Cuento "El Lobo y los siete cabritos"

A smile, a “hello” and a “how are you” will make an immediate
positive impression. Thailand is known as the Land of Smiles, and
you will soon be saying “hello” and smiling with more people than
you can remember.
TOP TIP: When referring to the self in Thai, as in “I”, there is a
form for male and a form for female, just as there is with khrup and
ka. Men say “Phom”, and women say “Chan”, or “Di-chan” when
speaking very politely.
There are also forms where age is concerned. When speaking to
an elder, you should refer to that person as “Pii”. To get the
attention of an elder you would say, “Pii khrup/ka”. To get the
attention of a younger person you would say, “Nong khrup/ka”.
When referring to a child you can use the word “Luuk”, which
literally means child.

爱的细节

杨绛和钱钟书的爱情故事

From fast-food counters to Michelin-starred restaurants, the hamburger is much loved in the Western diet, but where did it come from?

The Merriam-Webster Dictionary defines a hamburger as both "ground beef" and "a sandwich consisting of a patty of hamburger" on a bun. Although these might be the simplest forms of a hamburger, the sandwich is often eaten with other things added, such as lettuce, cheese, sauces and even other meats.

But this popular food didn't start out with all the extras. In fact, it's thought that one of the earliest forms of the hamburger was closer to a steak tartare — raw minced steak mixed with egg.

While a recipe from the Roman Empire suggests the earliest version of this meal, some believe that it came from Mongolian horsemen, who would place beef under their saddles while riding, so that by the end of the day it was tender enough to eat raw.

However, others say these riders placed meat under their saddles only to help heal their horses' sores, and any meat prepared this way would be too dirty to be edible.

A later version is thought to have come from the German city of Hamburg, where chefs around the 17th or 18th century cooked minced beef with onions and breadcrumbs. This came to be known in English as the "Hamburg steak," and made its way to the US during the 19th century, where it was later called the "hamburger."

Although it isn't known who first thought to put this minced meat on bread, adding a bun made the hamburger popular as a sandwich in the US. The first fast-food hamburger chain — named White Castle — was opened in 1921, and still sells its famous square-shaped hamburgers to this day.

Now, hamburgers can be found worldwide thanks to popular American fast-food restaurants such as McDonald's, Burger King and Wendy's. In 2012, PBS reported that an estimated 50 billion hamburgers are eaten in the US alone every year.
