My first entry

Hello guys,
I would like to improve my English skills because I feel like I should be better by now. I'm in English class right now and I'm really bored. I'm in a learning hub where students have to study on their own and I feel like my English is not improving.

I hope I didn't make a lot of mistakes.

Das Schloss des Napa

Es gibt im Norden der San Francisco ein großes Tal heißt Napa Valley. Es ist als der Hauptstadt des Kalifornienwein bekannt und gibt viele verschiedene Kellereien. Ein Kellerei gibt drei Labradorhunde und hat ein Cabernet Sauvingnon, das natürlich "Drei Lab Cab" heißt. Die Labradorhunde sind sehr süß. Ein ist schwarz, ein ander gelb, und das lästes braun/schokoladebraun.

Meine Lieblingskellerei ist aber Castello di Amorosa. Es ist ein prachtvolles Schloss, das in Anlehnung an einen 13. Jahrhundert toskanisch Schloss gebaut ist. Es sieht sehr alt aus, hat aber in 1994 bauen angefangen. Es war in 2007 erledigt.

Das Schloss liegt auf einem kleinen Hügel, der mit Weinrebe bedeckt ist. Man kann ein Schlosstour machen und sehe ein Verlies, das voller Mittelalterenwaffen ist. Es gibt auch hunderte Weinfässer und man kann ein junges Wein schmecken.

Wenn Sie selbst in San Francisco oder Nordenkalifornien finden, dann sollten Sie Napa besuchen versuchen. Es ist sehr schön und das schlechter Dinge, dass passieren könnte, wird von Kalifornienwein Kalifornienwein betrunken zu werden!

天気の子(ネタバレ)

昨日と今日、天気の子はサンフランシスコ映画館にリリースしたので、日本人の友達と一緒に見に行った。彼は2回この映画を見たが、僕は始めてだった。設定と音楽など、全部が良かった。

全然想像出来なかったことはこの映画では君の名はの二人のキャラクターが出てきた!友達によると、2つの映画は同じ世界で、天気の子のタイムラインは4年先だ。

ちょっと悩んだことは最初から晴れの子は沢山魔法を使ったら、居なくなると教えてくれた。それを知らなかったので、本当に気になった。そしてヒナは晴れが来るためによく祈ったので、ずっと彼女が居なくなることに心配した。

あとプレイボイ小学生の子供が出て超面白かった。そしてほだかがヒナが好きので、彼からrelationshipアドバイスもらった。この子供のおかげで、よく笑った!

この映画が好きで、もう一度見たいと思う。

間違えました!

昨日歯医者に行きましたが、閉まっていました。 僕の予約は昨日の夜だと思いましたが結局今日です! 暇だったので近所にある肉屋に行って美味しそうなステーキを買いました。歯が欠けてから口の左側で噛めません。そして口の右側だけで全部を噛まなければならないし、肉は硬かったし、凄く時間がかかりました。

제가 한국어를 배우는 이유

3년 전에 제 한국인 친구는 제가 그녀와 함깨 한국어 수업을 듣는 것을 원했어요. 여름 동안 그녀 더 좋은 점수를 원했어요. 그런데 혼자 가고 싶지않아요. 보통 선생님이 되기 위해서 대학교에 프랑스어와 스페인어를 공부해요. 그리고 새 언어를 재미있는 것 같았어요. 한글이 가장 쉬웠는데 어휘과 듣기가 문제가 되어 왔어요. 이 수업이 전에 저는 한국팝과 한국드라마들을 많이 안 보지만 공부하기 위해서 그들 이용하기 때문에 좋아하기 시작했어요. 공부를 쉬기 후에 지금 혼자 연습하고 있는데 올해 원어민과 더 얘기하고 싶은 것을 제 목적이예요. 읽기 감사합니다!

Regulation of coal ash

The content of the reading and listening is totally contradictory in the new regulations of protecting the environment from burning coal in power plants that produce coal ash. Firstly, the reading mentions that environmental regulations already exist. Companies are required to use liner for preventing coal ash leaking into the ponds or landfills. However, the listening maintains that the regulations are not sufficient at all, because the liner has to be used only when companies build new landfills or pounds. Companies are not required to use in odd one. So, it causes significant damage that chemical materials leak into drinking water.

Secondly, the reading suggests that coal ash has been recycled, which is used in building materials like concrete and brinks, but customers concern that the materials are too dangerous. So they stop buying the products. Yet, the listening asserts that the regulations are not likely stopping customers from buying the products. Take mercury, for example, it is harmful material, but it is successfully and safely recycled for a long time. There are a few concerns from customers.

Lastly, the reading implies that strict new regulations would be raising electricity costs. Likewise, the speaker disputes it and stresses that although the cost increases, the benefit from coal ash is worthwhile than the extra cost. In addition, the cost increases the customers' electricity bill only one percent.

Higher education is valuable for a young person’s future

Dear Sir,
I am writing in response to the recently published article about the value of higher education for a young person’s future. I would like to outline my views on the subject as well as assess the extent to which higher education may be indispensable for young people.
Inarguably, higher education helps young people secure their place under the Sun in the modern extremely volatile and competitive job market. This impact seems to be at least two-fold. Not only does higher education instil some knowledge in the minds of young people, but it also prepares them for the adversity they are bound to encounter later in life. While studying at universities, students are faced with a lot of challenges that must be surmounted. In other words, the academic milieu is instrumental in fostering diligence, assiduity, and thinking-outside-the-box. Opportunity-wise, these features will render yesterday’s alumni eligible for a wider array of job offers.
Casting my mind back to my days at university, I feel glad to have been there. These were my formative years, a stepping stone towards becoming an accomplished individual with a well-rounded personality. It was during this time that I realized what the passion of my life was. I was engrossed in the subject of my research. I was ready to go an extra mile. And, I guess, I was lucky enough. The fusion of these components made me stand out. I got noticed.
At some juncture, some offers for better academic prospects started to trickle. The more results I delivered, the better the offers were. Although I, regrettably, had to leave the academic milieu for good, the analytical mindset that higher education imparted onto me turned out to be indispensable later in my life when I embarked upon my career as an application engineer. Equally essential were the desire for continuous development and the ability to thrive on pressure that seemed to have come to the fore back in my university days.
It is often said that having a degree just adds another social role young people are going to play. Be that as it may, the impact of higher education cannot be circumscribed by this purely utilitarian dimension. Most importantly, higher education profoundly alters the mindset and adds another facet to the personalities of young people. This feeling is incredibly empowering; as such, it may give young people the key with which they may open the hitherto closed doors to a better life and a better world. That is why higher education is extremely valuable.

25 years after the Great Hanshin Earthquake

Kobe’s Great Hanshin-Awaji Earthquake happened on Jan. 17th, 1995.
This is from an article about that earthquake.

“ The magnitude 7.3 quake, which reached the maximum of 7 on the Japanese seismic intensity scale, left 6,434 people dead, over 43,000 injured and forced more than 316,000 to evacuate. Nearly a quarter million buildings were heavily damaged or destroyed.”

I was 9 years old then.
There were my father, mother, grandmother, my eldest brother, second eldest brother, and me at house in Osaka.
Fortunately, only one plate fell down and broke, and we were all safe.

Few days later, my grandmother’s sister-in-law (my grandfather’s sister) came to our house.
Her house in Kobe collapsed, so she stayed at our house for several months.
Our house was too small and we seldom invited any friends until then.
I felt it was really unusual, and there was something emergency happening.

I was too young to understand the whole thing, but I was really happy to be with her.
She was really calm and had a warm heart. She always smiled and played with me.
This memory will remain forever.
I believe that now she always smiles at me from the happiest place called heaven.

In 2018, a big earthquake happened in Hokkaido.
Electricity stopped, but my husband, son, and I were safe.
Soon the power had returned in my apartment, but it seemed still utilities were dead at many of buildings nearby my place.
I called some of my neighbor friends and their families to my small apartment.
I let them use shower, and made simple meals to them.
I strongly wanted to do something I could do then.

Sorry, today’s journal is very long.
I pray for the victims, and may the souls of them rest in peace.

El poble sami

Als països de Noruega, Suècia, Finlàndia i Rusia hi visc el poble Sami. Tenen un terreny que s'extén pel territori nord d'aquests països. Recentment els he descobert, i sent sincer, estic molt interessat en aprendre sobre la seua cultura, història i llengua. N'hi ha el problema més obvi: que hi visc a un país molt llunyà; i altre també: que tinc els estudis universitaris ací i no puc anar-me a altre país. Tampoc és que tinga diners, és clar! Però, conseguint alguns petits recursos online, he pogut arribar a composar una mena de llista de paraules i frases, i, fins i tot, estic escrivint textos curtets en sami del nord en aquesta mateixa pàgina web. Tinc molta il·lusió per a aprendre un muntó més! Aixó sí, m'encantaria conèixer una persona sami i poder parlar en ell o ella i poder aprendre des d'una font més real i natural. De veres pense que les llengües s'aprenen millor quan ets en l'ambient lingüístic d'on és la llengua. És molt obvi, però és cert que per internet o per qualsevol altra via, si li posses l'esforç, pots aprendre qualsevol llengua!

Mein Lieblingsjahreszeit

Mein Lieblingsjahreszeit ist Winter. Viele Menschen, die ich getroffen habe, haben mir gesagt, dass Sommer der beste Jahreszeit ist. Sie mögen die Sonneschein und die Hitze sehr. Ich verstehe warum. Manchmal werden der Regnen und bewolkter Himmel sehr trist sein und Strände und Schwimmen sind toll und entspannend. Aber ich komme aus einen Ort, im die Hitze kann unerträglich sein.

Im Sommer, wenn man heiß ist, man nicht alle die Kleidung ausziehen kann. Allerdings im Winter, kann man mehr und mehr Kleidung anziehen, bis mann zufrieden mit seiner Gemütlichkeit ist. Ich setzte mich gern auf dem Sofa, in viele Decke bedeckt, und ich gehe mit die Decke um dem Haus. Ich liebe auch den Schnee. Ich hoffe, es schneit bald. Jedoch, vermute ich, dass das Leben in Winter ist mehr teuer, wegen der Kosten der Heizung.

Dankeschön fürs Lesen!

<Zwei Sprachen gleichzeitig lernen>

Ich sorge mich darum, dass ich jetzt wieder Koreanisch lernen muss. In Südkorea wohnte ich 8 Jahren lang, aber ich war derzeitig viel zu beschäftigt mit der Arbeit, fokusiert auf Koreanisch Lernen zu sein. Außerdem war ich nicht nur zunächst im Jahr 2009 da (als nicht so viel online Materialen existierten), sondern auch wohnte ich in einer relativ kleinen Stadt, wo es kein/e koreanisch LehrerIn gab. Dann vor 3 Jahren entschieden mein Mann und ich, nach Deutschland umzuziehen, um unsere Masterarbeit zu machen. Deshalb mussten wir dringend Deutsch lernen, und als Resultat sank meine koreanische Niveau sofort tief. Ich war einmal B1/B2 aber jetzt fühle ich mich wieder wie A2. Ich erinnere viel Grammatik Punkte, aber bin jedes Mal frustriert, nicht genug Vokabeln zu haben, um meine Ideen erfolgreich auszudrücken. Ich drücke die Daumen...

練習。一月十七日

日本語でもっと読んで書く必要だと思う。今平仮名と片仮名のテストを見えると、読みたくない!難しいと思わない、平仮名と片仮名に慣れることだけが必要だ。それに、中国語が私の母語なので、私には漢字を勉強し易い。そして、かなより漢字のほうが使いたいね!

Ein tolles Konzert

Ein kurzer Dialog zwischen einem Freund und mir.

- Zu welchem Konzert gehen wir dieses Wochenende?

- Magst du Heavy Metal bzw. Rockmusik? Dann können wir zur berühmten Iron Maiden Band gehen.

- Oh nein, bitte nicht. Ich mag zwar Rockmusik ziemlich gern, aber keine Heavy Metal...

- Ach so, ich verstehe. Auf diesem Festival gibt es also mehrere Bands. Lass uns doch zum Linkin Park Konzert gehen, die spielen sehr gute Musik.

- Das klingt super, wir mögen beide Linkin Park. Auf geht's!

한국어 한번더 (non-native speakers can help me, too!)

저는 팔년동안 한국에서 살았어요. 그렇지만 삼년전에 독일로 이사했고 독일어 배우고 필요 했어서 거의 다 한국어 잊었어요 ㅠㅠ. 지금 한번도 한국말은 공부하고 십어요. 왜냐하면 저는 독일에 대혹원 언어학 프로그램이 들어가로 세개 언어 말할수있어요. 불행히 오년전에 제 TOPIK 봤어요. 그런데 너무 늙어요.

그렇지만 아마도 독일어 배우기전에 한국어 더 쉴게요~~
행운을 빌어용~~~ ^^

Today's Article

I read an article about a startup company that manufactures plastic from methane.

They feed methane to their special-made bacteria. The bacteria transform it into a biopolymer that is then sold to plastic producers. When their bioplastic finishes with its uses, it will biodegrade back into methane. They call it a closed-loop cradle-to-cradle process, which is patented. Even if this biodegradable plastic ends up in the ocean, it will be digested naturally by marine organisms.

The company is called Mango Materials. The CEO says she wanted to sound different. I feel like everything related to this company sounds brilliant.

ADVICE TO AN ENVIRONMENT PROJECT MANAGER

Dear Sir or Madam,

I am writing with regard to the advertisement published recently on the local newspaper, ‘City Daily’, which appeals to locals for help in your environment projects.

The issue that most concern me is the increasing trash on the street, especially in our downtown area. Since last year, our municipality has experienced a population boom due to sharply increasing immigrants. As a consequence, the local government is facing a tough challenge in maintaining public cleanliness.

Upon reading the advertisement posted, I believe that I could offer some help to you. First, my friends and I are more than willing to collect trash voluntarily on weekends. Besides, we could design and print some posters and flyers to educate people how to dispose of the waste correctly.

Though we can help to relieve the problem in a short term, local government should take further steps to solve the problem in the long run. Apparently, more government funds should be allocated to hire more full-time dustmen. And extra trash cans on the street would also be a good idea.

I look forward to receiving your response.
Yours faithfully,
John Smith

Could someone please take a look over this :(

Ce que l’auteur a écrit dans sa article est encore très relevante dans notre societé. Nous Hommes ont la tendance de nous allienons à les communautes. En effet, l’Homme pourrait vivre seulement aussi, mais comme il est un être social et politique, il a besoin d’une communauté pour être a meme de se réaliser. En outre, pas de humains veulent être exclu de la société, car il y a une grande difference entre d’état d’être seule et l’isolement completement. Pourtant, il ya aussi des desavantages d’être influencé beacoup de valeurs et normes d’autre personnes ou de la societé et d’ignorer les propres valuers, prolongé. On peut dire que notre liberté est aussi restreindu à cause du progrès technologique, l’example de Big Brother est bel et bien justifié dans ce cas, c’est une example très extreme mais on peut voir des paralles dans la vie des humains contemporains aussi: Par exemeple, de plus en plus sites Internet veulent acces à nos cookies pour nous présenter des publicités. Par exemple, j’ai cherché pour les proudits cosmetics sur l’Internet et j’ai rencontrer de la publicité à cosmetics sur chaque media sociale pour various semains.

오늘 출근하지 않았다

오늘 출근하지 않았는데 대신 병원에 갔다. 화요일에 일하다가 갑자기 어지러워졌고 쓰러질 뻔했다. 그래서 남편이 큰 병원에 얘약을 했고 나는 오늘 거기에 갔다. 오늘은 화요일에 생긴 증상이 없어서 의사 선생님은 그 때 무슨 일이었는지를 정확하게 알려주지 못했다. 나의 몸이 평소에 어떤지 알 수 있게 몇 주일 뒤에 내가 다시 병원에 가서 정보를 걷는 기계를 받을 것이다. 정확히 어떤 기계인지 잘 모르겠지만 받으면 바로 알려줄 것이다!

좋아하는 식사

저는 어제 가장 좋아하는 중의 한끼 먹었습니다. 이 식사 치킨과 감자입니다. 이렇게 준비합니다.
아침에 감자들을 자르고 전기 찜솥 안에 놓습니다. 그리고 치킨 놓아서 전기 찜솥을 켭니다. 저녁에 집에 저녁에 다 될 것입니다. 하루 종일 집에 가고 이 식사를 먹을 고대합니다.

Ein schwerer Tag

Heute war ein schwerer Tag. Ich hatte viel Arbeit, aber habe nicht viel getan. Meine Hauptaufgaben sind sehr absktrakt, dennoch es der Anfang des Jahrs ist und ich muss einen Jahrplan machen. Als mein Tag sehr schwierig war, heute schreibe ich nur bisschen.

Morgen möchte ich früh aufwachen und fahre vor meine Mitarbeiter nach Büro. Ich werde eine Checkliste mit zwei oder drei Aufgaben machen. Ich glaube, dass es auch einfacher sei wenn ich meine Idee zum Papier schreiben wird. Wenn etwas abstrakt ist, versuchte ich es greifbar machen, indem schreiben zum Papier.

Hoffentlich werde ich früher Schlüß machen!
