¿Y que tal antes?

Denunciando un robo en casa 🏠🔍

Oficial: Buenas tardes, señor/a. ¿Cómo puedo ayudarle?

Víctima: Buenas tardes, oficial. Alguien entró a mi casa y robó mis cosas.

Oficial: Lo siento mucho. ¿Cuándo ocurrió el robo?

Víctima: No estoy seguro/a. Salí esta mañana y cuando regresé, la puerta estaba abierta.

Oficial: ¿Nota si falta algo dentro de la casa?

Víctima: Sí, se llevaron mi televisor, mi computadora y algo de dinero en efectivo.

Oficial: ¿Vio a alguien sospechoso cerca de su casa antes de salir?

Víctima: No, pero mi vecino dijo que vio a un hombre merodeando por la zona.

Oficial: ¿Tiene cámaras de seguridad en su casa o en la zona?

Víctima: No en mi casa, pero creo que el edificio de enfrente tiene cámaras.

Oficial: Muy bien, tomaremos su declaración y revisaremos las cámaras de seguridad.

Víctima: ¿Cree que podrán recuperar mis cosas?

Oficial: Haremos todo lo posible. Necesito que haga una lista detallada de los objetos robados.

Víctima: De acuerdo, la haré ahora mismo.

Oficial: También enviaremos una patrulla a la zona para investigar.

Víctima: Gracias, oficial. Espero que puedan encontrar a los responsables.

Mona and I discuss an enigmatic concept known as the American Dream. What does it mean and what doesn't it mean? How do Americans and non-Americans view it differently? In our conversation, we attempt to tease out some answers.

(By the way, my apologies for the poor sound quality in this episode. I'll certainly do my best to fix it for the next episode!)

東北地方の大雨について　Learning the Tohoku dialect

Tonight, hundreds of thousands of snowflakes are floating above a cute village. 

Among these snowflakes there’s one the size of a small pot plant. It’s twirling and spinning like a beautiful ballet dancer. This snowflake’s name is Lola. She has just been joined by her rich green fairy friend named Fairy. 

“Lola, I’m sorry to disturb you right before sleep... But I had to come see you. The wedding date has been moved. We must have it in one week’s time. Do you think the dress will be ready?” 

“One week? Sure thing,” says Lola. “I’ll work on it during the (yawn) weekend. You have nothing to worry about.” 

“Oh Lola, you’re the best! Thank you! Here, let me take you to the ground—you’re tired—I can take you there in a few minutes.” 

Fairy takes Lola in her arms to flies towards the village. But something isn’t right. The wind is becoming stronger and colder. Fairy is trying her best to fly straight, but the wind is pushing her to the left and to the right. The little green light is struggling against the wind.  

A storm is coming.

In this episode we are going to learn 【Chinese food】in Chinese. 
--------------------------------------------------
As a beginner, there're some vocabularies that you didn't learn before, and native speaker's speed seems too fast to understand. But don't worry, let's do it step by step. 
1st time: listen and catch the words you know already, have a guess about the content.
2nd time: look at the text to check if you guessed it right. 
3rd time: listen one more time, repeat after it.
4th time: practice until you can speak as the normal speed without looking at the text.
