111 Tips for Learning a Language 

Tip 15 – Join a Community of Language Learners

1月の第2月曜日は「成人（せいじん）の日」です。日本では去年から18才が大人のスタートになりました。世界では18才の国が多いようですね。
例外を調べてみました。えーシンガポールは21才ですね。でも、お酒とたばこは18才からって、日本と反対なのが、おもしろいです。それから、プエルトリコは14才ですか！選挙（せんきょ）もお酒もたばこもOKだなんて、ちょっと想像（そうぞう）ができない…すみません、プエルトリコの方、いらっしゃったら、教えてください。

今回は後半に古い歌を少し歌ってます。「想い出がいっぱい」
なかなか、いい歌詞（かし）です。成人式のとき、いつも思い出します。

Describe a city you think is very interesting

You should say:

What city is it
How you know of this city
What it’s famous for

And explain why you think it’s interesting





"A city I really find extremely interesting is Venice, which I think has to be one of the most amazing, and fascinating cities in the world. Venice is located in… I think….the north of Italy, on the coast,and is one of the most popular tourist destinations… not just in Italy but anywhere in the world today.
 
Venice is known as the city of canals, but there are so many other things Venice is famous for including its beautiful bridges, gondola rides, historical buildings…. interesting old streets…..Oh! and also the Venice carnival, which looks like so much fun.
I remember I first learned about Venice back when I was in high school, and we studied the Shakespeare play “The merchant of Venice……. I can still remember my English teacher showing us a short video showing all the sites of Venice……… I remember thinking…..wow! This has to be one of the most amazing cities i’ve ever seen, and decided this was a place i must visit in the future.
Venice with all of its magnificent….. historical buildings, ancient bridges and water really seems like no other city in the world today. It almost looks like something from a movie set, and is really out of this world. It’s amazing to think that this is actually a real place that still remains and looks the same as it did hundreds of years ago. I think that's what really makes it so interesting, and  makes it stand out from other cities around the world today.
  I really think there are no other cities that can be compared to Venice, and it is truly a unique city, with more interesting and fascinating sites than you can shake a stick at"
 
Thank you……

이번 에피소드에서는 한국의 나이 계산법에 대해 이야기해요. 새해만 되면 한 살 더 먹던 연 나이에서 생일 기준으로 나이를 계산하는 만 나이로 바뀐 이야기를 나눠요. 빠른년생이라는 재미있는 개념과, 열두 띠를 통해 나이를 추측하는 한국식 대화법도 소개할게요.

In this episode, we chat about Korea’s age system—how everyone used to turn a year older on January 1st (연 나이) and how it’s changed to the international method (만 나이). We’ll also dive into the fun concept of 빠른년생 (early-born students) and how Koreans use the 12 zodiac animals (열두 띠) to guess someone’s age.
