This podcast offers a comprehensive guide to understanding and using idioms, focusing on their characteristics, usage, and relationship with other figures of speech.   It distinguishes between idioms, metaphors, and similes, noting that while metaphors involve a direct or implied comparison and similes use "like" or "as," pure idioms are opaque and non-comparative, acting as traditional, fixed phrases that must be memorised. Overall, this episode serves as educational material explaining the nuances and classifications necessary for accurate comprehension of these linguistic components.

NEW PRACTICAL JAPANESE WORDS -intermediate podcast lessons!!

第６課　てくる-２

In questo episodio parleremo della differenza tra Italiano ed Inglese per ciò che riguarda i verbi di movimento e mezzi di trasporto. In inglese usiamo un verbo specifico per indicare il mezzo di locomozione, per esempio " to drive". In italiano, invece, usiamo un verbo di movimento come "andare" più il mezzo di trasporto usato, ad esempio " andare in macchina". Questo può generare confusione tra gli studenti di Italiano anglofoni, quindi ho pensato di creare questo episodio per chiarire questo punto.

Verbi di movimento e mezzi di trasporto

Ciao a tutti! ecco una nuova storia. 
E' una famosa commedia italiana, scritta da Carlo Goldoni nel 1752 che parla di una donna imprenditrice alle prese con alcuni uomini che frequentano la sua locanda. Spero che vi piaccia!

La locandiera 

El uso o tratamiento del “usted” como una de las primeras formas de contacto cultural y que es la forma en que nos podemos dirigir a una persona desconocida, ya sea para pedir información sobre una dirección, solicitar algún servicio o para presentarnos a una persona que queremos conocer.

TRANSCRIPTION (explanation included)
These various expressions for negation span a spectrum of formality and tone. In the lexicon of everyday conversation, one might simply assert "no," "nope," or "nah," and even employ a touch of informality with "not gonna happen." When a matter is more absolute, phrases like "without a doubt, no" and "under no circumstances" make the position clear. In informal settings, a definitive refusal might take the form of "not a chance" or "ain't gonna happen," perhaps even with a touch of camaraderie, as in "nah, mate." For matters requiring decorum, a formal approach may involve phrases like "I'm afraid the answer is no" or "I must decline," while adding regret, as in "regrettably, no," imparts a sense of genuine consideration. Politeness tempers the refusal in phrases such as "I'm sorry, but no" and "thank you for considering me, but I'll have to say no," expressing gratitude for the offer. The witty turn of phrase adds a touch of humor to the refusal, suggesting impossibility with expressions like "I'd sooner sprout wings and fly" or "when pigs fly." In more elevated circles, the upper class might communicate their refusal with statements like "I regret to inform you that the answer is in the negative" or "it would not be fitting, I'm afraid," while maintaining an air of politeness. For royalty, a refusal is conveyed with grace and tact, as in "one must respectfully decline" or "I cannot acquiesce to that request," underscoring the formal nature of the response. Ultimately, the choice of expression hinges on the context and the level of decorum required for the situation at hand.

How To say 'NO' in various English Registers

NASA has given SpaceX an $843 million contract to build the vehicle that will help to destroy the International Space Station (ISS).

Space X, a company that's controlled by Elon Musk, will build the vehicle but the mission will be led by NASA.

The ISS was launched in 1998 and it's likely that it will have to be removed from space in the next few years.

The station is operated by space agencies from the US, Europe, Japan, Canada and Russia. All the countries involved have said they'll operate the station until 2030 except Russia, which has said it will operate it until 2028.

Teams of astronauts have been living in the space station since 2000. During that time, they have done more than 3,300 experiments in space.

It's expected that the SpaceX vehicle will pull the ISS through space before landing it in the sea. Both are likely to break apart as they re-enter Earth's atmosphere.

NASA said that it will be focusing on "commercially owned space destinations closer to home" as life on the ISS comes to an end.

The contract is seen as another vote of confidence for the company that Musk founded in 2002.

But experts say it won't be easy bringing such a large space station back to Earth safely.

Meghan Bartels from Scientific American said it will be a "delicate" challenge.

She said it took 42 different launches to send the ISS into space, where it was put together in orbit.

She added: "The orbiting laboratory contains about as much internal space as a six-bedroom house spread over an area the size of a football field," and that it weighs almost as much as three blue whales.

It's not yet known what the vehicle will look like or exactly when the mission will take place.
