How to say "You're a closed box!" in Japanese. (From Black Mirror)

En este episodio te enseñaré expresiones coloquiales con el verbo "morir" como "me muero de ganas por conocerte", "estoy muerta de calor" ... 
Los españoles utilizamos mucho lenguaje coloquial y puede resultar difícil entendernos cuando usamos algunas palabras fuera del contexto habitual y con un significado totalmente diferente.
También, me gustaría que aprendieras un poco sobre el tono y la melodía que usamos junto con las palabras.
Si quieres la transcripción del episodio puedes escribirme y te la enviaré. ¡Muchas gracias por escuchar español!

おはようございます。日本語だんだんポットキャストのゆかりです。

私は最近(さいきん)YouTubeの動画(どうが)をつくっています。

いま、日本ではなくて、トルコに住んでいます。

トルコの生活についての、動画をつくっています。

動画をつくることを、
"動画編集"(どうがへんしゅう)といいます。

動画編集には、時間がかかります。

そうですね、いまは1つの動画をつくるために、5時間以上かかります。

いや、もっとかかっているかもしれません。

でも、はじめたばかりのころは、もっと時間がかかっていました。

少しずつですが、だんだん、上手になってきました。
時間も短くなってきました。

なんでもそうですが、はじめたばかりのころは、時間がかかりますね。

そして、たくさんミスもします。

でも、そうやって、少しずつ上手くなっていけると、信じて続けています。

日本語も同じですね。

はじめたばかりときは、単語しかわかりません。

そして、少しずつ聞くことができるようになりますね。

今日勉強しても、明日すぐに上手になりません。
でも、少しずつ、成長しているはずです。

では、今日も最後まで聞いてくれて、だんだん、です。

また明日！

Improving English Comprehension: Tips for Understanding Native Speakers

Negotiation and Change Management: Navigating the Corporate Seas

In the ever-evolving landscape of business, the ability to negotiate and manage change is akin to navigating treacherous seas. Successful captains of industry understand that these skills are not just necessary; they are the rudder that steers the corporate ship through both calm and stormy waters.

The Art of Negotiation

Negotiation is the subtle art of reaching an agreement that benefits all parties involved. It’s a dance of communication, where each step is carefully calculated to achieve a harmonious outcome. For managers, negotiation skills are indispensable. They are the tools that help forge strong stakeholder relationships, drive business objectives, and resolve conflicts that could otherwise fester into costly disputes.

Change Management: The Compass of Progress

Change management, on the other hand, is the compass that guides a company towards progress. It involves preparing, supporting, and helping individuals, teams, and organizations in making organizational change. Leaders who excel in change management not only anticipate the shifts in their industry but also create the strategies that will enable their teams to adapt swiftly and efficiently.

Combining Forces for Success

When negotiation and change management converge, they create a powerful synergy. Negotiation skills allow managers to involve key stakeholders in the change process, increasing buy-in and reducing resistance. Meanwhile, change management provides the framework for implementing the negotiated agreements, ensuring that the change is not just accepted but embraced.


As we sail into the future, the waters of business will only get more challenging. But with robust negotiation and change management skills, managers can not only weather the storms but also harness the winds of change to propel their organizations to new heights. It’s time to set sail and navigate the corporate seas with confidence and skill.
