IELTS Speaking myths. We'll 'de-myth' two together!

What is a myth anyway? A myth, a symbolic narrative, usually of unknown origin and at least partly traditional, that is especially associated with religious belief.

Where do myths come from?  Generally speaking a myth is a folklore genre consisting of narratives that play a fundamental role in a society, such as foundational tales or origin myths.

Myths also come from 'imagining' what took place and forming an idea of it and then sharing it with others as if it actually took place.

Of course it takes place in language learning and in IELTS speaking test.

We'll look into 2 myths students generally think about when it comes to IELTS speaking tests, they are:

Myth 1 -  I have to agree with my examiner’s opinion (if I don't ... )
Myth 2 -  My speaking duration was only 9 minutes long (instead of 11-14). (If it is to occur I ...)

You can finish the rest.

Do you have these kinds of thoughts running through your mind? Generally students say yes, you can be an exception but listen to the podcast just to see what not to do. It's highly recommended.

Enjoy your process and I'd love to have an opportunity to assist the development of your spoken English in IELTS speaking or a job interview preparation instead of teaching you the rulles, grammar etc.

See you in my classes.

Cliente: Buongiorno, sto cercando un paio di scarpe nuove per andare in palestra. Avete qualcosa?
      
Commesso: Certo, signora. Abbiamo una vasta selezione di scarpe sportive. Di che numero ha bisogno?

Cliente: Ho bisogno del numero 37.

Commesso: Ottima scelta! Abbiamo alcune scarpe da ginnastica molto comode con ammortizzazione. Le mostro alcuni modelli.

Cliente: Mi piacciono queste scarpe bianche con i dettagli rosa. Sembrano davvero comode.

Commesso: Sono molto popolari e offrono un ottimo supporto.

こんにちは！Atsushiです。
前回、92のPodcastでは、粉もんの話をしました。
ですので、食べ物シリーズでいきます。

今日はトンカツについて。
みなさんはトンカツ、知っていますか？

豚カツ（とんかつ）は、厚みのある豚のロースやヒレのスライス肉を、小麦粉・溶き卵・パン粉をまとわせて油で揚げた料理のことをいいます。

「とんかつ」・「とんカツ」・「トンカツ」・「豚カツ」などいろいろな表記がありますね。「カツ」とだけ書かれることもある。※カツはカツレツの略です。
豚カツという名前の由来は、“豚”の音読みの「トン」と、フランス料理の"côtelettes"（コートレットの英語読みであるカットレット cutlet）の組み合わせからきています。

「とんかつ専門店」は、ごはん・味噌汁をセットにして「とんかつ」を提供していることが多いです。カツ丼と言って、ご飯の上にのせて出す店もあります。

とんかつには、とんかつソース、ゴマ（すり鉢ですり、ソースに混ぜ、それにつけて食べる店もある）をつけて食べることが多いです。

店や地域によっては、とんかつソースではなくデミグラスソースをかけて供するなど、洋食スタイルのものもあります。

豚かつに添えられることの多い生キャベツの千切りは、消化吸収を助けます。おかわりができる店も多いです。

おかわりは、追加できる、ということですね。
キャベツ、ご飯、味噌汁がおかわりできる店が多いです。

日本のおもしろい食べ物の一つなので、日本に来た時はぜひ試してくださいね！

ということで、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！
