Quadrilha

João amava Teresa que amava Raimundo
que amava Maria que amava Joaquim que amava Lili,
que não amava ninguém.
João foi para os Estados Unidos, Teresa para o convento,
Raimundo morreu de desastre, Maria ficou para tia,
Joaquim suicidou-se e Lili casou com J. Pinto Fernandes
que não tinha entrado na história.

[Alguma Poesia, 1930)

En montagne
Deux petites tortues partent en montagne. Elles ont décidé d'escalader Le Mont Blanc. C'est une très haute montagne. Son sommet touche presque le ciel!
Comme il fait froid, elles ont des bonnets de laine et de grosses bottines à lacets. Les tortues marchent très lentement.
Des pierres roulent, une tortue glisse… Vite, son amie lui lance une corde, elle l'attrape avec son bec et se hisse jusqu'en haut! Il faut du courage, c'est dur d'arriver au sommet.
Enfin, le voilà! Le soleil brille sur la neige, l'air est froid et sec. Les tortues fatiguées se reposent et admirent le paysage avant de redescendre. Elles reviendront bientôt, c'est si beau!

Des Milliers D'histoires

Histoire 41 - En montagne

Dubai has begun work on a new $35 billion airport terminal that will become the world's busiest when it's finished, according to the state's ruler.

Sheikh Mohammed bin Rashid Al Maktoum said that the new terminal at Al Maktoum International airport will one day handle up to 260 million passengers per year.

But if that sounds like a travel nightmare, the CEO of Dubai Airports has different ideas. Paul Griffiths said that at the 400-gate airport there will be less walking, less waiting and no queues.

Griffiths said that airports around the world have gotten lazy and this one will change the way airports work.

His plan includes having security and passport checkpoints spread out around the terminal to save people time.

But 260 million is a lot of passengers. It's more than double the number that used the world's busiest airport in 2023. Hartsfield-Jackson Airport in Atlanta, Georgia, handled 105 million passengers last year.

Dubai International Airport (DXB), the state's main airport at the moment, was second in that list with 87 million passengers.

However, all of that traffic will move to Al Maktoum over the next few years, according to Sheikh Mohammed.

Al Maktoum, which first opened in 2010, will be five times bigger than DXB when it's finished.

It's not only at the airport that building is taking place. Sheikh Mohammed said that an "entire city" will be built in the area around the airport, with homes for a million people.

"Dubai will be the world's airport," he said on X, and the world's "new global center."

こんにちは！Atsushiです。
今日も少しだけ、雪がふりました。
どんどん寒くなります。
コロナの感染者も増えているので気をつけようと思っています。


さて、今日は和食について。
みなさんは、和食、と聞いたら何を思い浮かべますか？
寿司？ラーメン？焼肉？
いろんな種類の和食がありますね。

今回はそんな中でも、
日本人の伝統的な食文化としての、和食について、いくつ簡単に話しますね。

季節ごとに楽しめる食材があります。
食を通して家族は絆を強めていました。
一汁三菜いちじゅうさんさい、といって、栄養バランスが良い。

などが特徴です。

他にも、
ローカルな地元の郷土料理がある。
おせち料理、行事の食事など、
たくさんの特徴があります。

日本では、食べる前に、いただきます、
食べた後にごちそうさまでした、といいます。

食材や、料理した人、食べることへの感謝などを手を合わせて言う、ということも日本ならではかもしれませんね。

小さい時ははしの持ち方に苦労したことを今思い出しました。


とはいえ、このような和食の文化はどんどんなくなっているようにも感じます。自分も小さい時に比べると和食を食べることは減りました。

でも、このオンラインレッスンで海外のみなさんと話すことで、もっと日本のことを知りたいなと思うようになりました。みなさんに日本のことを伝えたいと思います。

そのためにも、和食についても少し勉強してみようと思います。時々、Podcastでも和食について話しますね！

みなさんの好きな和食はなんですか？
よければ、オンラインレッスン、italkiで話しましょう！

ということで、今回も最後まで聞いていただき、ありがとうございます！

ではまた！
