Pa' Que Sepáis Podcast

Entre Gustos y Colores

In this episode, since it is the first Monday of the month, we will embark on a thrilling journey that will immerse us in the sights, sounds and stories of one country. 

We'll connect with a local to learn about the country, its culture, and dispel some of those stereotypes that we may all have. In this episode, we won't just be tourists, we'll be explorers. 

Meet someone who knows this destination better than anyone I know. Our guest today is Nidia. She will be our guide as we travel to Honduras. 

Let's go!

Bilmem ki hâtıralar,
Ne istersiniz benden,
Gelir gelmez sonbahar?

Bu kanad çırpış neden?
Cama vuracak ne var
Ey eski hâtıralar

Sanmayın güller açar,
Bülbül değildir öten;
Bu rüzgâr başka rüzgâr.

Ne istersiniz benden,
Bilmem ki hâtıralar,
Gelir gelmez sonbahar?

花粉症は、花粉が鼻や目から入って、くしゃみが出たり目がかゆくなったりする病気です。
東京都は、2月15日から杉の花粉が飛んでいることがわかったと言いました。去年より9日、遅くなっています。
今年、東京都では去年の1.5倍ぐらい多く杉の花粉が飛びそうです。そして3月の中ごろにいちばん多く飛びそうです。東京都のウェブサイトやツイッターで、どのくらい花粉が飛んでいるか見ることができます。
専門の医者は「新型コロナウイルスになった人が花粉症になると、くしゃみでウイルスを広げてしまうことがあります。くしゃみをするときはマスクの上からハンカチで鼻や口をおおうようにしてください」と言っています。
＜ニュースについてのコメント＞
私は花粉症になったことがありません。毎年、春になると、「今年は花粉症になるんじゃないか」と心配になります。日本ではたくさんの人が花粉症に悩んでいます。コロナがおわって、マスクをつけなくてよくなっても、花粉症のためにマスクをつける人が増えるかもしれませんね。

＜VOCABULARY＞
花粉症：かふんしょう　Hay fever
鼻：はな　nose
くしゃみ：sneeze
かゆくなる：get itchy
杉：すぎ　ceder
病気：びょうき　illness disease

Yuca-talk

Paseo de Montejo y los interrogativos

In todays episode we discuss anger and methods to overcome it in our daily life.

Let's have a chat (Discussions In English) 

Episode 21 : Are you an angry person? 

Oh man, it's a real trip how some folks think they're all high and mighty in English just 'cause they've crammed a bunch of fancy words. But let me tell ya, knowing a bunch of bombastic vocabulary doesn't automatically make you advanced. It's like putting on a flashy outfit but not knowing how to dance, right? Instead of getting all hung up on being "advanced," it's way more crucial to be well-spoken and really nail the level you're at. Master that foundation, and then build on it. That's where the real growth happens, my friend.

LEARN BY LISTENING

You're NOT As Advanced As You Think!

Imagine this situation: you are talking about a date you had last week with your Chinese friends and you want to describe your date’s appearance a bit. How do you do that? Tā hěn piàoliang/tā hěn shuài? What else can you say? ‘Damn it I wish I knew more ways to do that…’ Before you get frustrated in your imaginary scene, take a deep breath and press the ‘play’ button of this episode. We have you covered. Let’s go. :)

Note: This podcast is intended for language learning ONLY. Not for promoting or criticizing any political party or ideology. Let’s keep it friendly and accessible to all :)

Also, all of the experiences are the hosts’ own experiences so please do your own research if you need more information.
