Chinese Mandarin Teacher Sherry

Apa kabar semua? 
Tinggal beberapa hari sebelum akhir tahun 2023! Sangat cepat, bukan? 
Bagi kalian, tahun ini tahun seperti apa? Untuk saya, tahun ini adalah tahun yang penuh dengan perjalanan. Saya pergi ke banyak tempat dan dapat banyak pengalaman baru. Bagaimana dengan kalian?

Salah seorang teman saya bilang, di tahun 2023 ini dia kurang berhati-hati dan banyak menyesal. Menyesal adalah "regret" di Bahasa Inggris, dan di Bahasa Jepang adalah 後悔する。"Jadi di tahun 2024, harus sedia payung sebelum hujan!" katanya. 

Kalian mengerti artinya? siapkan payung sebelum terkena hujan. Artinya, lebih baik siapkan hal ini dan itu daripada nanti menyesal. Apa kalian juga orang yang selalu siapkan banyak hal sebelum masalah terjadi? Kalau saya, tergantung kondisi ya… kadang-kadang melakukan hal spontan dan tidak siapkan apa pun itu juga bagus, hanya ikut situasi atau kondisi yang mungkin terjadi. Yaa, hidup hanya satu kali, ayo kita menikmati dengan cara terbaik menurut kita.

Terima kasih banyak untuk para pendengar podcast saya ini, dan juga untuk murid-murid hebat saya di Italki. Kalian sudah memberi saya banyak inspirasi dan motivasi!! 
Selamat menyambut tahun baru! Selamat berlibur dan sampai jumpa tahun depan! 
Happy New Year!  ^^

Dar gato por liebre

Sai riconoscere un dittongo o un trittongo? O quando due vocali si pronunciano separatamente formando uno iato? In questo episodio ti guiderò attraverso questi elementi fondamentali della pronuncia italiana con esempi chiari e semplici:
	•	Dittonghi (due vocali nella stessa sillaba): ieri /ˈjɛri/, uomo /ˈwɔmo/.
	•	Trittonghi (tre vocali nella stessa sillaba): miei /ˈmjɛi/, guai /ˈgwai/.
	•	Iato (vocali pronunciate separatamente): Maria /maˈri.a/, paura /paˈu.ra/.

In più, parleremo di:
	•	Le consonanti doppie (pala vs. palla).
	•	L’accento nella lingua italiana.
	•	L’uso delle maiuscole e dell’apostrofo.

👂 Questo episodio è pensato per chi vuole migliorare la propria pronuncia e conoscere le regole che rendono l’italiano una lingua unica.
