はい、こんにちは。今回はポッドキャストのシーズン２の20回目です。私は最近シカゴに旅行に行ったり、大阪で生徒さんに会ったりしていました。大阪は今すごく寒いです。寒いのであんかを買いました。あんかとは足を温める暖房器具です。机でもベッドでも使えるので便利です。

Hello, this is episode 20 of season 2 of my podcast. I've recently been travelling to Chicago and also meeting students in Osaka. It's very cold in Osaka right now. It's so cold that I bought Anka. Anka is a heating device that warms your feet. It is convenient because you can use it at your desk or on your bed. (It's a small electronic device that you can rest your feet on.)

もう今年も終わりですね。生徒さんの中にも、学校や仕事が終わって冬休みを過ごしている人がたくさんいます。最近、生徒さんとライフワークバランスの話をよくします。私もたまには出かけようと思って、外に出ましたが、今日は気温が2度しかなくてとても寒かったです。梅田の近くのクリスマスマーケットを見に行こうと思いましたが、思わず諦めてしまいました。「思わず」とは、するつもりがなかったのに、してしまうことです。代わりに近所でコーヒーを買って、スーパーで買い物をして帰りました。

It's the end of another year. Many of my students are enjoying their winter holidays after school and work. Recently, I have been talking a lot with my students about work-life balance. Therefore I decided to go out once in a while, but it was very cold today with a temperature of only 2 degrees Celsius (35.6F). I thought about going to see the Christmas market near Umeda, but I omowazu gave up. Omowazu (unintentionally) means that you didn't intend to, but you did. Instead, I bought a coffee in my neighbourhood, did some shopping at a supermarket and went home.

スーパーには正月の食材がたくさん並んでいます。カニや、数の子や、干し柿があります。正月はクリスマスの後ですが、日本では正月の方が長い祝日なので、クリスマスの時期から正月の準備を始める家が多いです。クリスマスの食べ物は24日だけ売ってます。12月のスーパーは忙しそうです。正月やクリスマスのための特別な商品を売りますし、正月の間は閉まるので、今はとても混雑しています。私はいつも水を買いますが、運ぶのが重いので少しずつ買わなければなりません。

S2 Ep20. 外が寒すぎる


The number of tigers in India more than doubled between 2010 and 2022, according to a new study.

In 2010, there were around 1,700 tigers in the country — but there were almost 3,700 by 2022, the study said.

The study also said that tiger numbers had increased because the animals were better protected from poachers and because their habitats were better protected too.

The researchers added that the amount of contact between humans and animals has been reduced, and the country has made sure that the tigers have enough prey.

The researchers said the results show that, with the right attitude, people can make a difference.

Some people now want the country to spend more time and money on protecting other animals too.

Of all the tigers in the world, 75% are now in India, in an area of about 138,000 square kilometers.

But many of these animals live close to large numbers of people.

The researchers said some communities have benefited from the increased tiger population because it has meant tourists have visited the area to see the animals.

However, tiger attacks on humans do happen, and with India's human population growing, this problem won't go away.

But the researchers said the number of tiger attacks per year is quite small, and many more people are killed by leopards, wild pigs and snakes, and in car accidents.

However, while many have said that the increase in tigers is good news, others are not sure about the accuracy of the data, which was collected by government-supported agencies.

गर्मी सुरु भएको धेरै भएको थिएन । एउटा तलाउ सुक्यो । तलाउको पानीमा बाँचेका पशुपक्षी बिचल्लीमा परे । उनीहरू एक एक गरेर नयाँ तलाउको खोजीमा लागे ।

तर तलाउको कछुवालाई समस्या पर्यो । उसलाई लाग्यो, “अब मरिने भइयो ।” ...................
