Les souriceaux chamailleurs
Ted et Teddy, les souriceaux, sont d'abominables garnements. Dans la grande chambre, où papa et maman tentent de les border, ils mènent un tapage infernal. C'est alors que passe la fée Souris. Elle dépose un peu de poudre de sommeil sur l’oreiller de chacun. Rapidement, les paupières se font lourdes et Ted et Teddy s’endorment paisiblement. Ils feront des rêves délicieux…

Histoire 33 - Les souriceaux chamailleurs

WHY DID YOU LEAVE YOUR LAST JOB? - Stay positive regardless of the circumstances. Never refer to a major problem with management and never speak ill of supervisors, co-workers or the
organisation. If you do, you will be the one looking bad. Keep smiling and talk about leaving for a positive reason such as an opportunity, a chance to do something special or other forward-looking reasons. 
DO YOU CONSIDER YOURSELF SUCCESSFUL? - You should always answer yes and briefly explain why. A good explanation is that you have set goals, and you have met some and are on track to achieve the others.
WHAT DO CO-WORKERS SAY ABOUT YOU? - Be prepared with a quote or two from co-workers. Either a specific statement or a paraphrase will work.

Podcast: La Navidad en España. 

LUKE: Hello? Hi, Stephanie, how are things at the office?
STEPHANIE: Hi, Luke! How are you? Can you please stop and pick up 
extra paper for the computer printer?
LUKE: What did you say? Can you repeat that, please? Did you 
say to pick up ink for the printer? Sorry, the phone is 
cutting out.
STEPHANIE: Can you hear me now? No, I need more computer paper. 
Listen, I’ll text you exactly what I need. Thanks, Luke. 
Talk to you later.
LUKE: Thanks, Stephanie. Sorry, my phone has really bad
reception here.



LANGUAGE NOTES
• There are a few ways to express a lack of understanding and to request additional 
information. The most common ones are stated, but you can also say “Excuse me” or 
simply “I can’t hear you.” In a more formal situation, try saying “I’m sorry?” or “I beg 
your pardon?” (with a rising intonation).
• When asking someone to clarify information try saying Can you please repeat that? / 
Can you spell that for me? / Can you please write down the address for me?
• Cutting out describes a difficulty in understanding a caller due to poor cellphone 
reception. If you are having trouble understanding the caller, you can also say The 
line is breaking up / I am losing you. If the phone call is disconnected because of poor 
reception, you can say The call dropped.
• Talk to you later is the equivalent in a phone conversation of “See you later” in a 
regular, face-to-face conversation.
• Reception here means the availability of cellular service, the possibility to receive and 
give calls on a cellphone. Cellphone reception can be limited in remote areas, inside 
large buildings or underground (in the subway, for instance).

Day 7: Asking them to repeat

I coccodrilli e gli alligatori si assomigliano. Hanno entrambi fauci enormi con denti aguzzi e una lunga coda. Il loro corpo è coperto di squame irregolari. Gli alligatori hanno il muso largo, arrotondato e a forma di U.
Di solito sono di colore scuro. Il muso è la parte sporgente della testa di un animale, comprendente naso e bocca. I coccodrilli hanno il muso più sottile. Inoltre sono di colore più chiaro rispetto agli alligatori. Alligatori e coccodrilli sono diversi, ma sono entrambi rettili. Il corpo di un rettile può avere le squame o le placche ossee. Serpenti e lucertole sono rettili con le squame. Gli alligatore e i coccodrilli, invece, hanno le placche ossee, chiamate “scuti“. Sia le squame, che gli scudi proteggono il corpo del rettile. 
Alligatori e coccodrilli appartengono all’ordine dei Crocodylia e sono detti anche “LORICATI“. 
Ne esistono 25 specie diverse. Di solito vivono nelle zone calde di tutto il mondo. I loricati non si allontanano mai dall’acqua. Trascorrono molto tempo immersi in pozze, laghi, paludi, acquitrini, fiumi e pantani. Tutti i loricati hanno sensi molto sviluppati. Vista, olfatto e udito sono migliori rispetto a quelli di altri rettili. Al buio vedono meglio di noi. Anche la loro pelle è molto particolare: riescono a percepire i movimenti degli animali, così nell’acqua fangosa  individuano facilmente la preda.

こんばんは！
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N4です！
〜必要がある、をします。

ーしないといけない、ということを言いたい時に使います。英語だと、necessary to とかneed to ですかね。

早速例文、いきましょう！


・オランダに移住するには、フリーランスビザを取る必要があります。

・車を運転するには、運転免許を取る必要があります。

・学校で日本語を教えるには、日本語教師の資格を取る必要があります。

・三鷹の森美術館に行くには、予約を取る必要があります。

・海外で生活するには、英語を勉強する必要があります。


こんな感じですね！
伝わりましたか？


自分の気持ちのーしないといけない、というよりも、資格とか、予約とか、システム上などでそうしないとできない、という時に使うことが多いです。

日本に引っ越しをする人はもしかしたら、移住のための書類を用意する必要がある、というような文をたくさん使うかもしれないですね。


時々紹介していますが、ぼくはKindleで日本語の本を作っています。

動詞や名詞、数字などについて例文をたくさんのせた本です。動詞で1冊、名詞で1冊、など今全部で6冊？かな、作っています。

本を見ながら勉強するのが好きな人はぜひ一度見てみてください！例文をのせているので、使い方がわかりやすいと思います。

ということで、今回も最後まで聞いていただき、ありがとうございます！ではまた！
