですね。

例えば、

・正当化ーせいとうか　
　自分が間違ったことをみとめたくない、理由をつけること

・強化ーきょうか
　的をしぼって強くすること

・感化ーかんか
　人や何かに影響を受けること

・文化ーぶんか
　人間が人と関わる中でその土地で生まれてきた生活様式，価値観など

・化粧ーけしょう
　口べになどを使って顔を美しく見せること
　

こんな感じですね。
これを使って例文を作っていきましょう！

・彼はいつも遅刻を正当化する

・新しい商品のプロモーションを強化する

・YouTuberに感化されて、動画を撮りはじめました。

・日本では、電車を待つ時、きれいに列に並ぶという文化があります。また、伝統文化として、茶道、華道、書道などがあります。

・彼女はほぼ毎日化粧しますが、休みの日はすっぴんです。




こんな感じです。


今回も最後まで聞いていただき、ありがとうございます！
