Lesson 1 text 1

En el episodio de hoy hablo de cultura española, y de algo que puede causar un choque cultural cuando visites España si en tu país no es algo común. Hablo de las palabras afectivas en el día a día, donde las puedes escuchar y quien las suele utilizar. Y el límite con el acoso callejero que no es lo mismo y está penado.

Como siempre, espero que disfrutes este episodio, si es así, ¡no te olvides de dejar una valoración! Y, dime, ¿qué piensas de esto? ¿En tu país también se usan este tipo de palabras para ser amable?

누나, 이번 주에 할머니 팔순 생신인데, 선물 뭐 사드리면 좋을까?
姐姐, 这周是奶奶的八十大寿, 买点儿什么礼物好呢? 

얼마 전에 할머니가 침대 필요하다고 하셨어.
前几天奶奶跟我说需要一张床。

그럼 우리 돈 모아서 침대 사드리자.
那我们攒钱给她买张床吧。 

그래, 할머니 피부 알레르기가 있으니까, 편백나무 침대로 사드리자.
好, 她的皮肤有点儿过敏, 我们买张扁柏木床吧。

In this episode we are going to learn 【Language】in Chinese. 
--------------------------------------------------
As a beginner, there're some vocabularies that you didn't learn before, and native speaker's speed seems too fast to understand. But don't worry, let's do it step by step. 
1st time: listen and catch the words you know already, have a guess about the content.
2nd time: look at the text to check if you guessed it right. 
3rd time: listen one more time, repeat after it.
4th time: practice until you can speak as the normal speed without looking at the text.
