不被看见的需要

小张辞职后做起了自媒体。有一天，她准备坐高铁，忽然想到可以录一段怎么坐高铁的视频。她拿出手机，面对镜头仔细地讲解着坐高铁的每一个步骤。没想到视频发布后，很多网友留言，说：“没有坐过高铁，真的很有用。”更让她惊讶的是，原来她的账号不到18万粉丝，发布这个视频两周后粉丝量就突破了百万，迅速“破圈”。
这么普通、日常的内容，怎么就火了呢？事实给出了答案。不仅有人想知道“如何坐高铁？”，还有人想知道“如何坐飞机？”“如何叫网约车？”“如何办护照？”等等。
因为年龄、地域、受教育程度不同，很多看起来很常识性的事情，就是有人不知道。一个人习以为常的每件小事，都可能是另一个人的生活盲区。看见不被看见的需要，不仅是对别人的一种帮助，而且也可能是你成功的机会。

边听边说 More than Chinese Listening

第十二集 不被看见的需要

This week, you’ll hear from the very first guest on the Express to Impress podcast. Allyson Plumberg, Founder of Rooted Accents: Solutions for Accent Modification, joins me to discuss accent modification. 

Allyson provides speech therapy services and accent modification coaching to students and professionals worldwide. She has a Master of Science degree in Speech-Language Pathology from Arizona State University.

The episode is the first of two with my conversation with Allison. It’s packed full of useful information for English language learners. 

We kick off the conversation with a definition of an accent and have a quick discussion about the General American English accent and micro accents.

Then, we dive into a discussion about common beliefs about accents. Allison debunks common myths that limit people from being able to speak English effectively.

We also talk about speaking speed, word stress, content versus function words, stressed and unstressed syllables, reductions, contractions, and more! 

Episode originally published February 26, 2021.

Jaksaa, jaksaa vai jaksaako? Tässä viidennessä jaksossa pureudun henkilökohtaisempaan aiheeseen miettiessäni jaksamista uuden kielen opiskelutaipaleella. Kieltä opiskeltaessa on hyvä pitää taukoja ja antaa aivojen levätä. Miten itse jaksoin opiskella venäjää ja miten kieliopintoni Venäjällä meni? Kerron myös omista toimittajakokemuksistani ulkosuomalaisessa sanomalehdessä ja miltä tuntui työskennellä venäjänkielisessä ympäristössä.

Suomea for you

5. jakso: Jaksaminen

I was watching the podcast of Vivian Tu, when I noticed some remarks on the comment section are saying that she is very masculine. I believe that many women in business had to toughen up a bit and become more like men so that they can succeed. For somehow, who  is also trying her luck in business, I felt like my character is becoming more of a man and I am losing my feminine side because I can't even cry anymore.

In questo episodio leggo una poesia di Giosuè Carducci, con l'aiuto dei suoni rievoco alcuni dei sui versi. Se vi interessa scoprire di più di questo poeta e delle sue poesie prenotate una lezione di letteratura con me!

Testo:
La nebbia a gl'irti colli
piovigginando sale,
e sotto il maestrale
urla e biancheggia il mar;

ma per le vie del borgo
dal ribollir de' tini
va l'aspro odor de i vini
l'anime a rallegrar.

Gira su' ceppi accesi
lo spiedo scoppiettando:
sta il cacciator fischiando
sull'uscio a rimirar

tra le rossastre nubi
stormi d'uccelli neri,
com'esuli pensieri,
nel vespero migrar.
