Marcus’s Adventure: A New City and Old Friends

Hi :D

I forgot to upload this yesterday. I hope your day (Wednesday) is off to a great start.

As an English language learner, you are probably bombarded with content from all of the popular social media platforms. 

Some good and some questionable. 

In this short podcast, I will tell you one thing to look out for.

Good luck!

"Simple" English is Not "bad" English

Ciao, buongiorno, buon lunedì primo giorno di luglio.
Non volevo fare il podcast questa settimana, ma poi non ho resistito.
E semplicemente ho inziato a parlare.
E questo è il risultato.
Non c’è la trascrizione.
Non ci sono esercizi.
Per un momento mi sono sentita una speaker radiofonica.
Ma ci sono delle espressioni carine - “NON FATE I VAGHI”.
E la nuova parola è NEGHITTAGGINE.
Vi abbraccio virtualmente tutti e so che festeggerete un po’ con me.

I based some of my ideas on "Tower Of Babble: Nonnative Speakers Navigate The World Of 'Good' And 'Bad' English" on NPR (the news company).  

The Inside Scoop on English

Uncomfortable Comes with Learning

Último episodio de la trilogía de los gauchos. En este les contaré sobre el libro El guacho Martin Fierro de Oscar Fariña y su vínculo con El gaucho Martin Fierro de José Hernández. También leeré algunos de sus versos para que puedan conocer esta llamativa obra.
En este episodio se retoman temas charlados previamente en "Cumbia argentina" y por supuesto en las dos primeras partes: "Los gauchos: ¿realidad o ficción?" y "El Martin Fierro"
