#8 Short Film: Night On Earth – Paris

▶️ Here’s one sequence of the movie “Night on Earth” from 1991. The movie is about weird, nocturnal (=in the night) encounters (=sb meeting sb) between taxi drivers and their customers in different cities.

🔤 The film is in 🇫🇷French with English subtitles.

#120 Our favourite mistakes: Grammar

▶️ Please translate the following sentence:
Armiyaga borganingizda, vazn yo'qotishingiz mumkin.

Perhaps you think it is:
When you go to army you may lose your weight.

Well, it should be:
When you go to the army you may lose weight.

Why?

❗️ Like the government, we can assume that there is only one army in one country. That’s why we should use the definite article the before army.

❗️ Lose your weight sounds like you’re losing all of it. That wouldn’t be good. You can either lose some weight or just lose weight, without the determiner.

#82 Afandi Quiz: Cultural Misunderstanding

Today’s quiz is about a cultural misunderstanding in the following situation:

▶️ Chris from 🇳🇿New Zealand has been living as an expat (=Westerner working in a non-Western country) in 🇯🇵Japan for two years now. He used to work for an American company but recently joined a Japanese firm. His foreign friends warned him that it wouldn’t be easy for him. His Japanese boss and colleagues seem kind to him and praise him when he works extra hours but he still doesn’t feel like he’s part of the team.
