#NFTsummer A few weeks ago, we interviewed Xixi Huang (AW#17) in Mandarin and as the AppWorks Fellow who helps us out on the blockchain side, Xixi has a lot of ideas that are worth sharing to a bigger audience. Here's his interview in English:

西西 (Xixi) 黃士晉 is an AppWorks #17 alumni and co-founder of Rydeit. His mission is to bring the applications of blockchain to everyday life because he believes that blockchain can make the world a more fair and better place. As an AppWorks Fellow, he is responsible for guiding founders to think about blockchain and providing insights on blockchain-related investment deals. Before AppWorks, he led his previous team to build more than 10 dapps, including famous games in Taiwan such as 柚子打魚 and Shrimp.Finance. Within a month of launching these games, they had amassed over NT$ 100M (~US$ 3.5M) in transactions. His favorite pastime is traveling with his grandma, and his ultimate goal is to persuade her to buy Bitcoin!

Check out what Xixi has to say about blockchain and NFTs.

#NFTevolution

I started to learn how to write smart contracts in 2016, and learned the entire logic of ERC-20 for tokens and ERC-721 for NFTs. While I was learning about NFTs, I realized that the combination of NFTs with video games was very fitting. In video games, the treasure and equipment you collect becomes virtual assets as NFTs. And the process of using smart contracts to exchange items was very efficient on the blockchain.

At the end of 2018, I designed and created a zombie video game, integrating the concept of playing and drawing cards and packs. Within a pack were 3 NFTs with zombies on them. As a player, the more cards with zombies you collect, the higher your score, and the more tokens you can ultimately earn. From this game, I got connected to other game manufacturers and publishers who were also interested in creating virtual game assets through NFTs. We all had the same idea -- NFTs can bring more meaning and value to the players.

However at the time, many people in the market still believed that tokens and games were riddled with fraud. Since the lifecycle of video games can be short, many traditional gaming companies in the end didn’t find it worthwhile to learn how to integrate NFTs or blockchain into their games.

While the nature of NFTs hasn’t changed, the market has evolved. People’s curiosities are growing, more applications are being developed, and more creators are cropping up. I think now is the right time to start talking to companies about how to integrate NFTs or blockchain into their businesses or games.

#NFTplayground

I think there are many opportunities to start a business these days, and people who want to start one should think about coming to blockchain. Not only is there a huge opportunity but the possibilities are endless. And within blockchain, NFTs currently offer the biggest opportunity. However, it can also pose a new challenge to the team’s endurance, because while easy to obtain traction and users with NFTs, the challenge lies in retaining them.

Similar to other blockchain applications in the past few years, when a new concept is invented, it’ll be flushed with many early users. However, because the surrounding infrastructure wasn’t in place, it was difficult for founders to make valuable extensions or applications. And many of these users don’t actually care about these blockchain products and they are only trying to leverage the ecosystem to make a quick buck. Once they earn all that they can, they will move on to another project.

Right now working on NFTs, you can collect a lot of data in a short amount of time and also make some income to keep you afloat. Founders should seize this opportunity to understand these users, then modify and optimize both their products and mentality to retain them.

Since there’s no geographical restriction on blockchain, I would encourage founders to look beyond your country and region in expanding your NFT products. Also, since blockchain is closely related to finance, if you don’t have a good pricing strategy (or token economics) for your NFT products, the prices might fluctuate greatly. You need to be prepared and remind your users of the risks, otherwise you’ll ultimately get scolded!!

#NFTera

This year, I finally consider myself an official NFT collector. I pay special attention to NFTs with contemporary significance, such as Hashmasks. It signals to the public that NFTs are not just for collecting but that game mechanics can also be applied to interact with users. If we look back ten years from now I’m confident to say that the project that really brought the NFT wave in 2021 would be Hashmasks.

In addition to veteran projects like Hashmasks, other collections I care a lot about are related to Metaverse, such as The Sandbox. I believe that the world will become more and more decentralized and virtual. It is very likely that the next generation will be immersed in a virtual world like Ready Player One, so I am also very optimistic about NFTs in digital worlds like The Sandbox.

The possibilities are endless when it comes to NFTs. Right now, few NFTs are connected with our daily lives. For example, I bought a Hashmask. If I want to show it in my apartment, I might still need to print it out. In the future, how will we connect NFTs to the physical world? I believe they can be applied in many ways, including frames, wallets, cars, house deeds, leases, etc. These products in daily life can be combined with NFTs. We just haven’t opened our imagination yet. It’s hard to imagine that only 20 years ago we were having a hard time believing in the power of the internet.

The development of science and technology not only relies on infrastructure, but also the user's learning curve. The world needs to talk about blockchain more, so that everyone will gradually become familiar with it and it’ll continue to evolve.

If you're a founder working in blockchain or NFTs, welcome to apply to AppWorks >> https://bit.ly/3w0WyIl

XU HƯỚNG RA ĐỀ IELTS HIỆN NAY CÓ GÌ KHÁC

Tác giả: thầy Ho Kinh Dat (https://bit.ly/3z7dfES)

________________
Hế lô các sĩ tử IELTS, mọi người cùng tham khảo bài chia sẻ trải nghiệm thi IELTS trên giấy vào ngày 20/05 vừa qua của mình nghen. Trong bài này, Đạt sẽ điểm qua xu hướng ra đề hiện nay của IELTS cũng như đưa ra một số tips giúp bạn chuẩn bị tốt hơn cho kỳ thi sắp tới của mình nhé!

🔈 Listening:

☘️ Part 1: trong 2 năm trở lại đây thì mình thấy IELTS có xu hướng nói tốc độ khá nhanh cho phần này, và thường đáp án sẽ được nhắc đúng 1 lần và bạn phải đủ nhạy để bắt câu trả lời, tần suất xuất hiện của thông tin sai để distract các bạn cũng ít hơn trước (mình ít thấy có trường hợp người này check lại với người kia và thay đổi thông tin). Đặc biệt các số điện thoại sẽ được đọc 1 lần rất nhanh và để làm đúng thì bạn nên “tụng lại” dãy số đó trong đầu rồi viết ra dần cho kịp :))).

Các bạn nên để ý các cách đọc số kinh điển như 00 (double zero / double oh), 444 (triple four), 1700 (seventeen hundred; họ thường đọc 17 trăm thay vì 1 ngàn 7 trăm).

☘️ Part 2: thường xuất hiện các dạng matching / labelling maps

☘️ Part 3: multiple choice (thường là combo chọn 2 trong 5 đáp án, và chọn A/B/C cho 1 bài thảo luận giữa 2 người)

Vẫn motif cũ là đoạn hội thoại giữa giáo sư & sinh viên, hoặc 2 sinh viên thảo luận với nhau. Nhưng mình quan sát thấy hầu hết các keywords trong các đáp án đều được speakers nhắc đến và cân nhắc, sau đó sẽ bị bác bỏ 1 số lựa chọn và đáp án đúng sẽ được họ chốt lại. Nếu bạn chỉ nghe keywords thì khả năng làm sai là khá cao, nên phần này mình cảm thấy khó làm hoàn hảo nhất, vì nó yêu cầu bạn phải hiểu tường tận ý tứ của cả 2 nhân vật. Dần dần thì IELTS đang ra đề theo hướng phải nghe hiểu mới làm đúng được, nên bạn cũng nên luyện nghe đa dạng chủ đề (bắt đầu từ chủ đề mình thích trước) chứ không nên dựa vào mẹo để làm IELTS listening nhé.

☘️ Part 4: hầu hết là 1 bài lecture và điền 1 word only
Tốc độ vừa phải, nhưng các từ xung quanh chỗ trống được paraphrase khá nhiều và đôi khi đáp án bị “tách” ra làm 2 câu. Bạn phải nghe cả 2 câu và kết nối ý để suy ra đáp án; mình thấy các pronouns như “this / these” để nhắc lại ý trước hay được dùng để tạo độ phức tạp cho câu hỏi.

Ví dụ:
- Câu hỏi là: In the 1800s, the creation of the _________ helped people keep in touch.
- Bạn nghe: The 1800s saw many technological breakthroughs, with the telephone being the most ground-breaking invention. This device then quickly gained popularity among the population who stay connected with one another.
- Đáp án: bạn phải chú ý bắt được từ “telephone” ở câu trước vì nó chính là “this device” ở câu sau. Các từ được paraphrase là [creation ~ invention] và [keep in touch ~ stay connected] —> đáp án là “telephone”
📚 Reading:

Các dạng câu hỏi luôn ra là True False Not Given / Yes No Not Given / điền từ (bạn nên ôn cho nhuyễn các dạng này vì theo mình 3 dạng này dễ lấy điểm nhất)

Các dạng câu hỏi thường xuất hiện là matching info / matching headings / matching tên các nhà nghiên cứu với quan điểm / chọn ABCD (thường xuất hiện trong passage 3)

Nhìn chung độ khó không thay đổi so với trước lắm. Về phân bổ độ khó thì passage 1 luôn là passage dễ nhất, tuy nhiên đôi khi passage 2 lại khó hơn passage 3 về dạng câu hỏi / nội dung, nên mình vẫn ưu tiên làm P1 trước, sau đó tuỳ vào độ khó của P2,3 thì sẽ làm passage nào dễ hơn trước để tiết kiệm thời gian. Cách phân bổ của mình là 15/20/25 minutes cho các passage từ dễ đến khó.

Mình là night owl nên hôm đó thi sáng thực sự buồn ngủ nên bị xuống phong độ tí cho skill này :)).

✏️ Writing:
☘️ WT1: maps về sơ đồ tầng (floor plan) của 1 toà nhà nào đó —> bạn phải so sánh 2 bản vẽ này trong quá khứ và hiện tại
☘️ WT2: “A country benefits greatly if some of its young population study abroad. To what extent do you agree or disagree?”

😵 Speaking:

☘️ Part 1: decorating my house / view from my windows / New Year celebrations
☘️ Part 2: Describe your favorite kind of weather
☘️ Part 3: ôiiiii có nhiều câu hỏi lạ lẫm về “rain”, mình chỉ nhớ sương sương được bấy nhiêu đây thôi, hình như còn nữa thì phải:

- Are there different types of rainy seasons in your country?
- How do seasons affect tourism in your country?
- Are there any celebrations or customs in your country related to the rainy season?
- Do seasons affect work patterns?
- Do you agree with the claim that we are experiencing climate change?
- How will global warming affect cities?

Nhìn chung mình gặp 1 cô giám khảo cũng nice và chuyên nghiệp, đeo khẩu trang đầy đủ. Đọc câu hỏi rất nhẹ nhàng và chậm rãi tuy accent hơi khó hiểu xíu (cảm giác không phải giọng Anh/Mỹ). Mình cũng bị ngắt vài lần ở part 3 và cô hỏi rất nhiều câu trong P3 - theo mình chủ yếu lầ để test phổ từ vựng của mình xem có đủ rộng không, nên đôi khi cô không cho mình nói quá nhiều, nên sẽ hỏi nhiều câu / chủ đề khác nhau trong mức giới hạn thời gian.

Hôm đó thì mình nói cũng thoải mái, chủ yếu là phải relax để đưa cảm xúc vô bài nói được, không quá áp lực phải khoe từ vựng vì sẽ dễ ảnh hưởng đến thần thái. Thực sự có gặp câu hỏi về “các loại mùa mưa” mình hơi đứng hình chút - ủa alo??? Nên mình đã thực tình nói với cô là “em cứ tưởng đó giờ có 1 loại mùa mưa thôi chứ, câu hỏi này làm em đứng hình xíu đó cô…không nghĩ lại có vụ phân loại mùa mưa nữa, nhưng theo phỏng đoán của em thì chắc mình phân loại theo tần suất và thời điểm xuất hiện mưa, và có thể mỗi vùng miền sẽ có các kiểu mưa khác nhau”.

Lời khuyên của mình là khi bạn không biết nói gì hoặc bạn nghĩ câu hỏi hơi lạ thì cứ thành thật nói về cảm xúc của mình lúc đó trước, và giải thích tại sao bạn nghĩ vậy, và sau đó cũng cố gắng hết sức đưa ra 1 sự “phỏng đoán” bằng tất cả kiến thức của mình. Vậy cũng ổn rồi. Bạn nên nhớ, CÁCH bạn trả lời mới quan trọng, chứ NỘI DUNG bạn nói sẽ là thứ yếu, nhưng nếu bạn có nhiều trải nghiệm để trả lời tất nhiên sẽ tốt hơn rùi. Ví dụ như gặp chủ đề về global warming ở trên mình có nhiều ý và từ vựng vì mình quan tâm đến chủ đề này và xem khá nhiều shows về chủ đề này - mình đã dùng được các cụm như “the melting of the ice caps / lead to a rise in sea level / coastal cities would be the hardest hit / many parts of the world could be submerged under water / climate refugees / be rendered homeless”.

☘️ Sắp tới mình sẽ làm 1 clip mô phỏng lại bài thi nói của mình ngày hôm đó để chia sẻ cách mình tiếp cận bài thi và vocab mình đã dùng hôm đó, bạn có hóng thì cho xin cái comment nhá :))).

☘️ Mọi người có câu hỏi gì về bài thi ngày hôm đó của mình cũng như thắc mắc về xu hướng ra đề / tips làm bài thì cứ comment thoải mái nhé, mình sẽ tranh thủ trả lời mọi người hihi.

Mong các bạn sẽ có thêm động lực để ôn thi IELTS nhen!!!

Baca Ini Jika Tak Pandai Bahasa Inggeris

Kepada korang yang dah pandai bahasa Inggeris boleh abaikan surat ini. Biarkan abang ajar kepada korang korang yang lain.

Semua sedia maklum bahasa Inggeris itu penting kerana banyak sekali sumber ilmu yang dapat dirujuk dalam bahasa ini.

Wikipedia yang menjadi rujukan terbesar pun paling banyak artikel ditulis dalam bahasa Inggeris. Begitu juga kalau korang berniat untuk menyelamatkan dunia, maka ‘kerja’ itu akan jadi lebih mudah bila korang pandai English. InshaAllah berjaya terutamanya jika korang expert like a crazy pig (pandai gila babi).

Nota: Gila babi bukan digunakan untuk menghina tapi untuk menujukkan rasa kagum yang teramat iaitu kagum gila babi. Harap maklum.

Berbalik pada topik utama. Dipendekkan cerita, dulu abang mayat adalah seorang Melayu yang agak malas untuk belajar bahasa Inggeris. Mungkin pada zaman itu, PM belum mewajibkan lagi pelajaran matematik dan sains dalam bahasa Inggeris. Lagipun pada masa itu belum ada internet, maka abang membuat endah tak endah dengan pentingnya BI (alasan semuanya itu).

Sehinggalah pada suatu hari, abang mayat melihat sekumpulan budak-budak Punk ketawa selepas membaca tulisan di dinding tandas terutama bila ada F word. Hal ini membuatkan abang iri hati dengan kelebihan ilmu mereka dan ditambah pula dengan ramainya pendosa dari luar negara yang datang ke Malaysia, maka abang memulakan langkah to improve my English sebagai salah satu kaedah yang lebih cepat dalam usaha menyelamatkan dunia. InshaAllah!

Bak kata pepatah:

“Everyone should be able to do one card trick, tell two jokes and recite three poems, in case they are ever trapped in an elevator.” (Lemony Snicket)

Namun, oleh kerana abang dah lama habis sekolah dan datang dari keluarga yang kurang berkemampuan, maka abang belajar bahasa Inggeris dengan cara sendiri.

Sekarang, berkat usaha gigih, karisma, dedikasi dan integriti... err… kejap! Cerita ini bukanlah nak bercerita tentang abang yang pandai English gila babi, tapi cerita tentang bagaimana kita boleh cepat pandai dalam bahasa itu. Bila cepat tiada lagi istilah ‘hot-hot chicken shit’.

Kalau mahu belajar apa-apa bahasa, perkara pertama adalah korang kena ada kamus sendiri. Korang kena beli kamus dan bawa ke mana sahaja. Kalau boleh hafal satu kamus. Jika dulu nabi digelar ‘al-Quran bergerak’, sekarang giliran korang pula menjadi ‘kamus bergerak’. Jika ada kawan bertanya, what is inception? Terus dapat jawab, the Nolam film in the beginning blah blah...nampak tak?

Abang tahu, korang lemah BI bukan sebab bodoh tetapi korang tak tahu makna dan malas menghafal kerana dalam otak sudah ditanam ‘tak tahu English pun boleh hidup juga’ atau ‘malaikat dalam kubur tak tanya dalam bahasa Inggeris’. Bukankah dalam syurga lebih afdal cakap Arab? Arghh… malas nak cerita bab ni. Apa kata korang buang persepsi itu. Jangan jadikan itu alasan dan halangan.

Abang juga hairan kenapa pelajar dalam kelas English jarang bawa kamus. Masalah utama korang adalah tak tahu makna. Jadi, kalau tak tahu kenalah beli kamus dan hafal. Itu kunci yang pertama!

“Don't be so humble, you are not that great.” (Golda Meir)

Dah ada kamus? Sekarang pergi beli buku nota untuk mencatat perkataan yang tak faham sewaktu membaca dan sebelum tidur hafal balik perkataan baru tadi.

Jadi korang akan ada dua buku, satu adalah kamus dan satu lagi buku nota yang akan menjadi kamus peribadi kerana korang akan mencatat perkataan baru dan tak tahu makna sahaja. Lama kelamaan, buku nota itu akan menjadi tebal dan korang dah tak perlu merujuk kamus lagi.

Untuk permulaan, Pilih bahn bacaan yang mudah dahulu. Kalau boleh ambil bahan bacaan budak tadika, baca dan faham makna keseluruhan cerita. Selepas itu, baca buku budak sekolah rendah pula, seterusnya buku sekolah menengah, lirik lagu, dialog film, dan akhirnya bacalah novel Inggeris sebelum membaca tafsir al-Quran dalam bahasa Inggeris.

Abang masih ingat apabila baru berkecimpung dalam dunia internet, rasa teruja sungguh. Begitu banyak sumber ilmu yang boleh kita terokai. Buka sahaja Wikipedia bermacam-macam cerita yang boleh dibaca. Cukuplah ada wiki.. Ilmu tak bertepi.. perghhh!

Waktu tu pun baru tahu apa itu Rotten Tomatoes, siapa Maddox, imdb info dan banyak lagi istilah baru. Tetapi sebelum itu kenalah pandai English dulu!

Bila dah pandai, boleh mula berniat untuk berdakwah ke peringkat antarabangsa. Bukan setakat dari Perlis sampai ke Sabah saja perjuangan kita. Think BIG dan langkah kita akan besar tapi jika Think SMALL maka langkah pun akan small.

Contoh: Jika korang fikir habis belajar nanti cukuplah dapat bekerja makan gaji di company yang stabil, maka perjalanan hidup akan terhad kepada kerja lapan jam sehari, lima hari seminggu dan menunggu dinaikkan pangkat. Tetapi jika korang fikir mahu berbisnes, mencipta produk, menggaji pekerja, kayakan diri sendiri dan membuat sesuatu yang bermakna, maka perjalanan hidup korang akan luas tiada penghujungnya. Tapi sebelum nak mendapatkan semua ini, kenalah pandai bahasa penjajah!

“To stay around (if you dot want to go far), learn bahasa tempatan. To go futher, learn bahasa penjajah!” (Hamka Kereta Mayat)

Jadi Abang memang rajin baca Wikipedia. Sambil baca sambil buka kamus, (sekarang dah ada Google Translate lagi senang). Selepas itu abang beli akhbar The Star, komik English (sekarang banyak yang online) dan juga kitab karangan Maulana Yusof Mutakhab, hadis versi English. Baca, baca dan baca…

Dari dulu abang suka tengok movie. Selesai tengok movie, abang akan baca sinopsis atau plot cerita dalam bahasa Inggeris untuk tahu penggunaan ayat. Mana yang tak faham abang akan catat dan hafal pada waktu makan. Begitu juga dengan komik Dragonball dan GTO, walaupun dah khatam dalam bahasa Melayu, abang baca pula versi bahasa Inggeris di internet.

Bila berjalan abang akan bawa kamus, (sekarang cuma perlu download aplikasi ke dalam telefon) jika nampak tulisan yang diconteng di dinding tandas awam dalam bahasa Inggeris, abang akan buka kamus dan ketawa dalam slang English jika lawak itu bermutu tinggi.

Contoh lawak di dinding tandas;

‘A successful man is one who makes more money than his wife can spend. A successful woman is one who can find such a man.’ (Lana Turner)

Untuk lebih cepat pandai, abang pinjam dua buku dari perpustakaan awam iaitu versi Melayu dan Inggeris. Kedua-dua buku itu abang akan baca dan bandingkan. Antara buku yang abang buat begitu adalah How To Win Friends & Influence People tulisan Dale Carnegie, Rich Dad Poor Dad dan banyak buku popular lain.

Untuk dapat saham di dunia dan akhirat pula, abang baca buku islamik yang ada dua versi BM dan BI seperti buku tafsir dan hadis. Kedua-dua buku itu abang baca dan bandingkan. Ada juga waktunya isteri abang akan membaca taklim dalam BM dan ayah semak dalam BI.

Contoh hadis bahasa Inggeris yang dipetik dari A Selection of Hadith;

Nabi said: He is wise and shrew who takes account of himself and prepares for what is after death. And he is weak and incapable who follows his desires and yet pins high hopes on Allah’s Mercy. (Tirmidhi)

Kadang kadang abang kaji falsafah Inggeris:

“Before you were born, your parents weren't as boring as they are now. They got that way from paying your bills, cleaning your clothes and listening to you talk about how cool you thought you were. So before you save the rain forest from the parasites of your parent's generation, try delousing the closet in your own room.” (Bill Gates)

Ada masanya apabila menonton filem, abang akan fokus pada subtitiles dan gunakan dalam kehidupan seharian. Contoh petikan dialog daripada filem Bujang Lapuk (The Three Bachelor Warriors).

Aziz : Probably, that house that you mentioned, has anyone occupied it yet?

Sudin : Which house ?

Aziz : That house, the one that you kept talking about.

Sudin : Oh, that house. It's still vacant ... if we apply for it, we'll get it.

Aziz : How many rooms, Din ?

Sudin : I saw three rooms.

Aziz : That's good. Each of us can have a room to himself. Are they large ?

Sudin : Not very. But it's long, 7 feet ... about 3 feet long and 7 feet deep.

Aziz : Quite big, huh, there's even depth..that's A GRAVE !

Woha!

Bila dah naik sheikh, ada juga abang cuba menyanyi lagu Melayu dalam Bahasa English seperti lagu;

Sekadar Di Pinggiran - Just at the Edge
Menaruh Harapan - Pinning on Hope
Kau Kunci Cintaku Di Dalam Hatimu - You are the Key to My Love in Your Heart
Takdir Dan Waktu - Fate and Time
Pada Syurga Di Wajahmu - Your Heavenly Face
Teratai Layu Di Tasik Madu - Dying Lotus in the Honey Lake
Tanya Sama Itu Hud Hud - Ask the Woodpecker
Cinta Beralih Arah - Love Turns Away
Jerat Percintaan - Love Trap
Balqis - Queen of Sheba
Rela Ku Pujuk - I'm Willing to Entice
Gemilang - Glory
Terlalu Istimewa - Too Special
Awan Nano - Nano Cloud
Terukir Di Bintang - Etched In the Stars
Bahagiamu Deritaku - Your Happiness is My Pain

Kalau masih tak faham lagi, di sini abang copy paste satu lagu yang paling abang suka nyanyi dulu.

Aci-Aci, open the door,
Nana come back at one a.m,
Don't be afraid of the owl,
Nana bring Semambu of cane.

Nana Nana, come home rush,
Aci afraid to be all alone,
There's a ghost behind the house,
Shifty eyes and a striped nose long.

Aci aci, don't be afraid,
Nana have Oh! a stunt machete,
Ghost and demons will be afraid,
See the machete, surely they desperated!

If Nana, just say so,
Then my heart is calm so-so,
If come again, ghost and demons,
Aci will beat them with a brooms!

(Lirik tibai, mintak tolong cikgu Inggeris betulkan)

Lagu lain:. suci dalam.debu.

Alkisahnya Lagu suci dalam debu popular waktu abang tingkatan satu.

Naik bas pergi sekolah driver putar lagu ni.

Abang waktu tu ada minat sorang awek pandai English bernama Adibah nor(typo nama sebenar), jadi abang translate lagu Iklim versi English dan bagi kat dia.

Tapi cinta abang ditolak. Mungkin sebab kesalahan grammar abang yang telus sangat. Ha ha

Clean in dust!

(Sila Nyanyi ikut rentak asal)

You just like a clean water
In the glass with dust
Even the dirty.... you can see
Beautiful of clean is still protect

Love is not only at eye
Love coming from heart
Let be wrong.. from they eye
Let the different can see... between us.

I hope you... still can accept
Even looking so ugly
Because the real meaning of love
Only we feel it

One day will coming
The light will appear
The door will open
We step in together

That time we can see
The light is bright
The dust be a pearl
The ugly be honor

This is not dreaming
What I sharing
But very confident
Happening

Because of love
The sea will burn
Still I swimming
Confirm!

Woha!

Selain itu, untuk menambahkan kefahaman dalam English, abang juga berpantun dengan orang-orang tua.

Contoh pantun;

The Pandan Island is far from land,
The Daik Mountain has three peak,
Though the body has rot in the sand,
The good deeds are never forget.

(grammar silap sikit sebab nak bagi belakangnya sinomim, adohai)

Terkadang abang juga ada berteka-teki dalam bahasa Inggeris;

1. Which mountain has three peaks?
2. Which island is far from land?

Sesekali, apabila berdiri seorang diri depan cermin, abang akan menari macam Michael Jackson dan menyanyi lagi ini;

You better run,
You better do what you can,
Don't wanna see no blood,
Don't be a macho man,
You wanna be tough,
Better do what you can,
So beat it,
But you wanna be bad,
Just beat it.

Bini abang cukup menyampah tengok ayah tergedik-gedik sepahkan bilik tidur dengan tarian gimnastik. Woha!

Kadang-kadang abang akan berpatriotik dalam Bahasa Inggeris;

Rukun Negara
Kepercayaan kepada Tuhan - Belief of God
Kesetiaan kepada Raja dan Negara - Loyalty to King and Country
Keluhuran Perlembagaan - The Supremacy of the Constitution
Kedaulatan Undang-Undang - The Rule of Law
Kesopanan dan Kesusilaan - Courtesy and Morality

Bila jumpa member-member berpendidikan tinggi yang bergelar pensyarah, doktor atau professor, tanpa segan silu abang akan terus bercakap dalam bahasa Inggeris dengan mereka. Begitu juga jika berurusan dengan orang Cina dan India, abang akan speaking dengan mereka. Malahan dengan kucing yang curi-curi masuk rumah pun abang akan halau dalam bahasa Inggeris. Malah sesekali bila berasmaradana dengan bini, kami speaking juga. Woha!

Dan pengalaman yang paling bernilai dalam hidup ialah ketika para pendakwah dari luar negara datang berdakwah di kampung maka abang akan menjadi pengalih bahasa untuk orang kampung yang tak tahu berbahasa Inggeris. Begitu lebih kurang…

“Alhamdulillah, Allah puts the success of human’s life in this world and the hereafter only in the perfect religion. The Perfect religion is carrying out all of the commandments of Allah following the way of Rasulullah S.A.W. All of the companions of Rasullulah have had the perfect religion in their life, It was mainly because all of them had six noble qualities with them. If we want to have the perfect religion in our life, we should follow the footsteps of those successful people by making effort to obtain and bring the six qualities into our life. If we have these six noble qualities with us, we will also be able to practice the perfect religion in our life easily…”

Alkisahnya, Pada suatu hari, ketika rancak berborak dengan kawan-kawan dalam bahasa Inggeris yang berterabur tapi janji faham, maka terciptalah satu teori baru dalam hidup abang. Kawan-kawan abang bila belajar bahasa Inggeris mereka ada target atau measurement masing-masing dalam menentukan setakat mana pengetahuan mereka dalam bahasa ini telah tercapai.

Sesetengah mereka menganggap sudah pandai berbahasa Inggeris apabila boleh berborak dengan pelancong asing. Ada pula yang merasakan mereka sudah fasih berbahasa ini apabila boleh menyanyi lagu Inggeris dan pada masa sama faham maksud tersirat. Ada yang anggap mereka sudah pandai berbahasa Inggeris apabila boleh mengarang resume sehingga diterima kerja. Selain itu, ada yang menganggap mereka sudah fluent English apabila boleh membaca novel barat tanpa merujuk kamus dan lain-lain.

Tapi abang lain, abang ada target tersendiri dalam menentukan setakat mana pengetahuan ayah dalam Bahasa Inggeris tercapai iaitu…

(bersambung...)

Tapi abang lain, abang ada target tersendiri dalam menentukan setakat mana pengetahuan abang dalam Bahasa Inggeris tercapai iaitu…

Abang Mesti Bermimpi Dalam Bahasa Inggeris!

Maka untuk itu.., pada suatu hari yang lain

(Sekarang baru betul betul bersambung)

Woha!

(cerita penuh kisah ini ada dalam buku Hamka keretamayat-Ngeteh dikubur ayah)

Buku ada stok.

Semusim di Syurga- kisah penduduk kuala syurga dan masalah agama.

Kisah laki bini-cerita pasangan membantu cinta dalam masa tiga hari.

Kisah anak bini- kisah anak tanya soalan pelik tapi di jawab oleh ayah dengan bergaya.

NGETEH di kubur ayah-kisah surat dari kubur kepada masyarakat kebanyakkan.

Kerana dia anak syurga:-kisah 12 parent OKU berdamai dengan takdir.

No wasap untuk order abang mayat share dekat first komen.

Don't say abang not umbrella.. ella..ella.. umbrella.. ella.. ella..

Woha!

So excited to share with you guys the products that I have been absolutely loving this month! Hope 2020 has been treating you well so far, and wishing everyone health and safety at this time! ?

Edit/ This video was filmed in mid feb before the virus was renamed Covid-19 as I was scheduled to leave the country from mid to end feb on several work trips (which most were cancelled ?) the video has been named “February Favourites” for convenience and the favourites I’ve discovered in the later half of Feb will be featured in next month’s favourites instead!!
As always, thank you for watching!
