はい、こんにちは。今回はポッドキャストのシーズン２の9回目です。もうすぐ桜の季節なので、日本に旅行を計画している生徒さんが多いです。去年も一昨年もコロナウイルスで、たくさんの有名な観光地が、お花見のために集まることを禁止していました。なので、今年のお花見は混雑するかもしれません。私の近所の公園にも桜が咲いています。これについては、去年の４月に録音したシーズン１の20回目でお話ししました。よかったら聞いてみてください。

Hello, This is episode 9 of season 2 of my podcast.  It will soon be cherry blossom season and many students are planning a trip to Japan. Last year and the year before, due to the coronavirus, many famous tourist attractions banned people from getting together for cherry blossom viewing. So this year’s cherry blossom viewing may be crowded. Cherry blossoms are also blooming in my neighbourhood park. I talked about this in the 20th episode of season 1, recorded last April. If you have time, please take a listen.

先週私は体調を崩しました。木曜日から目眩と動悸がして、週末にはもっとひどくなりました。日曜日の最初のレッスンが終わった後、すぐに病院に行くことにしました。私がいつも行っている歯医者の近くに、日曜日でも開いている内科の病院がありました。そこでCTI検査をして、原因を調べました。CTI検査では、体の中の写真を撮ります。検査では、胃が３倍ぐらいの大きさに膨らんで、他の内臓を圧迫していることが分かりました。お医者さんは「十二指腸の動きが弱くなっている」と説明してくれました。

Last week I fell ill. I started feeling dizzy and having palpitations on Thursday and it got worse over the weekend. I decided to go to the hospital immediately after my first lesson on Sunday. Near my regular dentist there was a medical hospital that was open on Sundays. There I had a CTI test to find out what was causing the problem; in a CTI test, pictures are taken of the inside of your body. The examination showed that my stomach had swelled to about three times its size and was pressing on my other internal organs. The doctor explained that the duodenum (the part that connects the stomach to the intestines) was weakening.

病院でもらった薬を飲んだら、症状は治りました。月曜日にもう一度検査をして、そのあと本屋に行って、社会学の本を３冊買いました。最近、Shrinkflationという英語の単語を知りました。日本語では同じ現象を「ステルス値下げ」と呼びます。「ステルス」は戦闘機の名前から取っています。「ステルス値下げ」は、消費者に気づかれないように原価を下げることです。たとえば、パッケージの大きさは変えずに、中のお菓子のサイズだけを小さくして、今までと同じ値段で売ります。

Lesson 5 text 3

Three Russian tongue twisters specifically designed to make your pronunciation clearer! 
Try repeating after me. First time I’m reading slowly, second time closer to real speech speed.

цАпля чАхла, цАпля сОхла, цАпля вЫсохла и сдОхла. (ц,х)

в нЕдрах тУндры вЫдры в гЕтрах тЫрят в вЁдра Ядра кЕдров. вЫдрав с вЫдры в тУндре гЕтры, вЫтру вЫдрой Ядра кЕдра, вЫтру гЕтрой вЫдре мОрду – Ядра в вЁдра, вЫдру в тУндру. (т,д,р)

шла сАша по шоссЕ, неслА сУшку на шестЕ и сосАла сУшку. (ш,с)

Good luck, and please focus on accuracy rather than speed :)

Russian tongue twisters - part 6

In this episode we are going to learn 【Hobby 】in Chinese. 
--------------------------------------------------
As a beginner, there're some vocabularies that you didn't learn before, and native speaker's speed seems too fast to understand. But don't worry, let's do it step by step. 
1st time: listen and catch the words you know already, have a guess about the content.
2nd time: look at the text to check if you guessed it right. 
3rd time: listen one more time, repeat after it.
4th time: practice until you can speak as the normal speed without looking at the text.
