🎭 La Muñeca de Sofía 🎭

Sofía encontró una muñeca antigua en un mercado de antigüedades. Sus ojos de vidrio parecían seguirla a donde fuera, pero a pesar de lo inquietante que era, decidió comprarla. Al llegar a casa, la colocó en su habitación, sin notar que, desde ese momento, pequeños sucesos extraños comenzaron a ocurrir: las luces parpadeaban, los objetos cambiaban de lugar y, por las noches, juraba escuchar susurros.

Una noche, Sofía despertó con una sensación extraña. Miró hacia su escritorio y vio la muñeca… pero esta ya no estaba sentada donde la había dejado. Ahora estaba en la silla, frente a su cama, con su cabeza inclinada como si la estuviera observando. Atemorizada, la tomó y la guardó en un armario, pero al día siguiente, la muñeca apareció nuevamente sobre su cama, con una siniestra sonrisa en su rostro.

Desesperada, Sofía llevó la muñeca de vuelta al mercado, pero el vendedor la miró con sorpresa. “Esa muñeca… yo nunca te la vendí”, dijo con un escalofrío en la voz. En ese instante, la muñeca cayó al suelo y se escuchó una risa tenue en el aire. Sofía salió corriendo sin mirar atrás, jurando no volver a comprar nada en ese lugar. Pero cuando llegó a casa, su corazón se detuvo: la muñeca la estaba esperando en su habitación.

Spanish Reading Comprehesion

Sofia's doll

In the vocabulary of 'Minna no Nihongo' Chapter 1, there are the words ”きょうし”  and ”せんせい” . Do you understand the difference? Both translate to 'teacher,' but ”きょうし” generally refers to school teachers, with a few exceptions. For example, it does not refer to those who teach at cram schools . On the other hand, ”せんせい” has a broader meaning. At this point in Lesson 1, you might not need to worry too much about it, but I will explain.

Of course, school teachers are included, but also instructors at cram schools, doctors, politicians, and sports instructors can all be called '先生.' In Lesson 17 on page 145, there is a conversation between a doctor and Matsumoto-san, and if Matsumoto-san were to refer to this doctor, they would normally call them “せんせい” not ”いしゃ” , which means ”doctor.”

This might change the subject a bit, but regarding my 'Minna no Nihongo course,' I have created a substantial amount of homework with audio. Just taking lessons alone won't significantly improve your skills. I believe this homework will be quite effective. Of course, it is not mandatory; whether to do it or not depends on the students. 
For those who want to start Japanese lessons but aren’t sure where to begin, please give it a try.

Alright. So everyone, please do your best with Japanese. See you again!
