¿Método para aprender idiomas? ¡I got you: 70-20-10 model!

とても日本の夏らしい歌をAIで作りました。お楽しみください。

（Verse 1）
朝からアスファルトが　ジリジリ焼ける
影をさがして歩く　旅人みたいに
セミのシャウトは止まらない！
「ミーンミーンミーーーン！」命がけ！

Asphalt’s burning from 8 a.m.
I walk like a lost man, seeking shade
The cicadas scream with all their soul—
Nature’s heavy metal parade!

（Chorus）
これが日本の夏だ！
サウナより熱い、湿気の嵐
でも祭りはやめられない！
浴衣と金魚、夜空の花火！

THIS is JAPAN’s crazy summer!
Hotter than hell, and 100% humid
But festivals call, I can’t resist—
Yukata, goldfish, and fireworks kissed

（Verse 2）
Tシャツが3分で　汗だく地獄
コンビニの冷気に　心から感謝
かき氷のためなら1時間待つ
それが日本の　プライドだ！

My shirt is soaked in just three minutes
Thank you, dear konbini air!
I’d wait an hour for shaved ice joy—
That’s summer pride, we dare!

（Chorus）
これが日本の夏だ！
エアコンより強いのは友情！
夜風にゆれる風鈴の音
暑くても、忘れたくない季節

THIS is JAPAN’s burning season!
Stronger than A/C is human connection
Wind chimes sing in the warm night breeze
A season we sweat through, yet never forget

（Bridge）
外国の友よ　覚悟して来てね
日本の夏は　甘くないよ
でも一度体験したらもう
恋に落ちるんだ、この暑さに！

Dear friends from abroad—be warned!
Japan’s summer shows no mercy
But once you’ve lived it, through the heat—
You’ll fall in love with its crazy beauty!

（Final Chorus）
これが日本の夏だ！
太陽も空も本気のバトル
また来年も、この地獄で
君と笑っていたいんだ！

THIS is JAPAN’s full-power summer!
The sky and sun are in a blazing duel
But next year too, in this hot-hot hell—
I wanna laugh with you again!

Can you say "самый лучший" or is it wrong? Let's find out the answer.

Самый лучший

안녕하세요, 여러분! 오늘 팟캐스트에서는 한국어에서 자주 쓰이지만 학습자들에겐 생소할 수 있는 표현
[ -가지고]에 대해 이야기해 보려고 해요. 
우리가 흔히 아는 [그래서, -기 때문에, 왜냐하면] 등의 여러 표현 외에도, 일상 대화에서 [-가지고]라는 표현을 굉장히 많이 사용해요.
영어로는 ‘because’ 나 ‘since’의 의미로 이해하면 돼요.

우선, [-가지고]는 약간 구어체적인 느낌을 주는데요, 특히 친구들끼리 편하게 대화할 때 자주 쓰여요. 
예를 들어, “아, 늦잠 자가지고 수업에 늦었어”라고 하면 “늦잠 자서 수업에 늦었어”와 비슷한 의미지만, 좀 더 캐주얼하게 들리죠.

예문으로 볼까요?
"배가 너무 고파가지고 편의점에서 뭐 좀 샀어."

여기서 -가지고는 "너무 배고파서"의 뜻이에요. 이렇게 가볍게 이유를 덧붙이는 느낌이죠.

"버스를 놓쳐가지고 학교에 걸어갔어."

“버스를 놓쳐서”라고 할 수도 있지만, [-가지고]를 쓰면 좀 더 말하는 사람의 불만스러운 느낌이 잘 살아요.

마찬가지로,
"길이 막혀가지고 늦었어."

길이 막혀서 늦었어 대신, 더 원어민스러운 느낌이 들죠.

여러분도 평소 대화에서 [-아서] 나 [-기 때문에] 대신 [-가지고]를 한번 써보세요!
한국인 친구들이 여러분의 한국어 실력에 깜짝 놀랄지도 몰라요!

Job interview coaching, Episode 393.

Unlike most, we don’t focus on the STAR method or predictable interview questions.

Instead, we prepare you to connect with the interviewer on a deeper level, demonstrating – with your words, actions, and presence – that you are the ideal fit for the role.

You may not realize it, but many top-level decision-makers rely on their intuition alongside logic. Our approach is designed to influence their heart, not just their mind.

Join me and experience this unique coaching firsthand. Like many VPs and C-suite managers who have been my guests, you’ll leave feeling truly empowered.

To Your Success, Anatoly
