Hello Everyone! In this week 9 Journal I will talk to my partner, Novi Rahmawati.
✓ Title : Flood in Palembang
✓ Conversation Dialogue :
- Azzahra : Assalamualaikum. Hello, good afternoon Novi.
- Novi : Waalaikumsalam. Hi Zahra, good afternoon too.
- Azzahra : Is it raining there?
- Novi : No, Zahra. Here the weather is sunny
- Azzahra : Alhamdulillah. Actually at this time I was worried about the city of Palembang. Because there are frequent floods there.
- Novi : Yes, that's true. Did you know that most of the flooding is not caused by overflowing rivers due to rain, but drains that are clogged with garbage?
- Azzahra : What? Really?
- Novi : Yes, Zahra. Many news broadcasts like that.
- Azzahra : Very sad, isn't it?
- Novi : Of course. This is due to people who always throw garbage into the sewers so that the flow of water is blocked and inundated areas in Palembang City which in fact is low.
- Azzahra : In my opinion, the majority of the types of waste disposed of by the public are household plastic waste
- Novi : That's right Zahra. With a large garbage disposal capacity, it will affect the overflow of water.
- Azzahra : Oh my God. I am increasingly worried about the health of Palembang residents, especially children. People should be aware that throwing garbage into rivers is very dangerous and can cause flooding.
- Novi : Don't worry, Zahra. According to the news I read, the Head of the Sumatran River Area has carried out activities every Saturday and Sunday to clean rivers and waterways full of garbage. They have also started a campaign to clean rivers and waterways.
- Azzahra : Alhamdulillah, I am very relieved to hear that. Umm.. sorry Novi, I will end this call because I have other activities to do. Bye Novi. Stay safe and stay healthy!
- Novi : Oke, bye Zahra. Stay safe and stay healthy too!

✓ My Experience With My Partner
• My experience after speaking English with my partner was very interesting and I felt very happy. I get some new vocabulary from what my partner is talking about. I feel very challenged to be able to understand every word spoken by my partner and I also have to think about how to set the right tone of conversation, set word clarity, and pay attention to the fluency of pronunciation so that my partner can understand. I feel more relaxed during a conversation between me and my partner because from the conversation, we can evaluate and correct each other if there are words or pronunciations that are not right. In addition, we can also understand each other's meaning of the conversation.

✓ My Experience After Practicing the Vocabulary
• My experience after practicing new vocabulary in everyday life that I get from conversations with my partner, of course I feel very happy. The vocabulary that I get from conversations with my partner can increase my knowledge in enriching new vocabulary lists. I feel there are changes and developments for the better. The vocabulary that I get is fairly easy to understand and is very relevant in everyday life. This makes it easier for me to practice the vocabulary. Very interesting isn't it. From this vocabulary, it is also easier for me to compose a sentence that is effective and can be used in speaking in everyday life.

Thank you✨
