2021-04 Challenge Day 07
Se pode dizer, melhor um pássaro na mão do que dois voando. É um modo conservador de pensar. Penso em uma pessoa que quer ganhar um posto muito melhor em outra empresa, ele mesmo sai do trabalho atual, logo não ganha o posto, quer voltar ao trabalho anterior, mas a empresa já contratou outra pessoa. Você pode pensar em outro exemplo?

עברתי אי פעם שיעור שפה עם מורה פרטי?
עברתי כמה שיעורי עברית עם מורה פרטי. בשיעור הראשון אנכנו הכרנו זה עם זה והוא גילה את רמת היכולת שלי בעברית. הוא שאל אותי מה המטרות שלי ואמרתי שאני רוצה לדבר עם המשפחה של בן זוג בתי. אני נזכרת שבכיתי בגלל שאני כל כך מתוסכלת על כך שלא יכולתי להביע עצמי.
אחרי שהשלמנו ארבעה או חמישה שיעורים אז המורה סיפר לי שאני לא הייתי זקוקה לו, שאני פשוט הייתי זקוקה להתאמן לדבר. מאותו הזמן יש לי שיחה שבועית בווטסאפ עם אמא של בן זוג בתי ואין לי היה עוד שיעורים עם המורה.

Woher kommst du?
Ein Bekannter von mir, der in Deutschland wohnt, seit er 5 Jahre alt war, hat heute mir gesagt, dass er Heimweh hat. Seine Heimat liegt nicht so weit weg von Deutschland, aber ich glaube, dass er sie in der letzten Zeit wegen Corona nicht besuchten konnte. Als ich ihn gefragt habe, was er in seiner Heimat vermisst, hat er mir gesagt: "Meine Familie, meine Freunde, meiner Muttersprache mit allen zu sprechen und nicht gefragt zu werden, woher ich komme."
Er ist etwa 22 Jahre alt und spricht Deutsch einwandfrei und ohne Akzent. Ich weiß nicht, warum er oft diese Frage bekommt. Vielleicht wegen seines Namen, der nicht "deutsch" klingen mag. Das ist aber auch nicht wichtig, weil es ihn grundsätzlich stört, egal der Grund. Ich muss zugeben, dass ich auch oft Menschen frage, woher sie kommen. Aber nicht, weil ich sagen will "Aha! Ich weiß, dass du Ausländer bist!", sondern weil ich großes Interesse an Sprachen, Ländern und deren Kultur habe. Ich muss aber vorsichtig sein, weil ich weiß, dass es ein schwieriges Thema ist.
Das Interessante für mich ist, dass er Deutsch so gut sprechen kann, dass ich denken würde, dass es den Deutschen egal wäre, woher er kommt. Aber vielleicht fragen die Menschen ihn danach auch nur aus Neugier, ohne voreingenommen zu sein. Ich zum Beispiel bin Brasilianer und spreche Deutsch (und alle meine andere Fremdsprachen) mit einem sehr starken brasilianischen Akzent. Deshalb würde es mich nicht stören, wenn ich in Deutschland wäre und gefragt werden würde, woher ich komme. Aber ich kann nachvollziehen, dass es einem sehr stören kann, wenn man jahrelang in diesem Land wohnt, wie der Fall bei ihm ist.
Hat dir schon mal eine Freundin oder ein Freund von so einem Gefühl erzählt?"

Read it doesn't mean speak it
Although I can understand pretty well English texts, it's really hard for me speak it or write it.
Today my boyfriend needed help with an English text to know how to use a program. I wasn't sure of my skills, but it turned out fine.
I was impressed of myself, I've the expectation of do it terrible.
In a scale from 1 to the 5, my skill to read is maybe 2, 3 with luck. But if we talk about how do I speak, it's a terrible 1. My pronunciation is clumsy but I get it sometimes with simple sentences, for example "Hi, how are you?. What do you think about the food?. I feel so uncomfortable hearing "that person" talking so rude. Your English is pretty well, I'm sure you can do it better"
Despite this, my skill to write is less than 1. It's like my brain collapse saying "I'm out, good luck".
As a future psychologist I understand that we use different areas of our brain to do different things. So I need to "exercise" this part to get the habit and do it naturally.
I talk about this because I feel insecure. Every time I write something I have a bad feeling. It's like someone screaming "I'm scared! I'm not sure!"a thousand times.
People is nice here, no one laughs. But I can't delete that feeling from my head. Talk about it is a good way to share something in a healthy way, get out the feelings and reflect about it.
Why do I want to be psychologist? Because a psychologist changed my life. She did it in the worst moment. And I want to do it too. I want to help someone as she.
Why do I want it if I have mental problems? Because I can understand some things. I said to myself many times "No ones understand it!", but if someone say it to me, I'll say "I understand what are you saying, it's terrible but you can do it". Cheer up people when it's hard cheer up myself. I can put a happy smile and a sweet calm voice, just for it. But inside I'm broken, working on it, but suffering.
Sometimes people say that I talk about it "to be a poor victim. A poor glass child trying to call the attention". But I don't. I want people know and understand how is it. That they can remember and reflect about mental problems, recognize it and understand that isn't normal or okay treat that way a child or other people.
This is a safe space where I can post something and learn at the same time. It's like a open journal maybe. So, I can write what I want to, this freedom is nice.

Lliçons de llengua
Al Canadà, tots els estudiants del primari i l’institut hem de prendre cursos de francès, fins al novè any. Després, podem escollir seguir estudiant o no. Jo vaig decidir continuar fins l’últim any, o el dotzè. En aquestes classes de francès, aprenem vocabulari, com conjugar verbs en temps differents, com escriure cartes, etc. Esclar, el nivell de difficultat depèn de l’edat dels estudiants. També vaig prendre un curs bàsic de castella a l’universitat, començant amb “Me llamo Mitchell” fins al subjuntiu al present. Però a més d’aquests cursos en medi acadèmic, mai he après una llengua d’un mestre com l’únic estudiant.
D’altra banda, he sigut professor a un altre estudiant! A l’institut, feia part del club de francès a la meva escola, un grup que promou el francès a tots els estudiants. Després dels classes, em quedava a la biblioteca amb estudiants que necessitaven ajuda amb els deures de francès o havien d’estudiar per un exàmen. Guanyava deu dòlars a l’hora (en monedes, sense impost!). Ja no ho faig, però a vegades penso que hauria començar de nou. És una bona manera de guanyar una mica de diners a sobre.

Problem of my life
I start this job one year ago.
It is a shift job working in weekly based.
The morning and afternoon shift is excellent.
Morning shift finish at 15:00.
There so many thing you can do if your work finish at such time.
Especially, compare to 9-5 working class and not to mention regular working late.
Afternoon shift start 15:00pm
That also means you have the whole morning to do things you want.
Night shift (23:00-07:00) is the problem!
Even you have nothing to do in night shift.
You will tried and exhausted.
Even the whole day belongs to you all you can do is just rest.

New Zealand and Canada
As you know, English is an official language in many countries. I've ever been to Singapore, Indonesia, and New Zealand. My best destination was New Zealand, where I enjoyed driving through beautiful scenery and sophisticated cities. the country is as safe as Japan enough that we could go stargazing at midnight. I will visit there again if the pandemic is over.
New Zealand and Canada are thought to be suitable places for studying overseas. It's primary because the countries are safety. However, I don't know much about Canada other than affordable programs for learning English, aurora, and maple syrup. Someday, I'd like to see aurora in Canada.

Rhycce - Challenge Day 7 - Has tomado una lección de lengua?
Sí, yo he tomado unas lecciones de idiomas. Empecé con lecciones en línea, pero no fueron muy efectiva. Entonces, me inscribí en una escuela de idiomas. Empecé en el nivel básico. Las clases fueron muy útiles y practiqué hablar y escuchar en español. Las lecciones fueron estructuradas y más a fondos. Además, fue mucha más fácil de aprender una lengua cuando practicando con amigos.
Yo tuve un maestro muy simpático. Siempre hablaba en español en la clase pero hablaba lentamente, así que pudimos entender. Tuve muchas preguntas para el y siempre me respondió. Me gusté mi maestra mucho y espero tomar clases con el otra vez.

Meine Meinung über eine Geschichte, die ich gelesen habe
Zuerst war Herr Bohnemann sehr ärgerlich am Telefon, aber wir wissen nicht der Grund. Es scheint, dass jemand nicht wollte tun, etwas, dass Herr Bohnemann gebraucht hat. Danach hat jemand an seiner Tür geklinget und es war ein Pizzabote. Herr Bohnemann hat sich sehr unhöflich verhalten und sagte, dass er niemals an der Tür etwas kauft und dann hat die Tür zugemacht. Er glaubte, dass der Pizzabote ein Verkäufer war. Der Pizzabote hat noch einmal an die Tür geklopft und Herr Bohnemann hat die Tür mit Schreien aufgemacht aber der Pizzabote hat sofort gesagt, dass er nur eine Pizza liefern will, eine Pizza, die Herr Bohnemann bestellt hat. Her Bohnemann hat bemerkt, was er getan hat, und bat der Pizzabotte um hereinzukommen. Aber er hat sich bei dem Pizzabote nicht entschuldigt...
Danach hat er mit einem großen Schein bezahlt: zweihundert Euro! Der Pizzabote hat nicht genug Wechselgeld und wusste nicht, was er machen sollte. Herr Bohnemann hat ihm gesagt, dass ihm etwas einfällt. Der Pizzabote könnte ein Päckchen von Herr Bohneman zu einer Addresse liefern und danach den Rest vom Geld behalten. Zuerst hat er zugestimmt und war sehr aufgeregt, um mehr Geld zu bekommen. Als er die Treppe runtergekommen ist, hat er sich mit einer Nachbarin von Herr Bohneman getroffen und wir wissen nicht genau, was sie zum Pizzabote sagte, aber ich glaube, dass es nicht eine gute Sache war. Dann ist der Pizzabotte zurückgekommen und an der Herr Bohnemanns Tür noch einmal geklingelt. Er sagte ihm, dass ihre Nachbarin den Schein gewechselt hat, und dass er nicht diese Ablieferung machen wird. Der Pizzabote hat ihm das Päckchen, das Wechselgeld und die Adresse zurückgegeben. Und meiner Meinung nach war dies das Beste. Wir wissen nicht genau, was im Päckchen war, und es könnte eine Gefahr zu dem Pizzabote sein. Wenn im Inneren des Päckchens etwas nicht so gut wäre, könnte der Pizzabotte viele Konsequenzen bekommen.

Los cactus
Cuando pienso en los cactus, siempre vienen a la cabeza los desiertos. Sin embargo, aunque es verdad se pueden encontrar en los desiertos, la realidad es una poca más compleja. Primeramente, un "desierto" es realmente una categoría muy diversa. Por ejemplo, el Antártico se clasifica como un desierto, pero dudo que haya cactus ahí. Lo segundo es que no hay solo una especie de cactus, sino más de dos cientos tipos distintos. Además, son nativos de muchos lugares diferentes desde las Américas hasta África y Asia. Así que, aunque sea correcto decir que los cactus viven en los desiertos, solo es una parte de la verdad.
Dos oraciones con "a ver".
1. A ver... ¿cuál me hace más bella?
2. A ver si habrá una tormenta esta noche.

Sentences 071: Clutching, At A Crossroads, Rock & Hard Place
When I slipped on the banana peel, I tried to clutch the wooden post but missed it and dropped.
I was at a crossroads when I got two job offers at the same time.
I either leave the job or get fired – I feel like I'm caught between a rock and a hard place.

Language lessons are not my cup of tea
It's been a while since I was at a typical English lesson. I've been taught a lot of times, especially at school and high school. Besides, I was attending an English academy when I wanted to get the First Certificate. That's why I can speak my mind and tell you that I don't think there isn't so much you can learn that way.
What's the problem? There is communication and it can be useful, but it's kind of fake because memorizing grammar and listening to someone who pronounces to make themselves understood is not going to improve your language skills for real.
In my opinion, the best you can do to get better is to practice in genuine situations. If you want to get better at writing, write; if you want to get better at speaking, speak, and so on. That's the reason I've tried to be in touch with my English by talking with native speakers. I am lucky to live in a tourist city, which also has a great University, so it hasn't been difficult to find people to talk to. At least, it wasn't until Covid took over:( Last year my English experience consisted in watching TV Shows and movies in original version.
I'm happy Langcorrect is a thing so I can try and use my writing for something more authentic than an English textbook exercise. Thank you all!:)

7/30 Lezioni
Le uniche lezioni che ho preso sono quelle a scuola di inglese. Non ho però mai preso lezioni d'italiano. L'ho studiato dal Duolingo, e penso che sia per questo che a volte ho dubbi con la grammatica. A volte cerco le risposte su internet, ma tante volte non è sufficiente, ho comprato un paio di libri, e sinceramente mi stanno aiutando. Quindi la risposta a questa a domanda è: sì per l'inglese, non per l'italiano

Ending of Attack on Titan (no spoilers)
I think Isayama is trolling us.
The leaks dropped like a bomb. I couldn't belive to first leaks. I thought like that the manga is ending so they are trolling us. But Korean panels were came up and they have the same context. I am in an utterly big shock and consternation after saw them although I am not that invested this manga. It should be really bad for people who invested in story all those years.

The Shuangqing Bay Park
Last night, I went to Shuangqing Bay Park in the rain. It's been a long while since the last time I was there, and the views changed a lot. I went there in daylight before, and never in the night, so the night view is very new to me. The first thing that surprised me was the Fuyang science and technology museum. It changed its colors and patterns in the night, and one of those patterns that impressed me the most was a pattern that looked pretty like the night sky, deep and wide. The Grand Theater was already completely built, and it was hyaline. It was composed of several oval parts, and each part with different colors of light and the colors continue to change. These two buildings were built in the park. Apart from this, there are many real estate buildings around the park. To its southwest is Anhui Zhidi, to its northeast is Lifeng Group. These two buildings were light in the night, especially the Lifeng Group. They changed many patterns and the colors were very bright. To the lake's right south, were two over 240 meters tall buildings built by China Resources, and they were almost done, which were also the landmark of Fuyang at present. Because of the rain, there were fewer people in the park, so it was very quiet. The air was really fresh and the environment was clean and tidy. It brought me very nice feelings. I took a walk surrounding the park and the total trip was about 2 kilometers. After that, I drove home. I think I had a really nice night.

Por qué me gusta BoJack Horseman
Es difícil elegir una serie o película que me gusta más que las otras, pero una serie que se destaca es BoJack Horseman. Es una serie de animación sobre un antiguo actor de los 90s que ahora es depresivo, alcohólico y malogra a todas sus relaciones. Durante la serie, tiene que aprender a poner a los otros por encima de él mismo, luchar contra sus recuerdos traumáticos y comenzar a amar a la vida. En mi opinión, la escritura de la serie es brillante: es llena de personajes absurdos pero amables, el humor es muy bueno y la representación de la depresión es muy justa y profunda. No es una serie a mirar para sentirse desenfadado: para mi, ella despierta muchos sentimientos y recuerdos de cuando me sentía cómo el protagonista. Pero es una serie magnifica que recomiendo a todos.

語学授業
中学校の時から、語学の授業がありました。フランスの中学生は、二つの言語を勉強します。普通に、英語と他の言語です。学校の大半はドイツ語とスペイン語ですが、様々な言語があります。私は英語とドイツ語を勉強してたけど、ドイツ語が話せません。高校生だった時に、日本語の独学をしてたから教師がいませんでした。卒業試験は日本語の高等を無所属候補として参加しました。(レベルはやくN５・N4だけだった。) １００点が出来ました！
大学一年生、初めて日本語の授業があって、とても嬉しくて不安でした。私のクラスは、とても優しいハーフの同級生が日本語も勉強してたので、一緒に日本語の教室を探しました。私たちは日本語を勉強しているクラスの二人だけでした。先生の話し方は早かったから、怖かったけど、急に慣れました。独学と違い、「日本語を話せます」と思ってきました。
二年間同じ先生で授業がありました。先生もとても優しいし、私に春休みの前本を貸してくれました！来年、学校を変わるので、先生も変わるから悲しいです。
今日は、長いテキストを書き時間があまりなかったから悔しいけどしょうがない！おやすみなさい。

दिन सात: हिंदी से नफरत करने से हिंदी बहुत पसंद करने तक
जब मैं अपनी विश्विविधलाय की पड़ाई शरू की तब मैंने पहली बार हिंदी की कक्षाएँ ले दी थीं । मुझे उन कक्षाएँ अच्छी नहीं लगती थीं । मेरे लिए उन कक्षाएं इतनी खराब थीं कि मैं सच में हिंदी से नफरत करने लगी । उस एक बहुत बुरी बात थी । शायद आपको याद हो कि मैंने दूसरे जर्नल में लिखा कि मुझे अपने हिंदी का अध्यापाक पसंद नहीं था । उसने हमेशा कहता रहा था कि मैं एक अच्छी छात्र नहीं थी लेकिन असल में मेरे लिए वह एक बुरा अध्यापाक था । मैंने यह पता चला जब मैं पहली बार भारत गयी । वहाँ मैंने छह हफ़्ते के लिए The Landour Language School में हिंदी पढ़ी । यह एक प्रसिध स्कूल है, जो लण्ढोर में है । लण्ढोर भारत के उत्तराखण्ड राज्य के देहरादून ज़िले में स्थित एक नगर है । स्कूल में सब अध्यापिका और अध्यापाक बहुत अच्छे थे । उनकी वजह से मुझे एक बार फिर हिंदी सीखना अच्छी लगी । उन्होंने मेरे लिए एक महत्वपूर्ण द्वार खुला रखा था । मुझे आशा है कि मैं एक दिन जल्दी ही वहाँ वापस आऊँगी ।
आजकल हर हफ़्ते गुरुवार को दोपहर में मैं अपने हिंदी की अध्यापाक के साथ मिलती हूँ । मुझे जयबोध जी अच्छे लगते हैं । वे हमेशा समय पर हैं । हर कक्षा दिलचस्प होती है । और धीरे-धीरे मेरी हिंदी बेहतर हो रही है । काश मेरा पहला अध्यापाक जयबोध जी जैसा होता था ।

Most Popular Dishes in Jordan: Part Two!
Writing Challenge: Day 7
Wednesday, April 7th, 2021
2. Maqlubah:
Literally means upside down. It's not uncommon that my foreigner friends contact me after they leave Jordan to ask about the recipe of maqlubah, especially the one that they had in my house. This healthy meal consist of layers of rice, chicken, potato, eggplant and cauliflower. After it's done cooking, you put a tray on the pot and flip it upside down, hence the name "maqlubah". The final result looks like a well-made cake, and eaten with some cold yogurt or green salad. Other versions of maqlubah include rice, chicken and fresh broad beans. Some even prefer maqlubah with lamb meat instead of chicken.
https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Maqluba
3. Mah-shi (Stuffed):
Dolma as the world knows it is simply called Mah-shi in Jordan. Mahshi literally means stuffed, be it stuffed grape leaves, zucchini, eggplants, pumpkin, you name it! The stuffing is usually 75% rice, 25% meat and the meal is served hot. There is another vegetarian version of Mahshi called "Yalanji" where only grape leaves are stuffed with rice and vegetables. Potato slices are cooked in the same pot too, and the meal is mostly served cold.
