One of my American friends asked me to help him.
He needs to translate his American driver's license into Japanese.
His physical license doesn't qualify to prove that he had the qualification for 3 month in his country because once he lost it and the date was renewed.
He has a copy of previous license and he wonders if it should be translated as well.
I phoned the office twice but they were too busy, so the announce ended the calls.
When he visits the office, I would like to be an interpreter for him.

Геолокация детей смартфоном становится ещё популярнее среди родителей здесь. Вчера я смотрел репортаж об этом. Благодаря трекерам GPS, родители могут присматривать за движениями детей в реальном времени. Они могут проверять, что они в классе, а не в городе с друзьями, например. Прежде всего они чувствуют себя спокойнее. Так как они всегда знают, где находится ребёнок, они думают, что эта система предотвращает неприятные встречи.
Но что делают преступники в первую очередь, когда похищают ребёнка? Наверно они выбрасывают телефон! Независимо от всех вопросах про уважение личной жизни, мне кажется, что разработчики таких решений продают иллюзию безопасности, не настоящую безопасность... Однако клиентам этого достаточно.

It's known for its slow, graceful movements and deep breathing techniques.
Have you ever seen people moving slowly and gracefully in the park?
It's an ancient Chinese martial art that combines exercise, meditation and philosophy.
Taichi is very easy to learn.
Tachi is not just an exercise.
It also teaches us patience and harmony.

Ce matin, il pleuvait malheureusement. Depuis environ une semaine, je prenais mon petit-déjeuner dans le jardin chaque matin, donc j’étais déçu de ne pas pouvoir le faire aujourd’hui.
Mais bon, il faut aussi de la pluie pour que les plantes poussent, donc c’était finalement une bonne chose.

The number of non‑Japanese staff has reportedly tripled in the past three years in Japanese Animation industry. Many of them follow a similar path: they study Japanese either in their home country or in Japan, and then apply for jobs at Japanese animation studios.
After returning home, many continue to work online, and there are now more than 300 overseas studios involved in Japanese animation. This shows that former employees are helping maintain animation quality even from abroad. They are really indispensable workforce for Japan.
Today’s Nikkei reports that the number of Japanese learners has been increasing worldwide, because Japanese language skills often lead to better job opportunities across many industries, including animation studios. According to Duolingo, Japanese is now the fourth most‑studied language, ranking above other Asian languages such as Chinese and Korean.

(Ça fait longtemps depuis j'ai écrit sur LangCorrect. Je suis désolée si les phrases sont trop longues!)
« Hé, Jacques ! Tu t'es reveillé ? » Louis a dit en ouvrant la porte d'appartement de son ami.
« Eh, ouais. Pourquoi ? T'as besoin de quelque chose ? » Jacques a répondu.
« Tu veux aller chez George avec moi ? On peut prendre le diner en chemin ! » Louis a continué.. « Je te promets qu'il sera amusant ! »
« Ben ça semble amusant mais j'ai pas de billets de bus, et chez George est loin.. » ..mais avant Jacques pourrait continuer..
« Mec, tu *sais* que je peux en acheter un pour toi. Tu dois pas demander. » Louis a l'air pas impressionné.
« Ouf.. okay. S'il m'y faut aller.. » Jacques a marché vers son sac. « Mais tu vas éxpliquer pourquoi on l'a attendu pas avant aller le resto.. »
« Si c'est un problème, on peut manger après on le recontre. » Louis a quitté l'appartement, mais pas avant dire.. « Maintenant, lève-toi ! On doit aller à la gare ! »
Alors Jacques a suivi Louis à la gare, et ils ont pris le train pour voir leur ami, George.
Ils ont mangé avant passer la nuit chez lui. Fin.

Hello!
I'm Baitu.
I'm Japanese.
Baitu is written as「白兎」in Chinese character.
「白兎」corresponds to "white rabbit" in English.
Baitu is not a Japanese pronunciation, but a Chinese one.
Besides English, I also study Chinese and Russian.
I often read foreign language books, and watch videos on YouTube.
I am confident in reading and listening, but I don't like communicating with other people in foreign languages.
Unfortunately, I don't have many chances to communicate with native speakers.
Nowadays, I join the English conversation class, which the city hall offers for citizens.
I'm too shy to speak English or even Japanese in public, so I'm not used to the class yet.
I love Disney.
Of course, I visit Tokyo Disney Resort a few times a year, and I also watch Disney movies.
I've also been to Hong Kong Disneyland once.
My dream is flying to the original Disneyland and Walt Disney World.
However, I can't bear long flights.
Even the six-hour flight to Hong Kong bothered me, I might get more irritated on a flight to the U.S.
Surprisingly, it has been reported that Japanese airline, ZIPAIR is now offering the direct flight to Orlando this summer.
So, I'm checking my schedule, but I probably won’t be able to go.
Bye.

According to statistics, the average French person drinks 70 bottles of wine each year.
They start with a glass of sparkling wine before each meal to whet their appetite.
When the appetizers arrive they drink a crisp white wine.
When the steak comes, red wine is appropriate to enhance its flavour.
The meal is finished; do they stop drinking?
No yet, there is still one more glass of wine called digestif.
Actually, they never drink wine to get drunk, but to make each dish more delicious.

Recently, I have been drinking black tea. The tea brand is "凤" (Fèng), which means "Phoenix," and its variant is "经典58" (Jīngdiǎn 58, meaning "Classic 58"). It is produced in Fengqing County, a highland county in Yunnan Province.
China has several different black tea brands, among which the famous ones are "祁门红茶" (Qímén Hóngchá), "正山小种" (Zhèngshān Xiǎozhǒng), "英德红茶" (Yīngdé Hóngchá), and "滇红" (Diānhóng). "滇" (Diān) is the abbreviation for Yunnan Province, so "经典58" is also a type of "滇红" (Diānhóng).
I have tried "正山小种" (Zhèngshān Xiǎozhǒng). It is too expensive and isn’t that tasty, at least for me. "祁门红茶" (Qímén Hóngchá) is produced in my province. I tried it first of all. It has an affordable price and tastes okay. "英德红茶" (Yīngdé Hóngchá) is cheap but not very tasty.
So I have ended up drinking "经典58" regularly. It tastes pretty good and is affordable, priced at about 20 yuan per 50 grams.
Most people who like black tea choose "经典58" and drink it all year round.
I don’t drink strong black tea. I just put a few tea leaves in, so that the tea isn’t too bland, allowing me to drink it regularly to stay healthy.
Since I only drink light-flavored tea, 200 grams of tea may be enough for me for a whole year. This only costs 80 yuan. How economical!

In the 1990s, we didn't have smart phones.
We only had telephones and beepers.
Entertainment was simply reading novels and magazines, as computers were not yet widely available.
The tape recorder was used for learning a foreign language.
Primary school had been too easy and I had rarely studied outside of class.
The time outside of class was spent on swimming.
In 1994, I was a primary school student.
I had very little homework.
We didn't have smartphones, and we didn't even know what Tiktok was.
If there were a time machine, I would like to go back to the 1990s.
My grandparents were still alive.
What a happy childhood!

Ahora escribo algunos textos en la clase de comunicación científica. Es interesante escribir sobre mis habilidades cuando escribo una publicación en el foro de discusión. Normalmente, escribo algo en español mientras escucho un podcast sobre psicología como “Somo Estupendas” o “Claudia Nicolasa Psicología | Análisis Psicológicos” en Spotify. Por eso, puedo escribir en un idioma extranjero más fácilmente. Además, puedo escribir mis opiniones sobre un tema como las amistades tóxicas porque estoy escuchando un episodio sobre este tema en Somos Estupendas.
En mi opinión, en una amistad tóxica no hay buena comunicación. En Euphoria, Cassie estaba celosa de su mejor amiga Maddy. Por ejemplo, Cassie copió la ropa y el maquillaje de Maddy para llamar la atención de Nate. De verdad, Cassie quería ser como Maddy. Desafortunadamente, Cassie estaba saliendo con Nate a espaldas de Maddy. Cassie era una amiga mala para Maddy.

你好。
我叫白兔。
我是日本人女子。
我用书和上网学习已经普通话一年了。
我也学习英文和俄语,不过我没和外国人交流的机会。
通过这个网站,我想提高我的中文水平。
我很喜欢迪士尼。
两年前左右,为了去香港尽情享受香港迪士尼乐园,我先开始学习粤语。
我在迪斯尼乐园听懂了一些表演和设施的音声。
旅行之后,我更努力学习粤语。
不过,我学习粤语越来越多,我觉得了为了理解香港人提供的视频先要理解普通话。
因为除外儿童视频以外,很多香港人的视频没有粤语字幕,而是普通话字幕。
所以,我最近集中学习普通话。
当然,我也想去上海迪士尼乐园。
听说在上海迪士尼乐园,会说英语的工作人员不多。
所以,我掌握中文后想去上海。
再见。

Daniel was one of the prophets of Israel.
In spite of being in a foreign country, he kept his faith in God.
King Darius of Persia gave great importance to Daniel.
Because of his outstanding talent, he aroused the envy of others, and Daniel was thrown into the lion's den.
The Persian king was greatly shocked when he saw that the lion did not devour him.
"My God sent an angel to shut the lion's mouth," responded Daniel.
Daniel prayed three times a day facing Jerusalem.
This story shows the power of daily prayer.
Even in the face of death threats, he never changed.
His faith was not driven by needs, but centered around God.
My mum is very familiar with the Bible.
She can recount every story in it.

今日難しいトピックについて書きたいです。たくさん珍しい単語が必要なので、メディアの話を形容する事は今も一番難しいです。人々は長いポストを読んで訂正する事があまり好きじゃないと思うから、短く書きましょう。
「ベター・コール・ソウル」というショーの最大のテーマは「いくらあなたは悪化しても、変わりたかったらいつも遅すぎません」だと思います。大事なイメージは「バッド・チョイス・ロード」(悪い決断の道)です。このアイデアは、一つだけの悪い決断をした後で、もう悪すぎる人になったと思うから段々もっともっと酷い事をし始めるようです。ショーの最初に、色々なキャラクターはもうバッド・チョイス・ロードに通っていて、止めたくても逃げられないと思うから自分を助けません。
誰でもは主人公のようにする事が楽だと思います。悪い気持ちを避けたり怒りを従いながら皆を攻めたりする事が気持ち良いけど、魂にとって危ないです。痛みを感じる事が必要で、悪い決断をしたら戦わなず結果を受けるべきです。

“Adentro y Afuera” del pintor Rómulo Macció (1967) es tanto una liberación como una jaula. Del estilo abstracto, proyéctanos al lienzo lo que nos pinta. Y en él, cuando lo vemos suficientemente, lo abstracto sería nosotros no el sujeto.
Afuera, nós queda los colores fríos: tonos de azul, gris, y blanco que se ocultan. Nebuloso en su rostro, la cara sin duda, sin piedad, sin edad nos refleja el rostro de cualquiera: ya que sea nuestro viejo, amigo, o yo mismo del futuro, lo irreconocible se convierte en lo innegable. Grotesco, truculento, morboso, sus halagos suman para resaltar menos. Menos alegría, menos pretensión, menos problemas.
Adentro, se queda: si mismo, lo mismo, en el abismo de un lienzo que se duda de la incertidumbre . Con garras, con patas, con manos que se forman, se desforman, se descomponen hasta que se realice su forma final. Un final sin juicio, sin prejuicio, sin precedente: tanto adentro como afuera, quizás sea lo que siemore ha sido: él mismo.
Con una inversión de un ángulo, lo adentro y lo afuera se vuelven iguales. Dos lados de la misma cara, la cara oculta la verdad. La verdad es grotesca, truculenta y morbosa hasta que se forma al final.

Along some streets in the city where I live, many plane trees have been planted.
I especially love plane trees, as they are tall, large and lush, giving us a sense of history and contentment.
The branches of plane trees on both sides of the street can even reach each other, forming a green canopy that blocks out the hot sun and casts cool, deep shadows on the street, protecting people from the heat. This is their most striking feature, and it’s loved by most people.
I commute to and from work four times a day. I like to take streets lined with plane trees.
Every time I walk under the canopy of plane trees, I feel happy and content.

昨日のノート(投稿?)の話題は料理です。計画通りじゃないけど、今日も私は料理についてまだ話したい。多分本当の理由は今私はお腹空いたですね。
今朝、毎日読む時で「木曜日にはココアを」というの小説集を読み続けました。2目の小説で、主人公は卵焼きを料理しました。料理する語彙を読んだ時で、私は不思議ないい感じになりました。
いろいろな好きな料理するアニメと漫画を見たことありました。「甘々と稲妻」「衛宮さんの今日のご飯」「日々は過ぎれど飯うまし」というのアニメとか英語の字幕で見ったんだけど、話す言語はまだ日本語だから、たぶん私に頭に日本語の料理語彙は慣れられました。だからそのいい感じになりましたと思う。
ちなみに、「焼きたて!!ジャパン」も見たことあるけど、そのパン料理は架空すぎるから、無理と思います。
