Crazy story...

Hey,there...

Last class my students from Inter 6 made up a story like Stand up comedy... They had to start with "I traveled to" and when I showed an object they must use it in the story. Let's see what we got:

I traveled to England with my father and my sister. We visited my uncle and my aunt. We were walking in the park when my sister found a ruler and she played with it. My mom didn't travel with us, because she lost the ticket. So she went in September. We went to Big Ben... (Larissa) It was a crazy experience, my parents loved that place. My sister bought a monkey and we went back to my uncle's house. My mother was preparing lunch for us, but my father wanted an egg, so my mom went to the supermarket to buy it. (Alcione) Then, after this wonderful trip, we decided to go to the beach in Brazil. In our lunch, at the beach, we decided to eat with a spoon, because it was easier. In the afternoon, we noticed that we forgot our toothbrushes in London and we decided to go shopping. After we bought them, we ate... (Vanessa) pizza with some friends and my friend Silvana gave me an Equequo, because I'm not lucky this year. After eating, we decided to do the dishes but there isn't a sponge. So we went back to the supermarket... (Eliel) and we bought it. But we didn't have much money, only some cents. But instead of buying a sponge we bought a yellow balloon. As we were so hungry we went to the supermarket again and we bought a green apple and we were so happy. (Elder)

Thanks dear students =)

See ya!!!

Kanji (Ideogramas)

Minasan konnichiwa!

Kyouwa tchotto kanji no ohanashiwo shimashou!


Os kanji ou ideogramas foram criados na China há mais de 3500 anos. No início, não passavam de desenhos que, com o tempo, foram esquematizados em imagens pictográficas até adquirem formatos atuais.

Há diversas teorias sobre como e quando os kanji foram introduzidos ao Japão. O mais provável é que os japoneses tenham conhecido os kanji, já evoluídos até os formatos atuais, por volta do século IV a V, e tenham adaptado para transcrever a sua língua, criando leituras próprias. Assim, um único kanji possui várias leituras.

O kanji considerado o campeão de leituras variadas é o “生” que significa “vida, nascimento, vigor, pureza”, podendo ser lido sei, shô, nama, ki, i(kiru), u(mareru), ha(eru), o(u). Como pode ser observado, os kanji além de serem símbolos gráficos com idéias, podem ser utilizados como representações fonéticas. Assim, poderemos brincar de escrever os nomes estrangeiros em kanji.


Por exemplo, “Mário” pode ser escrito 真理男 (lê-se 真=ma, 理=ri, 男=o) 真significa verdade, ,理 a razão ou lógica e , 男o homem, ou seja, homem lógico ou com a razão verdadeira. Ainda, “Miriam” pode se escrever 美理案(lê-se 美=mi, 理= ri, 案= an), 美significando beleza, ,理a razão ou lógica e,　案a idéia, ou seja, bonita com idéias lógicas.

Por se tratar de representação gráfica de idéias, existem milhares de kanji. Porém, como são combinações de dois ou mais caracteres básicos, se souber os caracteres básicos, não são letras tão difíceis. Por exemplo: os radicais que representam o elemento semântico do kanji, basicamente, são em torno de 250 ou pouco mais.

Exemplo de alguns radicais:

シ= significa água
Exemplo de alguns radicais

海mar　 湖lagoa　　池represa　　沼represa　　

木= significa árvore
Exemplo de alguns radicais

林bosque 　　森floresta 　　机escrivaninha 　　松pinheiro

心= significa sentimento, coração
Exemplo de alguns radicais

恋amor 　　悪maldade 　　恩gratidão 　　恥vergonha

Omoshiroidesho!

The Lion King is back !!!

A young lion prince is born in Africa, thus making his uncle Scar the second in line to the throne. Scar plots with the hyenas to kill King Mufasa and Prince Simba, thus making himself King. The King is killed and Simba is led to believe by Scar that it was his fault, and so flees the kingdom in shame.
