Episode #37 - How do you spend your summer?

Диктант - это не самая любимая часть занятий по русскому языку у школьников, но очень полезная. Так что давайте учиться понимать русский и грамотно его записывать!

Система будет такая. Я прочитаю текст два раза: в первый раз медленно, по несколько слов (ставьте эпизод на паузу, чтобы всё успеть), второй раз - быстрее, чтобы вы проверили, всё ли правильно записали.

Отправьте мне сообщение, как только закончите диктант, и я пришлю вам его текст для сверки. 

Первый текст - цитата Вячеслава Полунина о счастье. Очень рекомендую посмотреть его ted-talk “Счастье дурака”.

Там встречается два сложных слова - “дзынькает” и “на полную катушку”.
Удачного диктанта!

이번 등산은 정말 힘들었어.
这次爬山挺累的。

누가 아니래. 게다가 소나기까지 내렸으니까.
谁说不是呢。再加上下了一场雷阵雨。 

다행히 산중턱에 갔을 때 비가 멈췄지.
幸亏爬到半山腰的时候, 雨停了。

그러게 말이야! 우리 기념사진 찍고 다시 내려가자. 就是啊! 我们拍张纪念照再下去吧。 

등산 爬山
