CHINESE STORY中文故事

丑小鸭

En este episodio hablamos de una rana que era capaz de hacer lo que fuera por ser auténtica, no le basto con su opinión si no que fue en busca de la aceptación de otros.
Lamentablemente no le fue muy bien ya que al final no pudo complacer ni a los demás ni a ella misma.
Aprendemos en esta pequeña historia lo importante de amarnos a nosotros mismos y aceptarnos tal cual somos.


Hablemos de Fábulas 

La rana que quería ser una rana auténtica.

Teacher Stan's musings

Wasted days

Hey English learners! In this episode of "The Smithing English Podcast with Teacher Smith" we're diving headfirst into the wild realm of phrasal verbs centered around the word "take." Ever stop and wonder how this one word can morph into a bunch of meanings when you add a little twist to it? Seriously, how many shades can we squeeze out of the simple act of "taking"? Join us as we unravel the mysteries, have some fun, and figure out just how far "take" can actually go! Ready for the ride?

LEARN BY LISTENING

Phrasal verb- TAKE

Have you ever heard the phrase, "When in Rome, do as the Romans do"?

It means you should follow the customs of the place you're visiting or the people you're with. So in Japan, for example, you should take off your shoes before entering someone's home, because it's the custom.

However, people often shorten this phrase to just, "When in Rome."

Phrases like this, where part of the sentence is not spoken but the meaning is still clear, are called "anapodotons" ("an-uh-PAW-duh-tuns"). People don't say the second part of the phrase, but everyone knows what they mean.

But why do people leave phrases unfinished?

According to Instagram linguist Adam Aleksic, it's because we like to save time and effort when talking. By saying less, we can still share the full idea, as long as others know the rest of the phrase.

Anapodotons are very common in English. Let's look at some more now!

"Speak of the devil" is something people say when someone appears just as you were talking about them. The full phrase is, "Speak of the devil, and he shall appear." But it doesn't mean you think the person who appeared is a bad person!

"It takes a village" is another example. The full phrase, "It takes a village to raise a child," means raising children is easier with help from others. It can also be used to talk about teamwork or group tasks.

"If you can't stand the heat" comes from, "If you can't stand the heat, get out of the kitchen." This means if something is difficult or stressful, you should either deal with it or stop complaining and leave!

Anapodotons may be short, but they have a lot of meaning!
