5 minutes Turkish everyday

Everyday Turkish episode 1

こんにちは、Mikaです
このポッドキャストでは私の日々の出来事を通して、日本語をより身近に
楽しく感じてもらえたら嬉しいです。
短い間ですがリラックスした気分でどうぞお付き合いください。

9月に入り、日本はだいぶ秋らしくなってきました。
日本の秋の行事といえば "お月見" がありますが
みなさん、お月見を知っていますか？
これは中国から伝わったもので、美しい月を見ながらお団子のなどのお菓子を食べることです。
それだけではなく本来は秋にできた豊作物が無事に収穫できたことを感謝する行事です。
なんだかアメリカのハロウィンに似ていますね。
そして月の大きさが変わることは生物の誕生と死を想像することから
先祖への感謝を伝える意味も含まれています。

お月見の時に食べるものといえば月見団子が有名ですが
他にもお餅やおまんじゅうなど月のような丸い形のものを食べる習慣があります。
最近では玉子を満月に見立てた月見バーガーや月見うどんなども人気です。
日本人は丸い食べ物を満月に例えて食べることが好きですね ♪

みなさんも美味しい丸いものを食べながら
日本らしいお月見を楽しんでみてください。
そしてお月見についてもっと深く学びたい人は
是非私の日本の歴史のレッスンを予約してみてくださいね。

それでは今日も笑顔の多い一日を！またね～

We know we should appreciate people more often but do we know how to acknowledge them and why is it even so important? 

In a conversation when you acknowledge people, they feel heard and valued. They become more open-minded even if you are opposing their beliefs. It’s because, through your acknowledgment of their ideas, they know that you have been listening and you understand where they are coming from. If you want to do business with people or maintain a good relationship with them, without learning how to acknowledge people, you will get nowhere.

Acknowledging is easy.

Just paraphrase what they said and follow up with a relevant question or your opinion. Paraphrasing proves that you understand them since you express their ideas using your own words. 

During negotiations or discussions even if you disagree with people, you can make them hear you out by disagreeing politely or by partially disagreeing with them. A strong disagreement shows that you are unwilling to talk. This makes the negotiation take a negative turn and go downhill. 

So, disagree politely and follow up with relevant questions to show that you are interested in learning more about them. 

What you do is often reciprocated. When you listen, they listen. When you show interest in people, they will show interest in you. When you acknowledge them, they will acknowledge your work, ideas, and suggestions.

Acknowledge people. Have more discussions and not arguments.

My podcast, "にほんご聞こう" (Let's Listen to Japanese), starts today. This podcast is designed for people at various levels of Japanese proficiency, so I've made adjustments in terms of vocabulary, grammar, and speaking speed. I speak slowly in Episode 1. In the next episode, 1.5, I'll be speaking at a regular pace. Furthermore, the content of the second episode has additional information, so listening to both can be fun for comparison.
