はい、こんにちは。今回はポッドキャストの12回目です。前回から少し日にちが空いてしまいました。私は今月の18日から子宮筋腫の手術のために入院することになり、ポッドキャストを更新できませんでした。手術は無事終わり、今朝退院しました。5月の終わりから大学のクラスも始まるので、準備しなければいけません。桜はもう散って、外は暖かくなってきました。
Hello, this is episode 12 of season 2 of my podcast. It has been a little while since the last time. I have not been able to update the podcast as I have been in hospital since the 18th of this month for an operation for fibroids. The operation went well and I was discharged this morning, and I have to prepare for university classes starting at the end of May. The cherry blossoms have already fallen and it is getting warmer outside.
私は普段、毎日仕事をしています。一週間以上仕事を休んだのは5年ぶりです。最後に仕事を休んだ時は、2018年の春にロサンゼルスに旅行に行った時でした。だけど、ロサンゼルスでは仕事を続けていたので、完全な休みではありませんでした。今回はパソコンやインターネットが使えなかったので、完全な休みです。入院している時は、本を読んだり、携帯アプリのゲームをしたりして、時間を過ごしました。手術は成功しましたが、傷や体調はまだ完全に回復していません。１ヶ月後にもう一度検査をします。
I usually work every day. It has been five years since I have taken more than a week off work. The last time I took time off work was when I travelled to Los Angeles in the spring of 2018. But it wasn't a complete holiday because I continued working in Los Angeles. This time it was a complete holiday because I wasn't able to use a computer or the Internet. When I was in hospital, I spent my time reading books and playing game apps. The operation was a success, but my wounds and condition have not fully recovered yet; I will have another check-up in a month's time.
入院している間に読んだ本は、エマニュエル・トッド(Emmanuel Todd)の本です。エマニュエル・トッドは1951年生まれのフランスの歴史人口学者です。彼は人口、宗教、家族構成などの世界中の歴史のデータを研究して、これからの社会や政治の出来事を正確に予想できることで有名です。私は、第三次世界大戦の可能性について調べていたとき、彼のことを知りました。 学者じゃなくても、歴史や社会については、知識があるに越したことはありません。「越したことはない」とは、「何かは常に一番いいアイデア」という意味です。動詞・名詞・形容詞に使います。たとえば、健康に越したことはありません。

The Adventures of Captain Underpants

The Big Bang Chapter 14

어제 비가 많이 왔어요.  Yesterday it rained a lot. 
그래서 나무가 쓰러졌어요. So a tree fell over. 
어제 yesterday
비가 오다 It rains. 
그래서 so, therefore, that's why
나무 a tree
쓰러지다 (in this case) to fall over

Please after listening to this, repeat it twice. !!

나무가 쓰러졌어요

Working from home and avoiding the journey to and from the office is saving many of us at least an hour every day, according to a 2023 study.

But we're not always using that saved time for ourselves — we're actually spending a lot of that time working.

The US-based National Bureau of Economic Research (NBER) did a survey that looked at how workers in 27 countries used their time when working from home.

On average, the daily time saved by working from home was found to be 72 minutes.

Workers in China saved 102 minutes per day, while in Japan it was 100 minutes, and in India it was 99.

But the study also found that, on average, 40% of that saved time was spent working — either on the worker's main job or on an additional one.

Workers in Malaysia, Singapore and Taiwan said they used more than half of their saved time to work.

So what happened to the rest of that extra time?

According to the study, an average of 34% was used as leisure time — with people in Germany and Austria using almost half of their extra time for leisure.

And 11% — about eight minutes per day — was spent looking after children or other family members.

The NBER said children had gotten a better deal with parents working from home — but that the big winners were employers, who got extra work time from their employees.
