In today's podcast, Cambridge David recommends a very good website for improving your listening ability. Elllo.org allows you to listen to speakers from different countries using English, and at the end you can read the script and do practice exercises to help check your understanding. Best of all, it's absolutely free. 
*please note that I'm not paid anything from elllo.org - I'm purely recommending it because I believe in sharing good learning tools, wherever we may find them. What are your favourite language learning tools (apart from italki)? Please let me know, and I'll pass your recommendations onto other listeners.

Trends shift and attention spans dwindle, building trust and credibility is paramount. One often-overlooked factor in achieving this? Consistency in your communication.

Just like a brand with a clear visual identity, your communication style should be instantly recognizable. This doesn't mean being monotonous – it's about establishing a core set of principles that guide your interactions, both internally and externally. In this episode I will be discussing: The Power of Consistency: Communication Gems for Building Trust and Credibility.

By adopting these communication gems, you can cultivate a consistent voice across all your interactions. This consistency fosters trust, builds credibility, and ultimately, creates a strong foundation for sustainable business success. Remember, consistency is a journey, not a destination. Regularly review and refine your communication strategies to ensure they continue to represent your company effectively. When your communication shines with consistent clarity and purpose, you create a powerful connection with your audience, and that's a gem worth treasuring.

Сегодня снова почитаем детскую литературу, а именно - рассказ Леонида Пантелеева “Испанские шапочки” про приключения двух маленьких сестёр, которых зовут Белочка и Тамарочка. Эту серию легко читать тем, кто учит русский язык, благодаря обилию диалогов и простых предложений. Кстати, слова здесь часто употребляются в уменьшительно-ласкательной форме: не платье, а платьице, не шкаф, а шкафчик. 

Слова, которые объясняю в эпизоде: поза́втракать - есть завтрак - to have breakfast; полу́чше - чуть лучше - better, rather; посу́да - всё, что используем для еды: чашки, тарелки, кастрюли и т.д. - dishes, crockery, tableware; убира́ть - to clean up; мыть - очищать от грязи при помощи воды, воды с мылом - to wash, bathe; вытира́ть - убирать влагу - to wipe, mop; шкаф - cupboard; по́лка - shelf; ти́хо - без звука - quietly; блю́дце - маленькая тарелка под чашку или стакан - saucer; раско́кать - уронить и разбить - to unravel; ходи́ть на цы́почках - ходить на кончиках пальцев ног - walking on tiptoe; шёпот - тихая речь, когда говорят без участия голосовых связок - whisper; препира́ться - спорить по пустякам - to spar, altercate; неча́янно - случайно - accidentally, unintentionally; наступи́ть - придавить ногой - to step on, tread on; смо́рщиться - to wrinkle, wince, pucker; ве́жливый - соблюдает правила приличия, учтивый - polite, gentle; воспи́танный - умеет хорошо себя вести - civilized, well-mannered; гляде́ть - смотреть - to look, see; налюбова́ться - сильно любоваться (рассматривать с удовольствием) - to admire; сад - garden; сто́ить - нужно, следует - to be worth, deserve; ма́ло ли что - всё, что угодно - you never know what, anything; пла́тье - dress; споко́йнее - более спокойно - calmly, quietly, peacefully. 

И помните, что чтение по-русски углубляет ваши знания языка! Хороших вам книг, друзья!

Отрывок из рассказа "Испанские шапочки" Л. Пантелеев

Hej, z tej strony Anka, a to jest kolejny odcinek podcastu Polish is fun. Pomyślałam, że fajnie będzie nagrać odcinek z bardziej zaawansowanym słownictwem, dlatego ten podcast jest dostosowany do poziomu A2.

Tomek jest bardzo zapracowany, od poniedziałku do  piątku nic innego  nie robi tylko pracuje.
Na szczęście jego praca jest jego pasją. ....

Miłej nauki! I tak jak zawsze, jeśli chcielibyście tekst i ćwiczenia proszę napiszcie do mnie. 
Do usłyszenia!
