EP41.她約我去迪士尼（上）

In this episode, I make some observations about different conversational styles among native and non-native English speakers. I am generalizing, of course, and these are just my thoughts, based on what I've experienced in my life. *

I'd love to hear what YOU think! What have you observed? 

Here are some questions you might want to talk to yourself or write about - as we reflect on the year that has ended. Maybe you want to create a short monologue by recording your thoughts in a voice memo on your phone. Or perhaps you could try writing down your ideas on your phone or on a piece of paper. Do it for 5 or 10 minutes, and don't worry about your grammar or vocabulary. Writing is a great PROCESS - an exercise where you can use your English - anywhere, anytime, without a teacher or a listener. So getting in the HABIT of writing or speaking to yourself is as important as the words you use. Over time, your skills will improve! 

---- QUESTIONS TO ANSWER -----

What does the word SUCCESS mean to you? 
What does SUCCESS LOOK LIKE to you? 
What is something you have SUCCEEDED AT?

Based on YOUR definition of success - what made 2023 a successful year for you?
What will make 2024 a successful year for you? 

And here's a THOUGHT EXPERIMENT and a WRITING EXERCISE.
Imagine it is December 31, 2024. Using past tenses, write about what made 2024 a successful year for you. (This may feel strange, but it’s a great exercise for your English and for your mind! It can be fun and transformative, too!)

*Note - In this episode, I make the mistake of using the word "American" to refer to people from the US. This is a bad habit that I am (still) trying to break. The truth is that we are all Americans in the whole hemisphere - North and South. But, as they say, "old habits die hard" or existing patterns are hard to change.

23. "25 21" (스물다섯 스물하나)

In today's episode, a Ukrainian student, Kateryna, talks about the day that she met the war, and how her life in Kiev has changed in recent months. This is not a political podcast; it is the heart-wrenching story from the mouth of one student who has been affected by the conflict. In the podcast, Kateryna talks about how she was over 1,000km from her children when the fighting started, and her journey to find safety as war raged around her. She also speaks about the little creature comforts she misses from home, and how her love for her husband has grown even stronger since the outbreak of the war. Most importantly, she talks about her hopes for the future, once the fighting has stopped. Listen now to Kateryna's moving story.

こんにちは！
Japanese daily life podcast のAtsushiです。
このPodcastは、日本語を勉強しているみなさんに向けたPodcastです。


今僕たちは、アジア旅行に来ています。
約1か月の旅行中です。
4つの国に行きます。

シンガポール
マレーシア
ベトナム
タイ

です。


月曜までマレーシアにいました。
今回のPodcastでは、マレーシアの良いところを5つあげます！


・みんな笑ってくれる
　店の人やセキュリティの人、サービススタッフの人など、目が合うとにこっと笑ってくれます。オープンで親しみやすい感じがします。

・ヒジャブを身につけている女性が多い
　マレーシアは64%の人がイスラム教だそうです。ですので、ヒジャブを頭にまいている女性をたくさん見ます。日本ではなかなか見かけないので、とても新鮮な印象です。

・セキュリティの人がいるので安心
　アパートメントやモール、スーパーなど、いろんなところに必ずセキュリティの人が何人かいます。もちろん、変な人もいないですが、セキュリティの人がいるととても安心できます。

・いろんな文化が混ざっている
　マレー系、中華系、インド系の人たちの歴史、文化がミックスされた形で、今のマレーシアがあることを知りました。違うものが当たり前にそこにあることで、共存することも自然のように感じました。

・電車がきれい
　比較的新しくできた電車やモノレールはとてもきれいです。駅もきれいだし、電車の中もきれいです。ただ行きたい場所にすっと行けるわけではないです。遠回りで時間がかかるので、結局grabタクシーを使う人が多いような気がします。


こんな感じでした！

違う国にいくと、いろんなことに気づくことができて楽しいですね。シンガポールとマレーシアは日本よりも赤道に近いですが、気温は日本より低く、むし暑くなかったです。

日本の夏は本当に暑いと思います。
日本にいる方は、昼外に出る時、気をつけてくださいね！

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！
