Do Things 做事

¡HOLA A TODOS!

En este episodio, vamos a explicar las diferencias entre estos tres términos. 

Hispanoamérica, Iberoamérica y Latinoamérica tienen un significado distinto y no engloban a los mismos países. Por eso, voy a aclarar cada uno de ellos en este podcast, qué área geográfica comprenden y qué idioma o idiomas se incluyen en cada uno. ES MUY IMPORTANTE SABER QUE NO SON SINÓNIMOS. 

HISPANOAMÉRICA: Nombre que recibe el conjunto de países americanos de lengua española. Quedan, excluidos de esta denominación los países de América en los que la lengua oficial no es el español. Su gentilicio, hispanoamericano/a, se refiere estrictamente a lo perteneciente o relativo a la América española y no incluye, por tanto, lo perteneciente o relativo a España. Ni España ni Brasil pertenecen a Hispanoamérica. 

IBEROAMÉRICA: Lo primero que tenemos que saber es que Iberia es el término que usaban los griegos para referirse a lo que hoy es la península ibérica (España + Portugal). Por eso el término “Iberoamérica” incluye a todos los países de América en los que se habla español o portugués. Su gentilicio, iberoamericano/a, se refiere normalmente solo a lo perteneciente o relativo a Iberoamérica, esto es, a los países americanos de lengua española y portuguesa.

AMÉRICA LATINA: se usa por primera vez en Francia a mediados del siglo XIX. Nombre que engloba el conjunto de países del continente americano en los que se hablan lenguas derivadas del latín (español, portugués y francés). Su gentilicio es latinoamericano/a.

I SPEAK SPANISH WHAT'S YOUR SUPERPOWER?

IBEROAMÉRICA, HISPANOAMÉRICA Y LATINOAMÉRICA

I am Ann I talk about how to resolve problems at work caused due to lack of communication skills.
In this podcast, I want to talk about what to do when you don’t know the answer to a question or when you are clueless about the topic of discussion.
Usually, when people don’t know what to say they try to change the subject or dodge the question. In a more professional setting when you don’t have the answers, you say you will get back to them later. If you can get away with this, it’s great. In another video, I will share how to do so in worst-case scenarios. 
In another scenario where you don’t know what people are talking about, you end up listening and smiling pretending to be a part of the conversation. You want to be included and want to be part of the discussion but don’t know how to since that topic is unknown territory for you. So in this video, I want to share how to deal with difficult questions or speak on topics you don’t know a thing about. At the same time, this method will help you build rapport with people, keep the conversation going and come across as someone smart.
We will achieve this in three steps. First, when someone asks you a question you ask them to be more specific. In step 2 you make a personal comment and follow up with another question to dig for more information on that subject. And finally, you ask for the speaker’s opinion on the matter. 
Listen to the podcast and learn how? 

Sensei Ann

Some examples in the recording:

Please: Sils vous plait (French), bitte (German)
Thank you: obrigado (Portuguese), dyakuyu - дякую (Ukranian)

I hope my pronunciation wasn't too bad!

Are you ready to master the art of effective business communication? As an educator, my primary objective is to equip my Business English (BE) students with the skills they need to excel in the professional realm. In my class, we dive deep into the world of written communication, exploring the ins and outs of crafting compelling emails, memos, reports, and business letters. From understanding the core principles of effective writing to applying them in practical scenarios, I guide my students on a journey towards proficiency. Through engaging discussions and interactive exercises, we explore the importance of clarity, conciseness, and precision in communication. Grammar, punctuation, and formatting conventions are meticulously dissected, forming the building blocks of polished writing. Moving forward, we delve into the practical aspects of business communication, dissecting the components of impactful emails, constructing concise and effective memos, and mastering the art of persuasive report writing. Additionally, we explore the nuances of writing professional business letters, adapting our communication style to suit diverse audiences and contexts. Through role-playing activities and simulations, my students gain practical experience, preparing them to navigate real-world business scenarios with confidence.
