Η αλεπού και το κοράκι

From the Book Pocket Rainbow:
Chapter: Scarlet
In this chapter, Ntombi as various recollections of her mother -- some positive, some traumatic. We understand why she's on the street at age 14. 

Please note: there are thousands of colours in a rainbow, not just seven. The titles of the chapters reflect that.

You've been working for weeks on a project and finally get it finished, but someone else takes the credit — what could be more annoying?

Nothing, according to a new workplace survey! It found that people who steal your credit are the most annoying colleagues to work with.

Jobs site Kickresume asked almost 2,900 people around the world about the things that annoy them at work, and they had a lot to talk about!

Around 85% of people said they've worked with an annoying person.

And annoying colleagues don't just make people roll their eyes — they actually affect productivity too. In fact, almost six out of 10 people said that having annoying colleagues has a big effect on their productivity.

Thirty percent of people have a problem with colleagues who complain too much, while the same number get annoyed by those who don't respect personal space — they always stand a little too close!

Colleagues who steal other people's food from the fridge are also a source of annoyance.

Another common annoyance is bosses who micromanage — watching every move you make.

So what can we do about annoying behavior at work?

Many people say they'd like to talk to the person about it, but most don't have the courage.

Instead, 32% of people said they just try to stay away from the person who is annoying them. But that's not always easy, especially if they're stealing your credit — or your lunch!

Experts suggest speaking to a manager about workplace problems.

But here's a question: how do you know if you're not one of the people annoying your colleagues yourself?

ENGLISH IN A TEACUP E9: CRIME AND PUNISHMENT

Cuando hablamos de globalización resulta imprescindible reconocer la gran trascendencia que ha tenido a lo largo de la historia, posterior a la segunda guerra mundial, época en la que decidieron unirse esfuerzos para una mayor apertura económica y política principalmente.

Hoy en día es impensable imaginar un mundo no globalizado, gente no conectada, empresas no vinculadas a la tecnología, desaparición de culturas emergentes surgidas a partir de la fusión con otras o la transculturización, entre tantos otros escenarios que reflejan la globalización en nuestro tiempo.

¿Resulta cuestionable pensar si estamos más a merced de las consecuencias de la globalización? 
Cuéntame, ¿tú qué opinas?. Comparte y comenta...Es muy útil para los que producimos podcasts conocer el impacto en los  estudiantes-oyentes...

こんばんは！Atsushiです。
今日の天気は晴れ。
気温は25℃。少し涼しいですね。

地域によっては結構大雨になっている場所もあります。
少し心配です。


今日は関西弁についてもう少し話します。
前回、1つ間違えて話していたことがありました。
イントネーションと話していましたが、アクセントの間違いでした。

イントネーションとは、文全体の音の高低のことで、
アクセントとは、単語の高低のことを言います。

間違えてすみませんでした！



では、今日は関西弁のおもしろい例文があるので、それを紹介します！

ちゃうちゃうちゃうんちゃう？

わかりますか？もう1度言いますね、

ちゃうちゃうちゃうんちゃう？

解説しますね。
ちゃうちゃうは犬の種類の名前ですね。
ちゃうはちがう、という動詞です。

なので、標準語だと、
チャウチャウ犬と違うんじゃない？
というような意味になります。

もう1度言います。

ちゃうちゃうちゃうんちゃう？

関西弁はとても個性的で、おもしろいと思いますので、興味のある方はいろいろ調べてみてください。


ということで、今回も最後まで聞いていただき、ありがとうございます！

ではまた！
