Slow German Podcast for Beginners / Episode 33 Oktoberfest (A1-B1)

Joy to Our World

The food is delicious! 

If you’ve listened to my previous podcasts, you’ll know that want to score a band score 7 in your IELTS Speaking exam, you have to use some less common idiomatic expressions.

We all know the idiom ‘it’s raining cats and dogs’ because this is a common idiom. But what are some less common idioms?

This podcast will give you 3 more idioms for you to learn, which you can use in your IELTS Speaking exam.

Preparing for exams can be a double-edged sword. This is because examiners don’t want you to memorise and repeat your answers from memory. However, using idioms can get you a higher band score. So how do we balance this? Idioms have to be memorised, because they have to be spoken exactly. We cannot change them. For example, you cannot say ‘my parents punched the roof’, you have to say my parents ‘hit the roof.’

Another tip for using idioms is not to put all your eggs in one basket. Make sure you are armed with a variety of different idioms in your memory bank. If you only know one idiom, for example ‘think outside the box’ you have to hope your part 2 speaking exam is a suitable topic for the idiom.

You can, of course, use idioms in parts  1 and 3, but part 2 is the easiest place to slot in a few idioms, because you have 1 minute to prepare.

Don’t forget to book a lesson with me, so you can practise using idioms, and get the band score you are aiming for.

こんばんは！Atsushiです。
今日も大阪から撮っています。
今日も大阪は暑そうです。

みなさんは、万博(ばんぱく)という言葉を、聞いたことがありますか？正式には、国際博覧会(こくさいはくらんかい)、万国博覧会(ばんこくはくらんかい)です。

英語だとUniversal Expositionと言うそうです。
日本ではEXPO、としか聞くことしかないので、この英語での言い方ははじめてしりました。


次のEXPOは、2025年に大阪で開催(かいさい)されます。
そして、この万博で使われるキャラクターが公募の中から決まりました。

今年3月にキャラクターが決まりました。
そして、先日には、愛称(あいしょう)も決まりました。

愛称はミャクミャクです。
(もしよければ、大阪万博、ミャクミャクなどと検索してみてください。絵を見ながら聞いた方がわかりやすいと思います)

先に形の説明をします。

細胞と水がひとつになったことで生まれた、ふしぎな生き物。その正体は不明だそうです。
 赤い部分は「細胞」で、分かれたり、増えたりします。 また、青い部分は「清い水」で、流れる様に形を変えることができます。
 今の姿は、なりたい自分を探して、いろんな形に姿を変えているようで、人間をまねた姿、だそうです。


そして、決まった名前は、ミャクミャクです。

日本では、長い期間、文化や歴史、思想などを受け継いでいくことを、"脈々"と受け継ぐ、などと表現します。

私たち人間のDNA、知恵と技術、歴史や文化。
変幻自在なキャラクターは更にあらゆる可能性をその身に宿して、私たち人間の素晴らしさをこれからも「脈々」と未来に受け継いでいってほしい。
 そんな希望を込めて「脈々＝ミャクミャク」と名付けました。
 またミャク＝脈であり、生命そのもの。ミャクミャクという2音が続く様は、血液が流れ、命が続いている音でもあります。


キャラクターだけを見ると、変な形をしていますので、はじめは少しおどろきます。でも、何度か見るとこれはこれで、クセになる、変に気になる、記憶に残るキャラクターです。

みなさんもよかったら1度、ネットで探してみてください。

今日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！
