优雅是种力量(六）有一种勇敢，叫“算了”

Halo! Apa kabar semua? Semoga semua sehat ya! Hari ini adalah awal minggu. Biasanya, Hari Senin adalah hari yang sibuk untuk saya. 
Akhir-akhir ini, hampir setiap hari saya suka mendengar lagu dari salah satu penyanyi terkenal di Indonesia. Sekarang, Dia adalah penyanyi yang sedang "naik daun". Artinya di Bahasa Inggris, "Now, He/she is a rising star or now, he/she is becoming a popular singer". Di Bahasa Jepang artinya 今、ノリに乗ってる歌手。Siapa penyanyi yang sedang naik daun di negara kamu? atau menurut kalian, siapa artis dunia yang sedang naik daun sekarang ini? 
Saya suka mendengar lagu sambil bekerja atau belajar. Saya bisa lebih berkonsentrasi. Bagaimana dengan kalian? Kalian juga suka mendengar musik atau lagu sambil bekerja? 
Ok! Hari ini sampai di sini, selamat belajar, selamat bekerja ya! Sampai jumpa lagi! ^^


Akhir minggu

Naik daun

Ciao a tutti e ben ritrovati!
In questo episodio vi racconto ciò che mi è successo ieri mentre ero a lavoro, come sempre ho aggiunto il mio punto di vista su alcuni aspetti dell'apprendimento linguistico, come pronuncia e accenti. Buon ascolto e alla prossima!
