大家好，我是Yuli。欢迎收听我的播客。
今天想和大家分享一些【社交媒体】相关的词。
国外社交媒体平台有:Facebook（脸书）、Instagram（ins）、Twitter（推特）等等。中国用得最多的社交软件有微信（wechat）、微博（MicroBlog）、抖音（Tik-tok）等等。
我们先来看看跟微信有关的词。在中国，几乎每个人都有微信。微信可以用来发信息，发语音（信息），打语音电话，打视频电话。除了一对一聊天，还有很多微信群，家人群，朋友群，工作群。我们还可以用微信来付款，转账，发红包。付款的时候可以你扫商家的二维码，或者商家扫你的付款码。所以买东西的时候经常会听到这样的话：“我扫你，还是你扫我？”转账的金额可以比较高，每天最高可转账20万元。发红包的金额最高是一个200块，一般用在朋友和家人间。例如我朋友生日的时候，我会给他发一个188.88的红包，因为8在中国是一个幸运的数字。
认识一个新朋友的时候，我们一般会加微信。扫对方的二维码就可以添加好友，对方通过后你们就是微信好友了。你可以根据关系把他分组，例如家人，朋友，同事。如果你不想和一个人再聊天了，可以删他(的)微信，甚至是拉黑他。
微信还有一个功能叫朋友圈。我们可以在朋友圈发文字，图片，视频。你的微信好友可以给你点赞，评论。如果你发的朋友圈只想给一部分人看，那就设置分组可见，只有你选择的组可以看到你发的朋友圈。
微信的功能还有很多，公众号可以看文章，视频号可以看视频，小程序可以快速地使用很多常见的手机软件。点外卖，购物，医院挂号等等都可以通过微信。可以说，我们的生活根本离不开微信了。
你用过微信吗？你最喜欢什么功能？留言告诉我吧。我们下期见。

Ep. 6 - 10 Frases MUY Colombianas! | 10 Colombian Expressions

Around the world, "Kiwi" is a popular nickname for New Zealanders, and people from New Zealand will often call themselves "Kiwis" too. For most New Zealanders, the word Kiwi is a positive and friendly nickname — but where did it come from?

The name actually comes from the kiwi: a fluffy bird that has a round body, a long beak and cannot fly. It is only found in New Zealand.

While the bird was already used on New Zealand's stamps and money by the late 19th century, it was first used to represent New Zealand in 1904 — when it was used in a cartoon to represent the country's rugby team. After that, the bird was often shown in cartoons to represent the country.

During World War I, soldiers from New Zealand who were fighting in Europe wore an image of the bird on their uniforms. "Kiwi" became a popular nickname for these soldiers, and it continued to be used after the war.

So the people and the birds don't get mixed up, "Kiwi" as a nickname for New Zealanders is usually written with a capital K, while the bird's name is usually written with a small k: "kiwi."

The kiwi fruit, which is originally from China, is also named after the bird. In 1959, fruit exporters in New Zealand started calling it "kiwifruit" because its fluffy, brown skin looks similar to the fluffy bird.

However, it is important not to mix up Kiwi people, kiwi birds and the kiwi fruit! Although the fruit is usually just called "kiwi" in other parts of the world, New Zealanders only ever call it "kiwifruit."
