Onko suomen oppiminen helpompaa ruotsia tai englantia äidinkielenään puhuville? Lainasanat ovat osa puhuttua kieltä, on luonnollista lainata sanoja ja suomalaistaa ne. Tässä podcastin jaksossa käsittelen suomen kielen lainasanoja ja käytän esimerkkinä aivan loistavaa Fred Karlssonin kielioppikirjaa. Kun astuu suomalaiseen kielimaailmaan, törmää ankkaan, pankkiin ja penkkiin.

New Year Vibes

3000 Most Common Words

This is a clean and tidy office. A photo is displayed on the wall. It shows the Memory Stationery staff standing proud in front of a new warehouse. Everyone’s face is full of optimism.  But today the company atmosphere is tense. A4, the CEO of the company, is at his desk and on the phone; he is facing out the window at the sky. His facial expression is timid.

“I hear you, Mr. Scissors,” says A4. “But it’s impossible. I can’t take our prices down that low. You’re asking me to sacrifice our entire profit margin.”

A4 sits in silence as he listens to the response. A bead of sweat runs down the CEO’s face. The voice on the other end is frightening him.

“Sir, last month I discounted our products to the bottom line… Yes, but, please, sir, I’m just an
honest wholesaler. I promise I’m not trying to take advantage of you… Other retailers are happy to pay market rate—”

A4 suddenly pulls the phone away from his ear. The voice is furious and aggressive. It is blasting out the tiny speaker. When the harsh noise calms down, A4 puts the phone back to his ear.

“No, please, don’t cut me. Please, sir. You’re right, okay? You’re right. That was rude of me, I’m
sorry… I know. I’m a scrap. You’re right. I’m no better than a tissue. You’re right…”

A4 changes his tone. He isn’t pleading anymore. He sounds like he has given up.

“Mr. Scissors. I’ll look at our margins and call you back. There might be some way we can go down lower…”

A4 hangs up the phone. He leans back in his chair. His eyes are glazed over. He is deep in
contemplation. He imagines the brutal scenario of Mr. Scissors cutting him into a thousand pieces.

Throughout this entire time, A4 has been recording the conversation onto his paper body. This is his natural ability. A4’s unmistakable memory is the reason why he is the CEO.

A4 picks up the phone and dials a number. Life returns to his eyes.

“Backpack, get everyone together in the meeting room. I have an announcement.”

A4 the Piece of Paper 

I use HSK 1 vocabulary to tell you a Chinese folktale, the Cowherd and the Weaving Maid .

八百年前，有一个人，他有一只牛，他没有钱，他的家很小很小，大家都叫他牛郎。牛郎天天给牛吃好吃的东西，牛很喜欢牛郎。牛郎十八岁了，还没有女朋友。牛郎的牛会说话，有一天，他说，牛郎，你明天工作的时候，晚一点回家，你会看见一个美女，她是你的女朋友。 
天上有一个女人，她很漂亮，大家都叫她织女。织女八岁的时候，喜欢了一个男孩。这个男孩有一只牛。织女在天上工作，她工作的时候，可以看到牛郎。织女很想和牛郎说话。可是她的妈妈说，她太小了，现在还不可以有男朋友。现在织女十六岁了，她很想有一个男朋友。
有一天，她和朋友一起去玩水。她们很高兴，玩了五个小时，还不想回家。晚上六点，她们要回家的时候，下雨了。雨很大。织女的朋友们都飞回家了。可是织女的衣服不见了。这时候，织女听见一个人说：你好，请问这是你的衣服吗？织女不好意思地说：是的，谢谢你。织女看见这个人是牛郎，她心里非常高兴。织女很漂亮，是一个大美女。牛郎很喜欢织女，他很想织女做他女朋友，他说：“现在下大雨，你要不要去我家坐坐？” 织女高兴地说：“很谢谢你，我们去你家吧。” 牛郎做饭给织女吃，织女做漂亮的衣服给牛郎。织女和牛郎住在一起了，他们都很高兴。织女的妈妈知道后，她在天上看织女的男朋友。 她知道牛郎没有钱后，她不高兴了，她不想女儿和牛郎在一起。她叫织女回家。可是织女很喜欢和牛郎住在一起。织女不想回家了。一年后，她和牛郎有一个女儿。他们的女儿很可爱。织女很爱这个家。
织女妈妈知道后很不高兴。她去了牛郎家，带（dài = to bring）织女回家。织女回家后很不高兴，她很想回去牛郎家，看看牛郎和她的女儿。织女的爸爸很爱她，他叫牛郎七月七日来天上，看看织女。牛郎很高兴，他和女儿每年七月七日都会坐牛飞到天上，看织女。
