ブログについて

今学きの日本語のクラスはとてもたのしかった。たくさんしゅくだいがありましたが、私はたくさんならったと思います。だから、よかったです。

ิีブログも楽しかったと思います。でも時々、日本語のしゅくだいがたくさんあって、
時間がありませんでしたから、ブログはちょっと大変だったと思います。何も書きたくありませんでしたから。

でも、つれているの時　みなさんのブログを見て、気分がよくなりました。それから、みなさんの気分をＳｈａｒｅをしてもいいですから、とてもいいと思います。

みなさん、がんばって！

今週の日本語のクラスはとてもいぞかしいですね。十二のＣｈａｐｔｅｒ　のぶんぽはとてもむずがしいと思います。私はあまりわかりません、でも日本語を上手になりたいので、がんばります。　

みなさんは来学き日本語のクラスをとるつもりですか。私はつもりなんですが、まだきめていません。来学期の日本語のクラスは　Ｃａｕｔｈｅｎ　にありますね。私のアパートのそばにありませんから、ちょっと大変だと思います。

Speech File Upload!!!!!

Hey guys,

I just noticed (and learned from Julie) that home directory will not allow you to access a WMA file. I'm not sure why because it was still working a few days ago when I first upload my speech. Maybe it's some crazy security issue. Anyway, if you want to host your speech file on your home directory, you will need to convert the file into an MP3 format.

I found a software that will do the job pretty easily. It's free and it's easy to use.

Good luck Mina-san !!!

私のスピーチ

Speech File

I was so nervous when I did the speech. I forgot my lines twice and had to look down at my paper *sad* but over all I think it went well. I thought my fluency was fluctuating. Like in the beginning, I spoke pretty fast and fluently but toward the end, I kind of got stuck with some of the particles and my fluency dropped. I also learned that it's not a good idea to memorize one sentence after another (like remembering the ordering of the sentences) because if I couldn't remember a sentence, it's really difficult for me to go on to the next. Instead, I think it's better to remember the sequences of events that happens in the speech so that even if you forget a line, you can still remember what it's about a make up a sentence that conveys the same meaning. That's what I'm going to do next time.

How to post music/ speech audio file on your blog

Sensei asked me to show you guys how to do this cus you'll need it later when you post your speech audio file onto your blog.

There's two to do this (that I know how):

1. Put a flash media player on your blog (just like mine) so the audio files will play automatically when someone visits your blog.

2. Upload your file onto the school home directory and post the link on your blog.
Note: You file will not play automatically but people will have to download the file first in order to listen to it.

-----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

Method 1.

a. First you need to find a place to host your audio file. The best way to do this for us is to use the UVA home directory.

How to upload your file to the UVA directory
follow the picture :)

1. Click on the home directory icon on your desktop.
2. Type your UVA computing ID after the "\"
3. Type your UVA password (the one you use to check mails, etc.)
4. Click Map Drive Letter. * if the drive is in use, choose another drive.
5. Drag and drop the file into the "public_html" folder.
6. The url for your file will be:

http://people.virginia.edu/~yourcomputingid/filename

Example: mine could be http://people.virginia.edu/~ps5zf/speech01.mp3

b. To play music/audio file directly on your blog, you will need a flash media player. There are many out there that you can use, but the one I use is

http://www.spacelayouts.net/flashmp3player

c. The rest is pretty simple

1. Type in the URL of your audio file that we just created from part a-6

2. Type in the Title of your audio file. *Note: for this particular flash player, you can only use English names. So don't name the file in Japanese otherwise it won't play.

3. Click "generate the code" button and copy the code that's in the box.

4. Go to your blog and click on "create now post" as usual.
5. Click on the "Edit Html" Tab.
6. Paste the code that you just copied from step 3. You're Done!!!!


Method 2 I think it's much easier :)

Note: There's many ways to do this. Many people prefer to use hosting sites like yousendit, megaupload, or sendspace but I think the best way for us is to use the UVA home directory.

1. Upload you file on to the home directory. SEE STEP A OF METHOD 1
2. When you get the URL of the file in the format

http://people.virginia.edu/~yourcomputingid/filename

a. Create a new post as usual and click on the hyper link button.
b. Enter the URL of your file and click OK.
c. Publish your blog. You're DONE!!!!



To download other people's file

1. Right click on the link/url
2. Click "save target as" or "save link as..."
3. Open the saved file

やった！！

天気

私はわるい（Bad)天気がきらいです。　チャロッストビールの天気はちょっとわかりません。きのうはあたたかくて、いい天気でした。でも今日はとてもさむくて、あめがふるいです。私はそんの天気がきらいです。　私はタイで住んでいました。あそこではとてもあたたかいですが、いい天気です。さむくありません、つめたい雨も、雪もありません。私は子どもの時、毎日友だちと外であそびに行きました。でもここでは、雨がふるいの時、雪がふるいの時、家を出たくありません。とてもさむいですから。時々、ここでは朝はとてもさむいですが、午後はとてもあつくなります。とてもたいへんです。
