主人公の話

異世界のような話を読むと、主人公は知らない所へ行って、知らない人と話して、まるでその異世界は別に特別な世界ではない。でも、私は異世界で生まれたら、世界の知恵を調べながら、危ないことを全力で避けるのは良識だと思います。
それなのに、そんな本がいっぱいあるので、普通かな?その本を読む理由は素晴らしい旅を読むのは分かりますが、どちらかというと面白い事情になってしまいます。もし主人公はすばしっこい人なら、自信を持てすぎて、何があっても、「俺なら倒せる!」と言います。もし主人公は遅い人なら、練習するのより、厳しい団体に入って、難しい依頼していてしまいます。
その理由のせいで、時々私は共感とか理解とかができません~
皆さんはどう思いますか?

時間の価値

時間の価値を味わったらいいだけど、最近時間をのたのた過ごしている感じがある。一方、二年前の私より今は趣味を深く楽しんでいる。以前、仕事が終わる後家に帰ってビデオゲームをやって、携帯でスクロールしていた習慣があった。現在ビデオゲームの上に編み物、販売、読書するのを大好きだ。そして私には暇な時間は大切だと思う。
さらに、将来での残り時間に関してよく考えている。それは悲しそうだけど、死ぬことではなく、それより「三十歳になるまで何をしたらいい?」のような質問だ。子供の頃から何とかスポーツをやったり仲間のグループにいたりことがしたいだ。しかし実際に、時々ヨガをするしかスポーツをやらなく、友達のメッセージに返信するのをよく忘れてしまう。フルタイムに働いている人は、「趣味をするし友達と喋るより、暇な時間で体や心を癒す方がいい」と思われるかもしれない。但し、幸いなことに残り時間がまだたくさんある。様々な活動が試したいだと思う。人生が一つしかないだから。

British understatement

During the Korean War, a tragic misinterpretation of the word "sticky" led to a significant loss of life among British troops. In 1951, the 650 men of the British Gloucestershire Regiment found themselves heavily outnumbered, fighting against 10,000 Chinese soldiers at the Imjin River.
​Despite facing overwhelming odds, when an allied American general asked, "How are the Gloucesters doing?", the British commanding officer simply replied, "A bit sticky, things are pretty sticky down there."
​To the British, this was a classic understatement meaning, "We are in a completely dire situation." However, the American general took it to mean, "Things are a little tough, but it's not that bad." As a result, the Americans didn't send any reinforcements.
​Although the Gloucesters fought valiantly, around 500 British soldiers were ultimately killed or taken prisoner. This tragedy occurred all because the British general used an understated expression—"sticky"—that the Americans completely misunderstood.

Although it was a day nothing happened, dishes were yummy! w

Today, it was a day nothing special. Only I did were watching YouTube and doing weight training. It was a very boring day, but diets were yummy! I ate a steamed bread for breakfast, a chicken set meal for lunch, and cheese rice gratin. I cooked all of them! I don't know why meals made by myself are delicious like that. Although today dairy entry is as short as yesterday one, I'll finish writing it because I am very sleepy...

Hello

Hi, I haven't had the time to write these past weeks, and honestly my mind forgot to begin. I think it's complicated to study the language as well as the law degree, to be a mom and work. Well, I might be wrong. My routine usually starts at 5:00 AM and ends 9:00 PM or 10: 00 PM. I usually rest on Sundays; the rest of the days I try to get everything done. Maybe it is not as complicated as I see it. Even so, thank you for your corrections, have a good day everyone.

Gestern bin ich zum Theater gegangen. Es war nicht real Theater, es war eine Schauspiel von alte Frauen die in diese Stadt seit viele Jahre wohne.
Sie schilderten seine Erinnerungen, als unseren Stadt viele anderse war. Leute waren viel armer, aber es war eine großer Gemeinschaftsgefühl. Ich mag meine Zeit lieber.

On Reevaluating Worldviews

When I was younger, I used to be an ardent believer in capitalism. I believed that it was the system that brought the most prosperity to humanity. I was convinced that the invisible hand of the market fairly distributed wealth among all sectors of society. I thought that poverty was born out of generations of poor decisions and laziness. But then, cracks began to appear in my former mindset after I discovered that corporations account for most of the pollution on the planet. I was shocked that the prevailing supply chains and the life cycle of commodities led to so much waste and inhumane working conditions. This started a rabbit hole of research into the systemic inequalities inherent in the current system. I found out that the average employee's wages and labor aren't commensurate with the amount of profit they bring to their companies. My laissez-faire assumption that corporate profits will trickle down to the masses was shattered by the realities on the ground. It turned out that corporations are primarily profit-driven and will do whatever it takes to maximize said profit, even if it means exploiting their employees and consumers. For capitalism to work, it requires an underclass who have no choice but to be paid peanuts. Thus, it is in their best interests to pursue policies that ensure a steady supply of cheap and compliant workforce.


It was an eye-opening experience to say the least. I felt uncomfortable and disturbed throughout the whole process since it led to painful realizations. I had to confront the fact that I was sorely mistaken and naive in my earlier convictions. However, it was necessary. It made me realize that we have to confront and interrogate the contradictions that exist in our society. We have to be critical of not only the status quo, but also ourselves in order to grow. I do not regret this experience one bit and would gladly relive it.

Ma femme et moi, nous avons visité Munich récemment.
Notre hôtel était très près d'une station de métro
L'hôtel était près de la place centrale du vieux Munich.
Nous nous avons flâné dans la vieille ville.
Nous nous sommes promenés le long des boulevards de Munich.
Nous nous sommes tellement amusés que nous ne voulions pas rentrer.

Türkçedeki en zor şey

Söylemezdim ki Türkçe çok zor (neticede dil çok muntazam) ama Türkçe dilin yapı mantığı anadilimin mantığından çok farklıydır (aslında bazen tam ters mantık var). Genel sözdizimi, ekler, ilişkili cümleler, fiiler, her şey farklı. Kelimelerin çoğu Farsçadan, Arapçadan ve elbette Türk köklerinden geldi.

O farklı sözdizimi yüzünden Türkçe bir cümle duyuğumda/okuduğumda, bunu anlamak için beyinimin zamanı ihtiyacı var. Cümledeki her elemanın görevi anlamak için bu elemanları aklımda bölmek zorundayım.

Sanırım Hint-Avrupa dillerini öğrenen Türklerin aynı sorunları var. Bu doğru, herhangi bir dilin öğrenmesinde bu sorunlar görülür fakat kimse diğer bir aileden bir dili öğrendiğinda, farkla çok açık olur. Belki bir gün Türkçe’yi nefes almak kadar doğal anlayacağım!

今日、音楽について書きたいと思う。私は音楽が大好きだ。歌詞の意味が分からなってもまだ聞いて楽しんでるよ。話せない言語の音楽ではケイポップやジェイポップ、スペイン語の音楽を聞いてる。スペイン語の音楽には韓国語の音楽の「ケイポップ」みたいな短い呼び方があるかな?知らない…とにかく、私はフランス語と英語の音楽も聞いてる。小学生と中学生時代時々フランス語の曲をクラスで歌っていたので今でもたくさんの曲を知ってる。

Roxane (2019)

En Australie, on a deux diffuseurs publics : l’ABC, qui diffuse des nouvelles, des films et des séries australiens, et le SBS, qui diffuse des nouvelles, des films et des séries internationaux. On peut regarder ces programmes gratuitement à la télé ou en ligne. Alors, j’utilise parfois le SBS pour regarder des films en français, pour pratiquer ma compréhension orale. Aujourd’hui j’ai regardé le film « Roxane ». C’est une comédie française sortie en 2019. Il s'agit d'un producteur d'œufs qui doit sauver sa ferme en utilisant le réseau social. Au début du film, on rencontre Raymond, qui est un fermier à Corlay, en Bretagne. On voit que Raymond aime beaucoup la pièce « Cyrano de Bergerac ». Chaque matin, il lit un passage de la pièce à ses poules. Il a aussi une poule qui est son animal de compagnie, nommé Roxane. Elle est une poule blanche, tandis que toutes ses poules pondeuses sont brunes. Elle est donc vraiment reconnaissable parmi les autres poules ! Quand Raymond va à la réunion de la coopérative des producteurs d'œufs, il apprend qu’ils ne vont pas continuer à acheter ses œufs bio. Ils veulent des œufs produits en masse, des poules en cage. D’abord, Raymond est vraiment triste. Ensuite, il décide de sauver sa ferme par les vidéos sur YouTube. Il vise à « faire le buzz » (ses mots), en jouant des scènes de « Cyrano de Bergerac ». Il recrute sa voisine anglaise (pour moi, c'était une belle surprise pour être capable d’identifier son accent tout de suite : j'espère que cela signifie que ma compréhension s'améliore). Elle est professeur de théâtre, et elle lui enseigne tous les meilleurs écrivains français hormis Rostand, comme Molière et d’autres. C’est une histoire réconfortante et douce, et j’ai apprécié.

The Essential Structure of Chinese: Mastering SVO

(In the previous previous post, I received a lot of help. So, I would like to write something useful to give back to this friendly community.)

Having corrected Chinese articles on LangCorrect for several years, I've noticed a very common and serious issue: even among learners who have been writing consistently, many sentences are often confusing or unclear.

The root of the problem is usually not a lack of vocabulary, but a misunderstanding of the core skeleton of Chinese grammar—the Subject-Verb-Object (SVO) structure.

So, what is SVO?

Chinese sentence structure is actually very logical. In the vast majority of cases, it follows a simple formula: Subject + Verb + Object.
Subject (主语): The main character of the sentence. It answers "Who?"
Verb (谓语): The action taken by the subject. It answers "Does what?"
Object (宾语): The receiver of the action. It answers "To what?"

Here is the simplest example:
我 (Subject) 吃 (Verb) 苹果 (Object).
(I eat apples.)

As you can see, the basic order is the same as in English. If you can identify these three elements correctly, your sentence is already 90% there!

Next time you write a Chinese sentence, try this "subtraction method": Ignore the time (yesterday, tomorrow) and place (at school, at home) for a moment.
First, write down the core skeleton: Who + Does + What -- just like English.
Then, insert the time and place (usually before the verb or at the very beginning of the sentence)-- not like English anymore!!!

For example, if you want to say, "Yesterday I ran happily in the park for a while," start with the skeleton: 我跑步 (I run). Then, build the rest of the sentence around it(我昨天在公园里愉快地跑了一会儿步).

日本人に質問

私は日本へ行った時、バーに行って会話をし始めるように知らない人に「今日は暑いですね」などを言ってもいいですか?旅行の間に色々な人と日本語で話したいけど、急に会話を始める方法が分かりません。オーストラリアでこんな方法(「そのカクテルは美味しいですか?」「あなたの服が好きです!」など) は普通だけど、色々な国は別々の庶民感覚がありますね。

良くなかったら、何をして良いですか?

🍽️摂食は面倒

お題:もし一週間食事をしなくてもよくなる薬が発明されて、あなたはこの薬を買いますか?

一週間の食事代より安いならもちろん。

自分にとって、食べることは極めて手間がかかります。まず、食事を決める際には栄養のバランスだの、お店の営業時間だの、コスパだの、諸々を考えないといけません。

そして、摂食自体も、食べ物を口にして咀嚼するという地味な工程を繰り返します。さらに、食後は体が動きにくくなりがちなのに、片付けをしないといけないのがとても面倒くさいです。

以上の理由に加えて、自分はあまり食事から楽しみを得る人ではないので、大人になるにつれて食事に徐々に抵抗が生まれ、抜けがちになってしまいました。栄養は一応考えていますが、カロリー不足はやはり健康に悪いですね。もし食事をしなくてもいい方法があるなら、試してみたいです。

Jakob Ⅰ. 5

Zunächst ist das Schreiben von römischen Ziffern extrem mühsam, daher schreibe ich sie als arabische Zahlen.
Die Eltern von Jakob 1 waren beide Nachkommen von Heinrich 7. Sein Vater, Lord Darnley war Sohn von Margaret Douglas, die eine Enkelin von Heinrich 7 und eine Nichte von Heinrich 8 war. Seine Mutter, Maria Stuart war Enkelin von Margaret Tudor, die eine Tochter von Heinrich 7 und eine Schwester von Heinrich 8 war.
Die Zwei hatten eine gemeinsame Großmutter, und Marias Vater und die Mutter von Lord Darnley waren Halbgeschwistern.

娘「手伝えるよ。」
父「ううん、自分できるんだ。」
娘「助けいらなくていいの?父さん呼んでいる時、私がいるだけできるよ。どんな電話のボタンを押したらいいのか教えるよ。」
父「いらない。」

質問:娘が父に話す時には、常体か敬体で話しますか?娘の歳によりますか?息子は違いますか?

Le climatiseur et l'arbe

J'habites dans un apartment sur le troisième étage où j'ai deux fenêtres en face de la rue. Je garde mon climatiseur dans une fenêtre toute l'année et les oiseaux ont fait un nid, donc j'ai peur que je vais leur faire du mal si je le sortir. En dessus le climatiseur, je peux voir un grand arbre lors qu'il pousse les nouvelles feuilles après l'hiver. À côté du premiere fenêtre, je vois un autre bâtiment qu'il a des étapes qu'ils sont parfait pour s'asseoir dans l'été avec une glace et une amie.

Si je pourrais choisir un pouvoir magique, je serais prendre des temps d'en décider. J'aime bien l'idée d'invisibilité mais je pense que je manquerais des moments spontaneous avec d'autres personnes. Je n'aime pas la capacité de voler parce que j'ai peur d'hauteurs. Parfois le concept de lire des mentales est intéressant, mais je pense qu'il serait bruyant et on entendrait les choses negative.
