Gírias (slangs) 

おにぎりがある棚からあるおにぎりが目についた、それは明太子だ。私は漢字が少し読める。
最初の字は[明] 明日や明るいの漢字だ、次は[太]
太いや太陽の漢字だ、最後に[子] 子供や餃子(ぎょうざ)に使われている漢字だ。写真を見ても何か全然わからない。緊張するが店員に聞くことにした。一人の店員がおにぎりの棚の横で新しいサラダの商品を補充していた。その男は若くて長い黒髪を後ろで束ねていた。インナーメッシュをしてあるようで水色の髪が少し耳のあたりから見えた。

私「　すみません、、」
店員A 「はい、」
私「これはなんですか？」
店員A「おにぎりです。」
私「このピンク色の写真の物はなんですか？」
店員A「 明太子　(め•ん•た•い•こ) です。」
私「めんたいこ？？」
店員A「明太子とは魚のたらのたまごです」
私「どんな味ですか？」
店員A「塩の味が強くて、めんたいこの風味があります。」
私「わかりました、買います。どうもありがとうございました！」

私は会話が終わったとたんどっと疲れた。緊張はまだ残っているが、汗ばんだ両手で明太子と梅のおにぎりを一つずつ持ちレジへと向かった。

I noticed a  onigiri from the shelf with onigiri, it is cod roe. I can read a few kanji. The first character is [mei], which means tomorrow or bright, the next is [tai], which means thick or sun, and the last is [ko], which is used for children or gyoza (dumplings). I had no idea what it was even though I looked at the pictures. I was nervous, but decided to ask the staff. One of the staff was restocking new salad items next to the onigiri (rice ball) shelf. The man was young and had long black hair tied back. He seemed to have an inner mesh, and a little bit of his light blue hair was visible around his ears.


I  "Excuse me," 
Staff A  "Yes," 
I "What is this?" 
Staff A  "It's an onigiri." 
I  "What is this pink thing in the picture?" 
StaffA  "It's mentaiko." 
I  "Mentaiko? 
Staff A  "Mentaiko is the egg of cod roe" 
I  "What does it taste like? 
Staff A  "It has a strong salt taste and mentaiko flavor. 
I  "Okay, I will buy it. Thank you very much!" 

I was exhausted as soon as the conversation ended. My nerves were still in place, but with sweaty hands I took one mentaiko and one ume onigiri and headed for the cash register.

VERSCHWENDUNG von Lebensmitteln
(A)  Etwa 88 Millionen Tonnen LEBENSMITTEL werden in der Europäischen Union jedes Jahr weggeworfen. Sie kosten die ungeheure Summe von 143 Milliarden Euro.
(B)  Das geschieht in einer  Welt mit fast 800 Millionen hungernder Menschen. 55 Millionen Menschen in der Europäischen Union können SICH jeden zweiten Tag keine warme Mahlzeit LEISTEN. 
(C)  Das Europäische Parlament möchte bis 2030 eine Situation schaffen, in der rund 50 Prozent der heute VERSCHWENDETEN Lebensmittel besser VERTEILT werden. Wie könnte man das machen?
(D)  Man könnte mit Lebensmitteln, die nicht mehr für Menschen GEEIGNET sind, zum Beispiel Tiere füttern. Man könnte das Interesse am SPENDEN von Lebensmitteln erhöhen, wenn man die HygieneVORSCHRIFTEN für diese Lebensmittel lockern würde. Man könnte Verbraucher informieren, dass viele Lebensmittel auch nach dem MINDESTHALTBARKEITSDATUM noch GENIESSBAR sind. Und schließlich gibt es Apps wie „Zu gut für die Tonne“. Sie informieren Menschen über Restaurants und Geschäfte, wo Lebensmittel billiger verkauft werden, damit sie nicht in der Mülltonne landen.

Welcome to the American English Pronunciation Guide. My name is Trevor Kafka, and I am your host.

There are many different varieties of American English. I was born and raised in New York, which has given me General American English pronunciation. The English that I speak has 15 vowel sounds. 

Please view the transcript for help while listening.

Today, we will talk about the vowel sound number 1 of 15: /æ/ black cat. The mouth must be open and wide for this sound, maybe a little more than you are used to in your native language.

Listen to me saying this sound and repeat: /æ/, /æ/, /æ/

Listen to and repeat the following single-syllable words:
black
cat
bad
can
have
laugh
sad
tax
thank

Listen to and repeat the following multiple-syllable words:
eggplant
gather
happen
master
command
family
unsatisfied
understand
imagine

Listen to and repeat the following sentences:
The mad cat had a hat.
It is bad to have a laugh when your family is sad.
I can imagine you’re unsatisfied with the master’s command.

I would like to thank Shirley Thompson and Karen Taylor for their work in developing the set of key phrases that I use with each vowel, such as /æ/ black cat, /eɪ/ grey day, etc.

Episode 1 - Vowels æ black cat (1 of 15)

将帅是国君的辅佐，辅佐得周详严密，国家就必定强盛；辅佐有疏漏，国家就必然衰弱。
 
国君对军队的危害大体有三种：不了解军队不可以进攻而命令进攻，不了解军队不能撤退而强令军队撤退，这叫做束缚军队；不懂得军中事务却要干预军队的管理事务，将士们会无所适从；不懂得军队作战的权宜机变，却要干预军队的指挥，将士就会产生疑虑。如果军队既无所适从，又疑虑重重，其他诸侯国就会趁机兴兵作难。这就叫做自乱其军，自取其败。因此，以下五种情况可预见获胜：懂得什么情况下可以与敌作战，什么情况下不能与敌作战的，能够获胜；懂得根据兵力的多寡而灵活采取不同战略战术的，能够获胜；将帅与士兵同心同德、同仇敌忾的，能够获胜；以有备之师对付疏懈之敌的，能够获胜；将帅有组织指挥才能而国君又不妄加干预的，能够获胜。这五者是作战取胜的根本条件。
 
所以说：既了解敌方情况，又了解自己情况，才能常胜不败；不了解敌方情况，只了解自己情况，胜败的几率均等；既不了解敌方情况，又不了解自己情况，那每战必败。
