IELTS Speaking Test Overview

In this week's episode of English In A Teacup, we are exploring key words and phrases to describe anger and impatience. Losing your temper is not a nice feeling, but it is a good idea to know the correct way to express yourself so that it is clear for the other person that you are not in a good mood. To assist us with this topic,  our fine English lady, Miss Finesstocrat,  will be telling us of her experience house-sharing. How did she get on? Let’s find out!

Captain Seasalt And The ABC Pirates

Letter O

"Senin, Selasa, Rabu, Kamis, Jumat, Sabtu, Minggu, itu nama-nama hari"

Ketika saya kecil, saya diajarkan lagu ini untuk mengingat nama-nama hari. 
Apa kalian juga memiliki cara unik untuk mengingatnya?
Sejujurnya, ada satu hari yang saya tunggu-tunggu setiap minggu. 
Kalian bisa menebaknya? Ya, benar, hari Jumat!
Setiap kali hari Jumat datang, saya merasa senang karena akan ada dua hari libur, 
Sabtu dan Minggu, untuk bersantai.
Omong-omong, tahukah kalian asal-usul nama-nama hari di Indonesia? 
Mari kita bahas satu per satu!

Pertama, Minggu. 
Nama ini diambil dari Bahasa Spanyol dan Portugis, "Domingo", yang berarti "hari Tuhan". 
Juga, ada pengaruh dari Bahasa Arab "Al-ahad", yang juga berarti "satu", karena merupakan hari pertama dalam seminggu. 

Kemudian, Senin. Diadaptasi dari Bahasa Arab "Itsnaani", yang berarti "dua".

Selasa, Rabu, dan Kamis, semuanya berasal dari Bahasa Arab juga, yang berarti "tiga", "empat", dan "lima" secara berurutan.

Bagaimana dengan Jumat? 
Kata "Jumat" diambil dari Bahasa Arab "Jama'a", yang artinya "berkumpul". Di hari ini, umat Islam berkumpul untuk melakukan sholat Jumat di masjid. Kalian sadar tentang hal ini?

Dan Sabtu, hari terakhir dalam seminggu. "Sabtu" berasal dari Bahasa Arab "alsabt" yang berarti "tujuh", serta dari Bahasa Ibrani "sabat", yang artinya "berhenti bekerja". 

Setelah kalian tahu lebih banyak tentang asal-usul nama hari, sekarang apa kalian punya hari favorit lain? 
Selamat menjalani hari ini ya! ^^
