Don´t say “YES”! / Не говори слово “ДА”

１２年前の東日本大震災で私が経験したエピソードを話しています。

日本語でおしゃべり　podcast for Japanese learners

＃16 12年前の東日本大震災の話

In this episode for upper-intermediate and advanced English learners, I’ll talk about vocabulary and idioms related to sleep. 

It’s a topic that can come in especially handy if you find yourself engaging in small talk, especially since so many of us are sleep-deprived.

The idioms we’ll cover are:
-hit the hay/hit the sack
-to sleep like a rock/to sleep like a baby
-out like a light
-to catch some Zs
-to sleep on it/to sleep on something

I picked up this movie to celebrate Hangul Day which is every October 9th.
At first glance, he doesn't seem to have much in common with Hangeul Day.
But you are going to realize he is one of the most beautiful writers of Hangul.
His name is “동주” who was a precious light in the darkest days.
He died young, unfortunately. But his works melt the hearts of many people and represent their hearts to this day.
For those who are learning Korean and who are interested in Korean, I highly recommend it!!!😍

Muchas personas piensan que los españoles somos muy religiosos. Y aunque la mayoría de nuestras fiestas están relacionadas con el catolicismo, las cosas han cambiado un poco en los últimos 50 años. En este episodio comento como han cambiado la perspectiva y la actitud de los españoles hacia la Iglesia y la religión en los últimos años. 

Sé que este tema es un poco diferente y puede ser un poco polémico, pero espero que te parezca interesante. Después de escuchar el episodio, como siempre, espero tu opinión. Visita mi Instagram y dime qué te ha parecido.
