Teacher Joseph's Podcast

Northern Ireland (with transcript for study)

Hello, everyone! This is Kate.

Welcome to my podcast. Today we are going to study one very interesting and important grammar, which is gonna help you to sound like a native speaker.

Ready?-Let’s go!


Okay, imagine that you need to go to the hairdressers. Your hair is long and obviously it’s time to do something with it. How would you tell this to your companion?  

“I’m gonna cut my hair?”, but you are not doing it yourself, so, there is a better option.

If you are getting some services, there is a construction which simplifies everything.

To have something done.

Listen to my examples:

I have my hair cut every month.
I’m having my hair cut right now.
I’ve decided. I will have my hair cut!

The verb have is used like any other verb and it follows all the rules.

Present simple: I have my windows cleaned every week. Someone cleans them for me.
Present Perfect: I have just had my dinner cooked. Someone cooked it for me.
Past Continuous: I was having my homework checked yesterday.


You see, it’s super easy and handy!


Practise yourself, here are some sentences in the description below:

I didn't cook my dinner myself. Someone prepared it for me.
I usually don't clean the windows by myself.
I have never cut my hair myself
I will not fix my car. My dad will do it for me.
I won’t check my blood pressure myself.

Have something done: WHAT IS IT?

Kao i svako dijete i ja sam trebao ime... Roditelji su me nazvali Tomislav u čast prvog Hrvatskog kralja.

Priče iz Hrvatske

Epizoda 1 : Kralj Tomislav

Listen and repeat:

dragonfly, dandelions, duck, dolphin, dirt, dog biscuits, donkey, dalmation, dock, dice, drum

Halo semua! Apa kalian menikmati akhir minggu dengan baik?
Hari ini saya punya cerita menarik! Hari Jumat minggu lalu, waktu bertemu dengan salah satu murid saya, saya bilang “Di Indonesia, banyak polisi tidur di jalan loh”. Terus, murid saya bingung, “Polisi tidur di jalan? Untuk apa? Itu sangat bahaya kan!” Dia kaget banget! 
Ya, ya, “Polisi tidur” di Bahasa Inggris artinya “speed bump”, tapi saya pikir di Jepang tidak ada polisi tidur ya, jadi artinya polisi tidur adalah 車の速度を落とさせるための道路上の段差のこと。Menarik kan! 
Di Indonesia, biasanya di area yang ada sekolah atau di jalanan kecil, banyak polisi tidur. Kadang-kadang ada 4, 5 polisi tidur. Jadi, kalau kalian pergi ke Indonesia, jangan kaget melihat banyak polisi tidur di jalan. Hehe.. Ok, Sampai di sini ya. Sampai jumpa lagi! 

Akhir minggu

Polisi tidur

こんばんは！Atsushiです。

今日は、とても忙しい時、大変な時に使う、
骨が折れる、について話します。
本当に骨が折れるわけではないです。

骨が折れるとは、慣用句かんようくですね。
慣用句（かんようく）とは、習慣として長い間広く使われてきた、ひとまとまりの言葉・文句や言い回しのことですね。

何かをする時、たくさんの苦労がいることを言います。 もともとの意味は「骨折」です。

例えば、

今日の宿題はたくさんあるから、骨が折れる。
遊びにさそわれたけど、今日は行きたくないから断るのに骨が折れる。
今日の仕事はとても忙しくて骨が折れた。
このドラマはシーズン10まであるので、全部見るのに骨が折れる。

などですかね。

大変です、とか大変でめっちゃ疲れた！という時に使ってみてください。

ということで、今日は骨が折れる、について話しました。
このPodcastもいつもネタ探しには骨が折れます。

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！
