Episode 1: how to say Mum and Dad in Hebrew 

In this episode, we talk about the pleasure we get from hearing stories, and I share with you a beautiful tale about the joy that comes from helping others. Listen now, and then read the (shortened) transcript below to check your understanding.

This story takes place in a hospital, many years ago. And there was a room where there were two men, both seriously ill. One of those men was allowed to sit up in his bed for an hour a day to drain the fluids from his lungs. His bed was next to the room's only window. The other man had to spend of all his time lying flat on his back. He couldn’t see anything, except the ceiling.

The men talked for hours on end. They spoke about their wives and families, their homes, their jobs, where they’d been on vacation, and the things they’d learned in their lives. And every afternoon, when the man in the bed next to the window, could sit up, he would pass the time by describing to his roommate all the wonderful things he could see outside the window.

The man in the other bed would live for those one-hour periods when his world would be broadened and enlivened by all the activity and the colour of the outside world. The window overlooked a park with a lovely lake, the man had said. Ducks and swans played on the water while children sailed their model boats. Lovers walked arm in arm amid flowers of every colour of the rainbow. Grand old trees graced the landscape, and a fine view of the city skyline could be seen in the distance. As the man by the window described all of this in exquisite detail, the man on the other side of the room would close his eyes and imagine the picturesque scene..........

Today we are going to learn how to say hello in Chinese. You will definitely find this in all Chinese textbooks. Hello in Chinese is 你好 nǐ hǎo. 你 means you，好means good，so 你好together also means wish you well, which shows our sincere and best wishes to people we meet. 

In everyday life, we use this expression to greet people, but usually to someone who is not our close friend or family member. You can use 你好 nǐ hǎo to greet your co-workers, someone you have just met. 

rú ɡuǒ nǐ jiàn dào le nǐ de hǎo pénɡ you ， nǐ duì tā shuō nǐ hǎo ， tā huì jué dé yóu diǎn qí ɡuài 
如 果      你 见   到  了 你 的 好  朋   友  ，            你 对  他 说   你 好  ，   他 会  觉  得 有  点   奇 怪   。 
It would sound a bit strange if you met and greeted your close friend with "你好 nǐ hǎo".

こんばんは！
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。

前回言い忘れていましたが、このPodcastが200回を超えました！👏

みなさんが聞いてくれているおかげです。
本当にありがとうございます。

毎日録れない時もありますが、これからもできるだけ毎日録ろうと思っています。

言語学習は毎日続けることが大切ですね。
少しやらないと、すぐに力が落ちるような気がします。

ぼくも英語を毎日学習しています。最近はドイツ語も少ししています。YouTubeやDuolingo などを使って勉強しています。もちろん、Podcastも聴いています。

最近は、
聴きながら声に出すことや、
たくさん問題を解くこと、まちがえること
そういったことが、記憶に残りやすいなと感じています。

自分で実験している感じですね。

このPodcastも実験です。
このPodcastで、少しでも日本語が聞き取れるようになった！とか話せるようになった！とかあれば教えてくださいね。

ぼくのPodcastが日本語学習者のみなさんにとって、役に立てていたら嬉しいです。


ということで、簡単ですが、200回のお礼のPodcastでした。

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！

Decreased Productivity: Employees who are not adequately trained may struggle to complete tasks efficiently, leading to lower productivity and missed deadlines.

Increased Errors and Mistakes: Insufficient training can result in errors and mistakes that can negatively impact quality, customer satisfaction, and the organization's reputation.

Lower Morale and Engagement: Employees who feel underprepared may experience frustration and decreased job satisfaction, leading to higher turnover rates and lower employee engagement.

Slower Onboarding: New hires may take longer to become productive if they lack adequate training, which can increase costs and reduce efficiency.

Addressing the Training Gap

To mitigate the negative consequences of insufficient training, organizations must prioritize ongoing learning and development initiatives. This includes:

Needs Assessments: Regularly conducting comprehensive assessments to identify training gaps and ensure that training programs are targeted and relevant.
Tailored Training Programs: Developing customized training programs that address specific needs and learning styles, leveraging a variety of delivery methods such as online courses, workshops, and in-person training.
Continuous Learning: Encouraging employees to participate in ongoing learning and development opportunities, such as online courses, conferences, and professional certifications.
Mentorship and Coaching: Pairing employees with experienced mentors or coaches to provide guidance, support, and opportunities for skill development.
Performance Reviews: Using performance reviews to identify training needs, provide feedback, and recognize employee achievements.
