【ピザの歌】a song about Japanese pizza

Chinese story
《同学的爱》  The Classmates’ love

在重庆市的一家医院里，有一位女孩儿躺在病床上。她叫小菲，今年十七岁。
There was a little girl lying in bed in a hospital in Chongqing City. She was called Xiao-Fei, aged 17.
二零一二年夏天她还可以在外面跟朋友、同学一起玩儿，但是她现在只能躺在床上，因为二零一二年八月，她发现自己生病了，而且是白血病。
She could still play with friends and classmates outside in the summer of 2012. Now she could only lie in bed, as she found herself sick in August, 2012 and was diagnosed with leukemia.

小菲的高中同学都很难过。为了鼓励她，小菲的高中同学也和她一起做出改变，这让她觉得很多人都在支持她。
Xiao-Fei’s high school classmates all grieved for her. To encourage her, her high school friends also made changes with her to make her feel that many were supporting her.

小菲生病以后，每天都必须早睡早起，锻炼身体。小菲的同学也开始每天早睡早起，锻炼身体。他们让小菲知道，他们正在和她做一样的事。小菲只能喝开水，不能再喝可乐了。小菲的同学也和她一样不再喝可乐。
After getting sick, Xiao-Fei needed to go to bed and get up early to exercise. Her classmates also started to go to bed and get up early. They let Xiao-Fei know that they were doing the same thing. Xiao-Fei could only drink water, but not coke anymore, and her classmates followed suit.

小菲的同学对小菲说：“你不放弃，我们也不会放弃！”
“If you don’t give up, we won’t either,” Xiao-Fei’s classmates told her.

同学们知道小菲需要很多钱治疗，所以大家拿着箱子向路人募捐，最后募到了兩万多元。
Her classmates knew that Xiao-Fei needed lots of money for treatment, so all of them carried boxes to raise money from pedestrians. Eventually, they gathered a total of 20,000.

小菲看到大家这么支持她，她说：“大家这么关心我，我一定会更努力让自己好起来。”
Knowing that all of them were supporting her, Xiao-Fei said: “All of you cared about me so much; I will certainly try my best to get well.”

Slow German Podcast for Beginners / Episode 33 Oktoberfest (A1-B1)

Esta es una semana en la que hay que hacer ejercicios de contención para que el ego no se suba por las nubes. Estoy recibiendo muy buenas noticias de estudiantes con los que estuve trabajando en su preparación del DELE durante la convocatoria de mayo y la verdad, es que todo han sido buenas o muy buenas noticias. 

Además, los estudiantes de fonética, sin excepción, están consiguiendo no solo mejorar la fonética, sino también aprender a monitorizarse y auto-corregirse logrando mejoras en la pronunciación ¡y en la autoestima!
Déjame añadir que no hay día que no reciba algún comentario post-clase que me “ponga por las nubes” y que casi me haga olvidar un pequeño gran detalle: Yo solo soy una guía... una brújula. El profesor eres tú.

НЕПРАВИЛНА МНОЖИНА ИМЕНИЦА – Basic Serbian nouns with irregular plural (explained in English) (A1 level)

In this podcast episode, Curtis Davies and Amy Whitney delve into the topic of accent and pronunciation in English.
 
They challenge the common belief that achieving a native-like accent is necessary for effective communication. Instead, they emphasize the importance of speaking with clarity, being understood, and understanding others.
 
Curtis and Amy discuss how accent is tied to identity and nationality, highlighting that having a unique accent is not something to be ashamed of but rather a reflection of one's background.
 
They offer insights into identifying areas for improvement in pronunciation and provide practical tips for enhancing accent, tone, intonation, and rhythm.
 
Through engaging discussions and exercises, you will gain a new perspective on accent and learn strategies to communicate confidently and effectively in English.
