Russian with Elina

Auto-stop
Ce matin, Poulette, la poule blanche, est partie en ville. Elle voulait s'acheter des bottes.
Le soir tombe, il est temps de rentrer au poulailler. Elle a froid et mal aux pattes avec ses nouvelles bottes!
Au loin, on entend un bruit de voiture. Poulette se met au bord de la route et fait de l'auto-stop avec son aile.
L’auto s'arrête.
- Bonjour, dit Léon, le hérisson, tu veux monter?
- Avec plaisir, je suis fatiguée et j'ai peur de rencontrer le renard, répond Poulette.
- Le renard, il est sur le siège arrière, je le conduis chez le dentiste. Il s'est cassé trois dents. Pas de danger pour toi! Prendre en auto-stop une poule et un renard, c'est rare.
- Et un hérisson qui conduit une voiture, n'est-ce pas bizarre? demande Poulette.

はい、こんにちは。今回はシーズン2の6回目です。2023年明けましておめでとうございます。１月１日の午前中、家の周りを散歩しました。去年の正月はとても静かでしたが、今年の正月はなんだか賑やかでした。家の周りの公園やカフェやレストランに外国人観光客がたくさんいたからです。日本では家や近所で正月を過ごす人が多いですが、他の国では海外旅行をする人が多いですね。私も海外旅行に行きたいですが、今の航空券の値段が高すぎて驚いています。

Hello. This is episode 6 of season 2 of my podcast. Happy New Year! I hope you all have a wonderful 2023. On the morning of 1 January, I took a walk around my neighbourhood. Last New Year's Day was very quiet, but this New Year's Day was somewhat lively. This is because there were many foreign tourists in the parks, cafés and restaurants nearby my house. In Japan, many people spend New Year's at home or in their neighbourhood, but in other countries, many people travel abroad. I would like to travel abroad too, but I am surprised at how expensive airline tickets are nowadays.

今日は日本語のアクセントについてお話ししたいと思います。例えば日本語では「箸」と「橋」の例が有名です。この二つの単語は「は」と「し」で出来ていますから、ひらがなで書くと全く同じです。読み方で意味の違いを表現します。「箸」のように「は」を「し」よりも高いピッチで発音すると、chopsticksの意味になります。もう一度発音します「箸」。そして、「橋」のように「は」を「し」よりも低いピッチで発音すると、bridgeの意味になります。もう一度発音します「橋」。箸を使って、寿司を食べます。ロンドンブリッジは有名な橋です

Today I would like to talk about pitch accent in Japanese. For example, the well-known examples in Japanese are ‘Hashi' (chopsticks) and ‘Hashi' (bridge). These two words are made up of 'ha' and 'shi', so when written in hiragana they are exactly the same. The way they are pronounced expresses the difference in meaning. If the 'ha' is pronounced with a higher pitch than the 'shi', as in 'Hashi', it means 'chopsticks'. Pronounce it again ‘Hashi' (chopsticks). And if you pronounce the 'ha' lower in pitch than the 'shi', as in 'Hashi', it means ‘bridge’. Pronounce it again, ‘Hashi' (bridge). Use ‘Hashi' (chopsticks) to eat sushi. London Bridge is a famous ‘Hashi' (bridge).

International Tea Day is observed every year on May 21st and it aims to raise awareness of the long history and deep cultural and economic significance of Tea around the world. The idea is to promote and to somehow Implement activities in favour of promoting everything related to tea.

 International Tea Day has been celebrated for quite some time. It started off on December 15th in countries like India, Sri Lanka, Nepal, Vietnam, Indonesia and others across Africa such as Malaysia and Tanzania. The idea is to draw global attention to tea and to the global tea trade.

It has also been  linked to wanting more support to keep the cost of tea down. In 2015, the Indian Government proposed expanding the observance of International Tea today  by having some kind of intergovernmental group to discuss tea. They created something which led to big efforts to support the world's tea economy and in 2015, they had a big meeting in Milan to discuss the idea of an international Tea Day.  It then went to the United Nations. And that's how We managed to get International Tea Day on the 21st of May. Here's some very interesting facts about tea here in the UK:

The average British person drinks 876 cups of tea every single year. So, that's well over two cups a day if my calculations are right.

 And, apparently, for centuries, it was used only as a medicine. 

Tea was first introduced to Britain almost 400 years ago and was described, described as a Chinese drink because it first came from China.

A cup of tea has become native to British culture. It's the number one choice for British people and herbal teas are also very popular these days.
