#3: Three Ways To Improve Your Confidence (Spanish)

Hi havia una vegada, un nen que era venedor de gorres i volia vendre les seves gorres al mercat d’un poble proper. El dia que es celebrava el mercat, va travessar el bosc amb una cistella penjant del braç plena de gorres vermelles. Després d’una estona caminant es va notar molt cansat per culpa de la calor. Va decidir tombar-se sota un arbre molt gran. Va deixar la seva cistella a terra i es va adormir. A l’arbre hi vivien dos micos que van baixar i van agafar-li totes les gorres que  portava a la cistella. Quan ja les tenien totes, van tornar a enfilar-se a l’arbre. Quan el venedor de gorres es va despertar, es va sorprendre en veure la seva cistella buida. Va buscar les seves gorres per tot arreu, sota de la roques, a les branques dels arbres, però no les trobava per enlloc. Després de molt buscar, va descobrir que els micos que vivien a l’arbre les portaven posades. En veure els micos amb les seves gorres, es va enfadar molt i va començar a cridar i insultar-los: “lladres, brètols, torneu-me les meves gorres”, però lluny de cedir, els micos no podien parar de riure veient al venedor tan vermell i enfadat. Després de pensar una estona, els va explicar amablement als micos perquè necessitava tant les seves gorres, i els va prometre que si li tornaven totes, els regalaria una com a agraïment. Llavors, els micos, sabent que les gorres eren tan importants per al venedor, les van retornar. El venedor els va regalar una, tal i com havia promès.

 Witajcie w trzecim odcinku mojego podcastu o Polsce, polskiej kulturze i języku polskim. Dowiecie się z niego o występującym jedynie na terytorium Polski kamieniu ozdobnym - krzemieniu pasiastym. 

POLish your language

Polski diament - krzemień pasiasty

The verb 离 indicates the distance between two points. 
It often occurs before adjectives like 远（yuǎn） and 近（jìn）. 

ān nà jiā lí shū diàn hěn yuǎn 。 
安娜家离书店很远。Anna's house is far from the bookstore.

ān nà jiā lí ɡōnɡ sī hěn jìn 。 
安娜家离公司很近。Anna's house is very close to the office.

Sometimes it takes the verb-object phrase 有(yǒu)……米(mǐ) to indicate the exact distance.

wǒ jiā lí xué xiào yǒu 400 mǐ 。 
我家离学校有400米。My home is 400 meters away from my school.

wǒ jiā lí chāo shì yǒu 500 mǐ 。
