I AM YOUR JAPANESE TUTOR

【beginner～intermediate 】2.6 NHK WEB EASY pronunciatuon

Apa kabar semua? Sehat? 
Wah, 3 bulan lagi kita akan sampai di akhir tahun. Yeay! Libur Natal dan Tahun Baru. Saya mau membeli hadiah Natal untuk ayah dan ibu saya. Kemarin, waktu saya mencari barang-barang menarik di internet, saya juga menemukan banyak barang abal-abal. Kalian tahu “barang abal-abal”? Artinya adalah produk kualitas murah, kualitas buruk, bisa juga palsu. “Palsu” di Bahasa Inggris adalah “fake”, di Bahasa Jepang adalah “偽物”. Ada banyak produk abal-abal di mana-mana. Hanya satu kali pakai langsung rusak, langsung tidak berfungsi dengan baik. Lebih baik membeli barang dengan harga sedikit mahal tapi punya kualitas baik daripada barang abal-abal. Ini menurut saya loh…Bagaimana menurut kalian? Ok, sampai jumpa di podcast berikutnya! Dadah!


Akhir minggu

Abal-abal

日本人(にほんじん)の本音(ほんね)Wanna know Japanese honest thoughts?

In this introductory episode, I’ll explain how this podcast will go beyond dictionary definitions and challenge the idea that two words can actually have exactly the same meaning.

I’m your host Emma, an Italki teacher with four years’ experience in editing and teaching writing skills. I’m bringing my passion for the intricacies of the English language to this podcast, where I’ll explain the subtle, pragmatic differences between a pair of synonyms each week. 

This might mean, for example, that one of the two words is more formal than the other, or creates more of a negative meaning, or has specific connotations that mean it’s only suitable for a certain topic, or level, or audience.

So, when you’re writing your next email, chapter, letter, or essay, you can feel confident that you’re choosing the perfect word for the situation.

So, get your magnifying glass and join me on this investigation into vocabularly!

ヒージンさんに筋トレと運動について話してもらいました。

Vol.5 ヒージンさんと　筋トレと運動について

People have been building boats for at least 10,000 years, making them one of the oldest types of transportation. They're a big part of history, which is why there are many expressions about boats.

If you have the same problems or are in the same situation as someone else, you can say you are "in the same boat." This expression comes from the fact that people on the same boat are all affected if the boat gets into trouble while at sea.

For example, if your friend told you they had lost their job, and you had also lost your job, you could say "Looks like we're in the same boat — I lost my job too!"

If a person is doing something too much or in an extreme way, you can say they are "going overboard" with it. This expression comes from the 1600s when boats were mostly made of wooden boards, and going overboard meant falling into the water.

So if your friend kept calling the same company to ask for a job, you could say, "Don't go overboard! If you keep calling them they won't hire you."

If someone misses out on something, especially because they were late or too slow, you can say they have "missed the boat." This expression refers to being late to board a boat that departed at a specific time.

So your friend might say, "I just want to make sure I'm the first person they call when they're hiring. I don't want to miss the boat!"
