#47 年轻人正选择“友情婚” ft. 科科

Welcome to this episode of Everyday Italian! In this episode, we’re focusing on essential phrases you can use when you need someone to repeat what they said or explain something better.

Learning Italian can sometimes be challenging, and it’s completely normal not to understand everything in a conversation. Being able to ask for clarification will boost your confidence and help you engage more fully in your interactions.

In this episode, we’ll cover:

	•	Come? (What?)
	•	Puoi ripetere, per favore? (Can you repeat that, please?)
	•	Non ho capito. (I didn’t understand.)
	•	Cosa significa? (What does that mean?)
	•	Puoi parlare più lentamente, per favore? (Can you speak more slowly, please?)

These phrases are practical and easy to use, ensuring you can communicate effectively while learning. Remember, asking for clarification is a natural part of the language learning process!

한국의 패션

한국의 패션은 전통과 현대가 어우러진 독특한 매력을 가지고 있습니다. 패션 전문가로서 지난 수십 년간 한국 패션의 변화를 직접 목격해 왔습니다. 한국은 오랜 역사 속에서 형성된 전통 의상인 한복을 바탕으로, 현대적인 감각을 더한 새로운 스타일을 창조해냈습니다.

서울패션위크와 같은 국제 패션 행사에서 한국 디자이너들은 혁신적인 디자인과 섬세한 디테일로 주목받고 있습니다. 제가 직접 참여했던 여러 패션쇼에서는 젊은 디자이너들이 실험적인 아이디어를 선보이며 전 세계 패션 트렌드에 영향을 주는 모습을 볼 수 있었습니다. 특히, K-pop 아이돌들이 입는 의상과 스트리트 패션은 빠르게 변화하는 트렌드를 대중에게 전달하는 중요한 역할을 하고 있습니다.

한편, 전통과 현대의 조화는 한복의 재해석에서 가장 뚜렷하게 나타납니다. 한복은 오랜 역사와 문화를 담고 있지만, 현대 디자이너들은 이를 현대적 디자인과 융합하여 새로운 패션 아이템으로 재탄생시키고 있습니다. 이러한 노력은 전통에 대한 자부심과 함께, 글로벌 시장에서의 경쟁력을 높이는 중요한 요소로 작용하고 있습니다.

또한, 최근 한국 패션 산업은 지속 가능한 패션에도 큰 관심을 기울이고 있습니다. 친환경 소재의 사용과 윤리적 생산 방식은 소비자들의 관심이 높아짐에 따라 점차 확대되고 있으며, 이는 한국 패션의 미래를 밝게 하는 중요한 변화라고 할 수 있습니다.

저의 경험에 비추어 볼 때, 한국 패션은 단순히 옷을 입는 방식을 넘어서 문화와 예술, 그리고 사회적 가치가 어우러진 종합 예술이라고 할 수 있습니다. 앞으로도 한국 패션은 전통과 혁신, 그리고 지속 가능성을 기반으로 세계 무대에서 그 위상을 계속해서 높여갈 것입니다.

In this story, an elephant named Eleven does whatever it takes to maintain peace, even using violence. This is Part 4 of 5. 

As Eleven watched the thieves creep forward, he considered what course of action to take. He could tell the monkeys about the thieves, possibly causing a physical fight to break out. Or he could stop the thieves himself, either scaring them off with his roar or his powerful tusks. Either way, conflict was unavoidable. 

Peace was Eleven’s his highest value. If anything attempted to disrupt it, he made sure to remove it from his life. He saw himself as a protector of peace. It never occurred to him that he might have been actually afraid of healthy conflict.
 
So, believing there to be no ethical dilemma, Eleven decided to conceal the thieves’ robbery. This way the thieves would get what they want, the monkeys would only realize after the fact, and, most importantly, Eleven could get back to his relaxing day in the sun.  

Eleven positioned himself in such a way as to block any view of the robbery. The fox and wild chicken snatched the bananas and made their way for the bushes. However, at that exact moment, one of the monkeys, having climbed up a tree and swung itself into the river, was flying through the air and saw the robbery. 

Splashing into the river, the monkey screamed and shrieked, trying its best to alert the others. But they were too busy slapping each other to notice anything.
 
In an instant, without giving the moment proper reflection, only thinking about his own interests and his self-appointed duty, Eleven forcefully swung his trunk and whacked the shrieking monkey, who flew with great speed into the dense forest and out of sight.
