Halo semua! Selamat pagi, siang, sore dan malam! Bagaimana akhir minggu kalian? 

Hari Sabtu, Saya punya rencana bertemu sama teman saya. Tapi tiba-tiba dia bilang mungkin dia masuk angin. Di Bahasa Inggris, “masuk angin” adalah “catch a cold”, dan di Bahasa Jepang adalah 風邪を引く. Jadi, Saya pergi sendiri ke toko buku dan cuci mata.
Saya tahu teman saya ini adalah orang yang angin-anginan. “Orang yang angin-anginan” adalah orang yang tidak konsisten dengan perasaannya. Di Bahasa Inggris artinya “moody person”, di Bahasa Jepang artinya “気分屋”. Contohnya, Hari ini teman kamu bilang “ok”, besok dia bilang “tidak ok”. Hari ini dia bilang “suka”, besok dia bilang “tidak suka”. Kalian punya teman yang angin-anginan? Ok, sampai di sini ya. Hari ini kita belajar ekspresi dengan kata “angin”. Menarik kan! Selamat beraktivitas ya!

L’etimologia del termine “Carnevale” deriva, con molta probabilità, dal latino “carnem levare” (eliminare la carne). Anticamente infatti l’espressione indicava il banchetto dell’ultimo giorno subito prima della Quaresima cristiana. 

The etymology of the term "Carnival" is most likely derived from the Latin word "carnem levare" (to eliminate the flesh). In fact, in ancient times the expression indicated the banquet on the last day immediately before Christian Lent.

Ballo in maschera means Masked Ball: è una festa in maschera dove le persone indossano costumi elaborati e ballano insieme nel periodo del Carnevale.

Frittelle Veneziane are typical sweets from Venice: sono dolci tipici del Carnevale di Venezia, fatti di pasta lievitata fritta e zucchero a velo.

Quaresima means Lent: è un periodo di 40 giorni prima di Pasqua, durante il quale i cristiani si preparano per la festa attraverso la preghiera e il digiuno.
