El voseo 

MARGARET: Mr. Wilson, I’d like you to meet 
Dr. Edward Smith.
MR. WILSON: It’s nice to meet you, Dr. Smith.
DR. SMITH: Pleasure to meet you, too.
MARGARET: Dr. Smith is an economist. He just finished
writing a book on international trade.
MR. WILSON: Oh? That’s my field, too. I work for the 
United Nations.
DR. SMITH: In the Development Program, by any chance?
MR. WILSON: Yes. How did you guess?
DR. SMITH: I’ve read your articles on technical assistance. 
They’re excellent

LANGUAGE NOTES
• Mr. Wilson, I’d like you … Notice the rising intonation on “Mr. Wilson,” which is used 
to address someone. Listen for the “d” in “I’d like.” This means I would like, which is 
very different from I like. (“I’d like” means the same as “I would like” or “I want.”)
• Dr. Smith is an economist. Notice the stress on “economist.” This content word has 
new information, so it is emphasized. There are four syllables in “economist,” with the 
stress on the second syllable (e-CON-o-mist).
• He just finished writing … “just” means the very recent past. “Just” is usually used 
with a simple past verb because the action is complete. However, it can also be used 
with the present perfect (He’s just finished writing …).
• Development program. Since these two words make a compound noun, the main 
stress falls on “development.”
• By any chance? Means the same as “possibly.” Notice the rising intonation, which is 
used in yes/no questions to confirm that something is true.

Day3: Formal Introduction in English

King Charles III was officially named Britain’s head of state on September 10. The ceremony was held at St. James’s Palace, in London, England. The tradition is centuries old. But this was the first time it was broadcast live online and on TV.

In a speech, Charles promised to follow his mother’s “inspiring example” as he took on his new role. “I am deeply aware of this great inheritance and of the duties and heavy responsibilities . . . which have now passed to me,” he said.

The ceremony ended when a royal official announced the news from a palace balcony. With trumpet players by his side, he led cheers of “Hip, hip, hooray!” for the new king.

King Charles’s coronation, or official crowning, is likely months away. It will be held at London’s Westminster Abbey.

Your Digital Nomad Journey

The allure of remote work and constant travel beckons. But trading your cubicle for a co-working space in Bali requires planning. Here's how to embark on your digital nomad adventure:

1. Skill Up & Find Your Niche: Can your talents translate to remote work?  Web developers, writers, and virtual assistants are in high demand. Hone your skills and identify a niche market you can serve virtually.

2.  Embrace Remote Work:  Many traditional jobs now offer remote options.  Discuss flexibility with your employer or explore remote work platforms. If freelancing, build a strong portfolio and secure clients before taking the leap.

3.  Financials: Be Ruthless:  Living on the road can be surprisingly affordable, but research your desired destinations.  Factor in visas, co-living, and travel costs.  Build a healthy savings cushion to cover any hiccups.

4.  Tech is Your Lifeline: Invest in reliable equipment - a sturdy laptop, noise-cancelling headphones, and a universal adapter are crucial.  Don't forget secure cloud storage and a VPN for safe internet access on the go.

5.  Master Time Zones:  Working across continents requires discipline.  Schedule calls considering time zone differences and utilize tools like calendar apps to avoid confusion.

6.  Embrace Community:  Combat loneliness by joining online digital nomad communities and co-working spaces in your destinations.  These connections are invaluable for support and advice.

7.  Be Flexible & Adaptable:  Expect unexpected internet outages, cultural differences, and travel mishaps.  Maintain a positive attitude and problem-solving skills are key for a smooth journey.

Remember, the digital nomad life isn't all sunsets and beaches. It requires hard work, discipline, and a willingness to adapt. But for those seeking freedom and adventure, the rewards are endless.
