Benvenuti a un nuovo episodio di "Italiano Chiaro," il podcast dedicato alla bellezza e alla ricchezza della lingua e della cultura italiane. Oggi ci immergeremo in un mondo di cinema, arte e bellezza senza tempo mentre esploriamo il Festival del Cinema di Venezia, uno degli eventi cinematografici più prestigiosi al mondo.

In questo episodio, ci addentreremo nelle profonde radici storiche di questo festival, scoprendo come ha iniziato la sua straordinaria avventura nel 1932 e come è diventato il festival cinematografico più antico al mondo.

Portuguese/English false friends (5)

L'argomento di questo secondo podcast riguarda invece la pronuncia corretta delle doppie. Anche in questo caso si rischia un fraintendimento del significato.

Ascolta in italiano

L'importanza di pronunciare le doppie

Man 1: Several years ago, I was in a car accident that left me with a back injury. As a computer programmer, I am still able to do my job, but I often have to take painkillers. When the pain gets particularly bad, I sometimes have to lie down on my back for a while until it goes away because sitting up really hurts. When we were in the office, I would worry that my colleagues would see me taking pills. Since we’ve been working from home, it has been much better. I can go and see my physical therapist more often too. I don’t have to worry as much and if I need to lie down for a little while to help my back, I can. When we were in the office, I’d sometimes be in a lot of pain but didn’t feel like I could say anything.

Woman: I have suffered from depression for a long time. Most of the time I manage it, but I often feel very nervous. Working in an office was really hard as I was always scared that I might panic and my colleagues would wonder why I was acting strangely. Working at home has been so much better for me as I don’t have to talk to so many people and I can have a relaxed environment and play peaceful music. Management is talking about going back to the office soon and I can already feel a lot of anxiety about it. I’m worried that I will not be able to hide that I’m depressed and people will judge me.

Man 2: I’m quite deaf in one ear. I don’t like to mention it when I’m at work because I feel as though there is often a stigma around disabilities. I worry that people will treat me differently. The problem is, sometimes I don’t hear when people are talking to me and then they think I’m ignoring them or I’m not listening. Working at home has been great for me because all of our communication has been online or video calls and I can wear headphones like everyone else. I’m not looking forward to going back to the office and I don’t see the point as I can do my job perfectly well from home.

Script

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。

きのうは、コンビニの袋(ふくろ)の話をしました。

袋が有料(ゆうりょう)なのは、コンビニだけではありません。
スーパーやデパートでも、有料です。

でも、日本はトイレは無料ですね。

無料(むりょう)‥つまり、お金をはらわくていいです。
０円です！

トイレが無料なのはうれしいです。

そういえば、コンビニにもトイレがあります。

コンビニで、トイレに行きたいときは、

"トイレをかりてもいいですか？"

とききます。

"すみません、トイレをかりてもいいですか？"

"はい、どうぞ。"

といいます。

トイレをかりてもいいですか？のほかには、

"トイレをつかってもいいですか？"

"トイレをかしてください"

といいます。

「トイレに行ってもいいですか？」
は言いません。

これは、学校で先生に
「トイレにいってもいいですか？」と、

ききますね。

私はコンビニでトイレをかりるとき、
お水やガムなど、何かを買うことにしています。

もちろん、買わなくても大丈夫です。

私の気持ちです。

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！
