Fluent Fiction - Hungarian: Lost and Found: A Summer's Heartfelt Reunion by the Lake Find the full episode transcript, vocabulary words, and more:fluentfiction.com/hu/episode/2025-07-24-22-34-01-hu Story Transcript:Hu: A Balaton partján, egy forró nyári délelőttön, Áron és kislánya, Zsófia, megérkeztek a családi összejövetelre.En: On the shores of Lake Balaton, on a hot summer morning, Áron and his little daughter, Zsófia, arrived for the family gathering.Hu: A tó vize csillogott a napsütésben, körülötte zöldellő dombok ölelték körbe.En: The lake's water shimmered in the sunlight, surrounded by green rolling hills.Hu: A nyár vidám hangjai, a hullámok csobogása és a nevető családok zaja keveredett a levegőben.En: The cheerful sounds of summer, the splashing of waves, and the laughter of families mixed in the air.Hu: Áron izgatott volt, de aggódott is.En: Áron was excited but also worried.Hu: Már hosszú ideje nem találkozott a testvérével, Líviával.En: He hadn't seen his sister, Lívia, for a long time.Hu: Nagy kőszikla volt az életében, bár régóta nem tartották a kapcsolatot.En: She had been a rock in his life, though they hadn't kept in touch for a while.Hu: Most azért jöttek ide, hogy újra szorosabbá tegyék kötelékeiket.En: They had come here to rekindle their bond.Hu: Amikor megérkeztek a piknikhelyre, Lívia már ott volt, egy nagy pokrócot terített le.En: When they reached the picnic spot, Lívia was already there, laying out a large blanket.Hu: Praktikus, mosolygós és mindig segítőkész nővérként üdvözölte őket.En: She greeted them as a practical, smiling, and always helpful sister.Hu: Áron magához ölelte húgát, érezte, hogy jó helyen van.En: Áron hugged his sister, feeling he was at the right place.Hu: Zsófia hamar beleveszett a tóparti játékokba.En: Zsófia quickly got lost in the lakeside games.Hu: Egyik percről a másikra már homokvárat épített, aztán kis vödörrel a vízhez szaladt.En: One moment she was building a sandcastle, the next she was running to the water with a small bucket.Hu: Áron azonban feszülten figyelte.En: However, Áron watched tensely.Hu: Egyedül nevelni Zsófiát nem volt könnyű, és gyakran érezte úgy, hogy nem képes megadni neki azt, amire szüksége van.En: Raising Zsófia alone wasn't easy, and he often felt he couldn't provide her with what she needed.Hu: Ahogy a délután folyamán beszélgettek, Áron végül megnyílt Lívia előtt.En: As they talked through the afternoon, Áron finally opened up to Lívia.Hu: Elmesélte, mennyire küzd az egyedülálló apasággal.En: He shared how much he was struggling with single fatherhood.Hu: Lívia figyelmesen hallgatta, és megnyugtatóan válaszolt: "Nem vagy egyedül.En: Lívia listened attentively and responded reassuringly: "You're not alone.Hu: Segítek, amiben tudok.En: I'll help in any way I can."Hu: "Ekkor történt a baj.En: Then disaster struck.Hu: Zsófia, aki eddig a közelükben játszadozott, hirtelen nem volt sehol.En: Zsófia, who had been playing nearby, suddenly was nowhere to be seen.Hu: A szívük zakatolni kezdett, ahogy szétnéztek a piknik területén, de Zsófia nem volt meg.En: Their hearts started racing as they looked around the picnic area, but Zsófia was nowhere to be found.Hu: "A tó partján nézek körül!En: "I'll look along the lake shore!"Hu: " – mondta izgatottan Lívia, míg Áron a bokrok között keresett.En: Lívia said excitedly while Áron searched among the bushes.Hu: A keresés izgalma régi sérelmeket hozott felszínre, de a közös cél, hogy biztonságban találják Zsófiát, szorosabbra fonta a köteléküket.En: The tension of the search brought old grievances to the surface, but the shared goal of ensuring Zsófia's safety tightened their bond.Hu: Végül, nagy megkönnyebbülésükre, Zsófia egy fa tövében játszva bukkant fel, egy aprócska békát szemlélve.En: Finally, to their great relief, Zsófia appeared playing at the base of a tree, observing a tiny frog.Hu: Áron és Lívia egymásra pillantottak, a megkönnyebbülés és az öröm keveredett.En: Áron and Lívia exchanged glances, a mix of relief and joy.Hu: Áron megölelte Zsófiát: "Jól vagy, kicsim?En: Áron hugged Zsófia: "Are you okay, sweetheart?"Hu: "A kalandos elkeveredés segített nekik meglátni, mennyire támaszkodhatnak egymásra.En: The adventurous mishap helped them realize how much they could rely on each other.Hu: Lívia újra kérdőn nézett Áronra: "Ugye tudod, hogy mindig számíthatsz rám?En: Lívia looked questioningly at Áron again: "You do know you can always count on me, right?"Hu: " Áron bólintott, valami új erőt érezve magában.En: Áron nodded, feeling a new strength within him.Hu: A nap végén, miközben a nap lassan leereszkedett a dombok mögé, Áron már nem csak testvérként, hanem barátként és támaszként tekintett Líviára.En: At the end of the day, as the sun slowly descended behind the hills, Áron saw Lívia not only as a sister but as a friend and support.Hu: És Zsófiával az oldalán, tudta, hogy nem kell egyedül szembenéznie a világgal.En: And with Zsófia by his side, he knew he didn't have to face the world alone.Hu: Csak egy nyári nap, de örökké tartó változás.En: Just a summer day, but a lasting change.

His journey from burnout to realignment offers powerful insights for anyone feeling adrift, especially those chasing success without a solid inner foundation.

If you were ever an enthusiastic reader of “Calvin and Hobbes,” “Peanuts,” “Blondie,” “Doonesbury,” or the “Boondocks,” you have a treat coming your way: “Mafalda,” a six-year-old comic book character created by the artist Quino in Argentina, is now available in English in a dazzling translation by Frank Wynne. Mafalda is a precocious kid—Frank describes her as “six going on sixty”—who observes the world around her with fresh eyes, and then asks the kind of queer questions that the grown-ups in her life can't or won't answer. Mafalda's concerns focus on humanity and world peace, and her innocence shines a bright light on the conflict between what adults claim to value, and how they actually live. Think of her as a socialist “Nancy.” We're joined from London by Frank Wynne, a former Chair of the Judging Panel of the International Booker Prize and the award-winning author, translator, and editor of two major anthologies, Found in Translation: 100 of the finest stories every translated, and QUEER: LGBTQ Writing from Ancient Times to Yesterday.

I think we should start finding our way back now," replied Jens, his voice carrying a hint of unease.Da: Da de forsøgte at vende om, opdagede de, at klitterne så ens ud og deres fodspor næsten forsvundet.En: As they tried to retrace their steps, they found the dunes looked alike and their footprints almost vanished.Da: Astrid kiggede på Jens med en snert af skyldfølelse.En: Astrid looked at Jens with a hint of guilt.Da: "Jeg tror, vi er lidt faret vild," indrømmede hun modvilligt.En: "I think we're a bit lost," she admitted reluctantly.Da: Jens tog en dyb indånding.En: Jens took a deep breath.Da: "Vi kan klare det.En: "We can manage this.Da: Lad os bare følge solen mod vest.En: Let's just follow the sun towards the west.Da: Det vil føre os tilbage."En: It will lead us back."Da: Sammen begyndte de at genfinde deres vej.En: Together, they began to find their way back.Da: De samarbejdede om at genkende små tegn og huske deres tidligere rute.En: They worked together to recognize small signs and remember their previous route.Da: Astrid lyttede til Jens's anvisninger, mens Jens lærte at nyde de små øjeblikke af opdagelse, som Astrid havde vist ham.En: Astrid listened to Jens's directions, while Jens learned to enjoy the small moments of discovery that Astrid had shown him.Da: Da skumringen nærmede sig, kom de endelig tilbage til parkens indgang.En: As dusk approached, they finally made it back to the park's entrance.Da: Solen kastede sine sidste stråler over horisonten.En: The sun cast its last rays over the horizon.Da: De standsede op og så på hinanden, trætte men lettet.En: They stopped and looked at each other, tired but relieved.Da: "Takket være dig kom vi tilbage i tide," sagde Astrid med et varmt smil.En: "Thanks to you, we got back in time," said Astrid with a warm smile.Da: "Og takket være dig oplevede jeg noget nyt," svarede Jens med et glimt i øjet.En: "And thanks to you, I experienced something new," replied Jens with a twinkle in his eye.Da: De havde begge lært vigtige lektier; Astrid værdsatte nu sikkerheden ved Jens's forsigtighed, mens Jens var mere åben for eventyr.En: They both learned important lessons; Astrid now appreciated the safety of Jens's caution, while Jens was more open to adventure.Da: Tilsammen var de klar til fremtidige oplevelser, både sikre og spændende.En: Together, they were ready for future experiences, both safe and exciting.

evening.Nl: Jasper merkte dat zijn pols kaal was.En: Jasper noticed that his wrist was bare.Nl: Zijn waardevolle horloge was weg.En: His valuable watch was gone.Nl: Een lichte paniek ontstond in de

take a closer look.Nl: Hij wilde geen problemen, geen ruzie in deze prachtige plek.En: He wanted no problems, no quarrels in this beautiful place.Nl: Terwijl iedereen verder speculeerde, verzamelde

zat, gaf hem een speels porretje.En: Lotte, who was now sitting next to him, gave him a playful nudge.Nl: "Dank je, Jasper," zei ze zacht.En: "Thank you, Jasper," she said softly.Nl: Die nacht dansten vlammen in de frisse zeelucht, en de groep voelde zich hechter dan ooit.En: That night, flames danced in the fresh sea air, and the group felt more united than ever.Nl: Oude wonden geheeld,

Gary was given some lost items and he tries to find the people who lost them

Barry conducts the third of his interviews with Vice Presidents at Criswell College. The life and career of Kevin Stilley, our VP of Finance, also took a circuitous route (there seems to be a pattern emerging here).

Episode #993 Ever feel like you've checked all the boxes—career, family, success—but something still doesn't feel right? You're not alone. And more importantly, you're not broken. In this episode, Tim Matthews is joined by Gregory “Dynamite” and Derek “The Redwood” for a down-to-earth conversation about what it really means to feel lost as a man. They get honest about the times in their lives when they realized they were completely off track—and what it took to admit it, face it, and find their way forward. This isn't about having a breakdown. It's about having a breakthrough. They share what it feels like to build a life that looks great on the outside, but doesn't feel right on the inside. The pressure to have the answers. The temptation to sedate with work, alcohol, or just staying busy. The fear of admitting you're not sure who you are anymore. But they also dive into the shift that happens when you stop fighting that feeling—and start listening to it. In this episode, you'll hear how spending time in nature, reconnecting with purpose, and leaning on brotherhood helped each of them move from feeling trapped to truly alive again. If you've ever wondered, “How did I get here?”—this conversation is for you. Sometimes being lost isn't a problem. It's a wake-up call. And it might be exactly what you need to finally find yourself. Feeling lost in your marriage too? Just like in life, the first step to fixing a relationship is admitting you're not where you want to be. This free training shows you exactly how to get clarity, connection, and that spark back.

Dr. Al Grauer hosts. Dr. Albert D. Grauer ( @Nmcanopus ) is an observational asteroid hunting astronomer. Dr. Grauer retired from the University of Arkansas at Little Rock in 2006. travelersinthenight.org From September 2024. Today's 2 topics: - When asteroid hunters follow an object in the night sky for a few hours or a couple of days they are only able to observe a snippet or tracklet of the object's hundreds to thousands of days long path around the Sun. If we only have a short sample of an orbit we loose precision to locate the object as the length of time since the last observation increases. It is thus possible to lose the knowledge of where to find a particular asteroid. - It's a good thing this one will miss Earth! Riding the surface of the asteroid that my Catalina Sky Survey teammate Richard Kowalski recently discovered would be an incredible experience.   We've added a new way to donate to 365 Days of Astronomy to support editing, hosting, and production costs.  Just visit: https://www.patreon.com/365DaysOfAstronomy and donate as much as you can!

Sermon by Rabbi Ari Lorge, "Lost and Found"June 13, 2025

“As my own mother is aging, she's telling me … before I take this to my grave, here is something you should know. So the secrets are coming out. And as more and more secrets are revealed, I'm learning more about myself.” - Ibi Zoboi Ibi Zoboi writes to remember—her own story, her family's legacy, and the long history of migration, myth, and memory that shaped them both. For Ibi, storytelling is a form of resistance and reclamation. It's how she makes sense of the secrets that shaped her life and gives voice to those left out of the narrative. A National Book Award finalist and the bestselling author of American Street, Pride, Star Child, and (S)Kin, Ibi's work blurs the line between folklore and futurism. In this episode, Stories Left Untold: Ibi Zoboi on Secrets Lost and Found, she opens up about growing up Haitian in 1980s Brooklyn, discovering a half-sister decades later, and finding her way to writing through soap operas, Stephen King, and the voices of women who came before her. She also shares how a Vodou ceremony in Brooklyn changed her relationship to her culture, why she always sought out elders and activists, and how she's still learning to push back against the pressure to fit a mold—on the page and off.Ibi's reading challenge, Haitian Creations, celebrates stories of migration and identity from first-generation and immigrant voices—stories that, like hers, speak to the truths we inherit and the ones we uncover for ourselves.Download Ibi's reading challenge at thereadingculturepod.com/ibi-zoboiAnd this week's Beanstack Featured Librarian is once again William Shaller, the librarian at Hoffman Middle School in Houston, Texas.

Father's Day is less than a week away, so I thought this would be a wonderful time to share a story about my father. I have lots of cherished memories to choose from, but this is one of my all-time favorites. I'm sure that, in the midst of the childhood crisis I was experiencing at the time, my dad never dreamed what a lasting and long-reaching effect of his response would have in my life, but it did.
