ペッパピッグ二

 みんなさん、こんにちは！

I have outlined my love for ペッパピッグ in 日本語 before, and I will say it again. It is a great way to pick up new everyday words and phrases! In this episode, titled おおあらし (thunderstorm), it is a beautiful day and the sun is shining. ペッパ left her beloved teddy outside after George and her were having a picnic. Daddy Pig, unafraid of storms, goes on a rescue mission for the テッデイ... big surprise: he gets caught in the storm! He returns inside, soaking wet, when the ROOF starts leaking from multiple places! In order for the children to not get so scared of the thunder, the かぞく(family) counts between each thunder and lighting. At the end, the storm clears and the family goes outside to stomp in the newly created mud puddles. ペッパ learns she loves storms now because they make puddles! Some new vocabulary that I was able to learn was あらし (thunderstorm)、雨（あめ - rain）、にわ (garden).

ペッパピッグ！04.07

 みんなさん、こんにちは！

きょう、ペッパピッグをみました。In the episode, Peppa is learning how to ride a じてんしゃ (bicycle). I learned the words つけてとあぶないとカボチャ(take care, dangerous, pumpkin). I thought it was particularly interesting that the word カボチャ is used for pumpkin, but pumpkin pie is パンプキンパイ, which makes a lot more sense in my English-oriented brain. 

During the episode, Peppa is riding her bike with her friends and asks Daddy Pig to take off her ほじょりん、or stabilizers (basically training wheels). Daddy Pig has just harvested his カボチャ, which he is very proud of because it is とても大きいです。The children are racing down a hill when Peppa flies off her bike and lands on the カボチャ、crushing it. She feels bad, but Daddy Pig just says he will make some パンプキンパイ for everyone!
