쌤통이다

쌤통이다 뭐예요? 
What is 쌤통? 

The word "쌤통" means the feeling of delight in someone's misfortune or failure.

In fact, there is a technical term for this in psychology.
Schadenfreude. 
"Schadenfreude" is a German word that refers to the experience of pleasure or joy that comes from witnessing or learning about others’ misfortune.

"Especially, when someone I am jealous of makes a mistake and stumbles in front of others, I find myself secretly happy."
When you feel this, you can say 쌤통이다. 

But be careful!
it is generally considered a negative emotion so you should not express that emotion inside out. 

Don’t forget this!
쌤통이다.

"Schadenfreude" in Korean? OOOO!

Halo semua! Kembali lagi di podcast saya! 
Apa kabar di bulan Januari ini?
Apa kalian sudah buat gol-gol kecil untuk tahun ini? 
Kalau saya, karena sekarang saya sedang belajar Bahasa Spanyol, saya juga mau buat gol kecil, yaitu mendengar 1 podcast setiap hari. 
Tips dari saya untuk belajar bahasa baru adalah : 
1. Kelilingi diri kalian dengan bahasa itu, lewat musik, film, buku, media sosial.
2. Sabar, be patient! Belajar bahasa baru itu perlu waktu. 
3. Bersenang-senang, have fun! Jangan terlalu serius, dan itu akan membuat lebih menyenangkan!
4. Cari tutor atau teman yang berbicara dengan bahasa itu. Berlatihlah dengan mereka. 
Jadi, untuk kalian yang sedang belajar Bahasa Indonesia, bersabarlah, bersenang-senanglah dan nikmatilah!
Jangan angkat tangan! "Angkat tangan", artinya "menyerah", ”give up", "諦める”
Jangan menyerah ya! Don't give up!  諦めないでね！
Selamat beraktivitas! Sampai jumpa lagi! ^^


Akhir minggu
