以前、从前

Hoje nossa viagem falada vai nos levar até o Norte do Brasil, a maior região do país em extensão territorial, onde a Amazônia domina a paisagem e inspira o coração.
São sete estados incríveis: Acre, Amapá, Amazonas, Pará, Rondônia, Roraima e Tocantins. Lá, a natureza é majestosa, e a vida — muitas vezes rural, outras vezes urbana — tem um ritmo todo seu, marcado por rios e por lendas antigas.
Ao falar do Norte, a primeira imagem que vem à mente é a Floresta Amazônica, a maior floresta tropical do mundo — um verdadeiro veículo verde cheio de biodiversidade. Ela abriga milhares de espécies de plantas, animais e insetos que você não verá em nenhum outro lugar.
E por falar em rios… O Rio Amazonas, com seus afluentes, forma a maior bacia hidrográfica do planeta. É como se o mundo respirasse ali. Barcos, pequenas comunidades ribeirinhas, peixes gigantes como o pirarucu… Tudo isso faz parte do cotidiano de quem vive às margens desses rios — inclusive em Manaus, a “cidade da selva”.
E você sabia que em alguns lugares do Norte existe a ocorrência da cheia e da seca, e as casas ficam sobre palafitas para acompanhar o sobe e desce da água? É uma adaptação incrível — simples e elegante.
A cultura do Norte é rica em festividades e expressões artísticas. Tem o Festival Folclórico do Amazonas, o boi-bumbá no Pará — com destaque para o famoso Boi-Bumbá de Parintins — e tradições indígenas que mantêm vivas suas línguas, opiniões e saberes.
E a gastronomia… ah, essa é de emocionar! Tem tacacá, maniçoba, pato no tucupi, jambu, além de belíssimos frutos amazônicos, como o açaí, o cupuaçu e o tucumã. O gosto é forte, exótico e inesquecível.
A região também é símbolo de resistência — tanto ecológica quanto cultural. Comunidades indígenas, quilombolas e ribeirinhas lutam para preservar a floresta e suas tradições, enfrentando desafios para manter o equilíbrio entre o homem e a natureza.

Thai for Everyone with Kru Robert

EP10  How to say 'Happy Birthday To You' in Thai [Native speaker] #learnthai #Thailanguage

In this episode you will learn the word " สมมุติ" ( what if / suppose / supposing)  as you here some part of the lyric

..............."ถ้าสมมุติว่าเธอ ไม่ได้เจอเขาก่อน เธอชอบฉันแน่นอนฉันมั่นใจ
               ก่อนที่เขาจะชอบเธอ อยากให้ลองคิดใหม่ อีกทีได้ไหม คิดอีกที 
               ถ้าไม่นับเรื่องนี้ ที่เธอชอบเขาอยู่ ฉันว่าเราก็ดูเข้ากันเธอว่าไหม 
               ถ้าไม่นับเรื่องนั้น ฉันให้คิดดูใหม่ แกล้งลืม ๆ ว่าเธอชอบเขาไป
               เราก็เป็นแฟนกันได้เธอว่าเปล่า"
               สมมุติว่าเธอไม่ได้ชอบเขา แล้วเราจะเป็นได้มากกว่านี้ไหม 
               สมมุติว่าใจเธอยังไม่มีใคร เป็นฉันได้ไหม'..............................

สมมุติว่า = Suppose / supposing that
สมมุติว่าผมถูกล็อตเตอรี่หกสิบล้านบาท ผมจะสร้างบ้านหลังใหญ่
(Supposing that I won lottery 60 millions Baht, I would build a big house.)
