सीख: मूर्खों से बहस करना बेवक़ूफ़ी है क्योंकि वो कभी भी बुद्धिमान लोगों की बातों को सच नहीं मानते और ऐसे लोग बहुमत के चलते सत्य को भी झुठला कर असत्य साबित कर देते हैं. इसलिए ऐसे लोगों को समझने या उनसे तर्क करने का कोई फायदा नहीं.

SERBIAN TO GO

Где Ајша и Бојана иду на одмор? – Gde Ajša i Bojana idu na odmor? – Where Ajša and Bojana go on a vacation? (Dialogue A2 level)

Mum: Hi remember me?

Dad: Oh yeah, aren’t you wait, aren’t you the mother of my children?

Mum: Yes, how are you doing? Haven’t seen you in a while! 

Dad: Now I’ve put them to bed, I’m great! 

Mum: Today was exhausting!

Dad: Tell me about it. What time were you up?

Mum: About 4:30. I need that early morning time to get myself together and actually do some work before it all goes to hell.

Dad: Every night, I tell myself I’m going to do that, and every morning when the alarm goes off, I tell myself I need just a few more minutes of sleep.

Mum: You’re a night owl, I’m an early bird, it’s just how we are.

Dad: But I want to be an early bird and watch TV at night instead of doing the work I need to do. By the way, thanks for helping me out today. I owe you. Tomorrow, they’re mine.

Mum: It’s fine. Apart from when Justin dropped his yogurt, I think it went pretty well.

Dad: Oh, I don’t think anyone even noticed the screaming child while I was presenting – and if they did, they probably didn’t want to say anything in case they have their own children screaming on call in the future.

Mum: I don’t think I’m convinced about this hybrid working situation. Don’t get me wrong, I love not having to commute every day. With my job, that’s easily two hours of the day I get back. But organizing myself and kids and work?

Dad: Yeah, it’s a challenge. Some days I feel on top of it all, but there are days when I feel like I’m a terrible employee, a terrible father and a terrible husband.

Mum: (with joking intonation) Oh honey, don’t think like that. Trust me, you’re a terrible husband EVERY day, not just some days.

Dad: Just for that, I’m not going to tell you where Becky hid the chocolate Nutella.

Mum: I’ll just go and buy more.

Dad: or the car keys

Mum: Fine. You’re a wonderful husband on most days.

Dad: I’ll be wonderful tomorrow while you’re in your meeting. What are you doing again?

Mum: I’m just leading the meeting, but the CEO is going to be there.

Intercultural communication. It sounds normal, right? But the relationship between culture and communication is a bit unclear for some. What was first? The egg or the chicken? The culture or the communication?

Episode 2: Culture and Communication - Independent or Interdependent

We know we should appreciate people more often but do we know how to acknowledge them and why is it even so important? 

In a conversation when you acknowledge people, they feel heard and valued. They become more open-minded even if you are opposing their beliefs. It’s because, through your acknowledgment of their ideas, they know that you have been listening and you understand where they are coming from. If you want to do business with people or maintain a good relationship with them, without learning how to acknowledge people, you will get nowhere.

Acknowledging is easy.

Just paraphrase what they said and follow up with a relevant question or your opinion. Paraphrasing proves that you understand them since you express their ideas using your own words. 

During negotiations or discussions even if you disagree with people, you can make them hear you out by disagreeing politely or by partially disagreeing with them. A strong disagreement shows that you are unwilling to talk. This makes the negotiation take a negative turn and go downhill. 

So, disagree politely and follow up with relevant questions to show that you are interested in learning more about them. 

What you do is often reciprocated. When you listen, they listen. When you show interest in people, they will show interest in you. When you acknowledge them, they will acknowledge your work, ideas, and suggestions.

Acknowledge people. Have more discussions and not arguments.

Storia dell’osteria del sole di Bologna

L’Italia è un Paese famoso soprattutto per la sua cucina e la sua arte ma in pochi conoscono la storia dell’Osteria del sole. È il 1465 e a Bologna già si vocifera che presto apriranno una nuova osteria nel centro della città.  La sua storia quindi risale al 1465, quando venne fondata come locanda per i viaggiatori in transito. Nel corso dei secoli, è diventata una tappa obbligata per chi visita la città di Bologna, attirando turisti e locali con la sua tradizione e l'atmosfera accogliente.


Un’osteria amata dagli scrittori

A vicolo Ranocchi, tra via Orefici e Pescherie Vecchie, nella parte più suggestiva della città, viene aperta quindi l’osteria del sole e funziona già da subito  a pieno regime: diventa ben presto un’osteria importante e conosciuta a tal punto che nel 1712 Giuseppe Maria Mitelli nel gioco delle osterie di Bologna (molto simile al famoso gioco dell’oca) raffigura per l’appunto molte osterie (59 osterie in tutto) e quella  del Sole occupa la penultima casella.
Nel 1879, è il poeta italiano Giovanni Pascoli, che viene arrestato proprio dentro l’Osteria del Sole con l’accusa di aver aderito alle idee socialiste. Nel corso degli anni, l'Osteria del Sole è diventata una meta culturale, ospitando artisti e scrittori famosi come Giosuè Carducci, Ugo Foscolo, e Giorgio Bassani. La sua fama è cresciuta anche grazie alla sua presenza in alcune opere letterarie come il romanzo "Il Barone Rampante" di Italo Calvino. L'osteria ha anche una lunga tradizione di accogliere i pellegrini in cammino verso Santiago di Compostela. Nel Medioevo infatti era una delle tappe obbligate per i pellegrini che attraversavano l’Appenino.

Gli attuali gestori sono la famiglia Spolaore e la storia di come loro zio sia entrato in possesso dell’osteria è altrettanto interessante e curiosa:  nel 1940 lo zio Aldo Canazza, è ciclista affermato e arriva a Bologna per correre la gara chiamata “cronometro” nei Giardini Margherita.
