شهر همدان

Questa volta la rubrica si è spinta oltre. E quindi anche io.
Ho viaggiato per due giorni all’andata, e più di due giorni al ritorno, per coronare un sogno.
Che ho realizzato solo in parte, però.
Ma partiamo con ordine: decidere di andare in Australia, o meglio, a Sydney.
Ma cosa mi avrà mai detto il cervello?
Senza stare a spiegare perché e per come, sono atterrata dall’altra parte del mondo (l’altra parte per noi europei chiaramente).

みなさんは「さっき」という言葉を聞いたことがありますか？「さっき起きました」「さっきまで勉強していました」など、「さっき」とは少し前という意味です。昨日より前に起こったことは「さっき」とは言いません。
では、「さっき」より前のことはどう言いますか？いつのことかを覚えている場合は「先週友達とご飯を食べました。」とはっきりとその時を示した方が分かりやすいと思います。いつのことか覚えていない場合は、「前に」や「この前」、「以前」などを使います。
例えば「前に会ったことがあります」「この前はじめてお寿司を食べました」「以前この場所に来たことがあります」と言います。ちなみに「前に」や「この前」、「以前」はニュアンスがそれぞれ少しずつ違うので自分で例文を作って練習したり、日本人がどのように使い分けているかを注意して聞いてみてください。

このポッドキャストを今初めて聞いている人は、前のポッドキャストも聞いて勉強していくださいね。

Nihongo Short Story by Noriko

さっき-Today’s Word

Some people love to brag. They might brag about where they live, the money they make or how great they are at sports.

In fact, some people even brag about how busy or stressed they are.

And it's becoming quite common.

It's called "busy bragging" or "stress bragging" — and people find it just as annoying as any other bragging.

You may have heard it at your workplace, when people tell everyone about how much work they have to do, or say things like: "You have no idea of the stress I'm under."

They might be doing this to show others that they're important or working hard.

However, a study from the US found that the colleagues of stress braggers find those people less likable and less competent because of their bragging.

And colleagues were found to be less likely to help stress braggers.

The study also found that colleagues may even begin to feel stress themselves because of the effect of people stress bragging.

Study author Jessica Rodell said: "People are harming themselves by doing this thing they think is going to make them look better to their colleagues."

However, Rodell said sharing workplace stress with others is not a bad thing to do: it's only when people brag about their stress that it causes negative feelings.

"It's not the being stressed part that's a problem," she said. In fact, the study found that if your colleagues think you're stressed, they do think you're more competent.

You just can't brag about it.
