Hello everyone and welcome to our podcast today! Today we are going to talk about a fascinating topic: Arabisms and Nahuatlisms in Spanish linguistics.

Quetzal: Explorando la Cultura Mexicana

Episodio 3. Arabismos y Nahuatlismos



In italiano il verbo Piacere è il verbo che si usa per esprimere i gusti. È un verbo  irregolare e si usa

normalmente nelle forme:

-piace (terza persona singolare) e -piacciono (terza persona

plurale),

precedute dai pronomi indiretti

io= -mi

tu= -ti

lui/lei= -gli/le

noi=-ci

voi= -vi

loro= gli

Per la terza persona singolare ci sono due pronomi:

-gli per il maschile (a lui)

-le  per il femminile (a lei);

per la terza persona plurale, invece, c’è solo il pronome gli per

il maschile e il femminile.

Esempi

• A Maria piace il caffè. • Le piace il caffè.

• A Ugo piace ascoltare la musica. • Gli piace ascoltare la musica

• A Maria e Ugo piace viaggiare. • Gli piace viaggiare.

per la terza persona plurale, c’è solo il pronome gli per

il maschile e il femminile.

Esempi

• A Maria piace il caffè. • Le piace il caffè.

• A Ugo piace ascoltare la musica. • Gli piace ascoltare la musica

Phrasal verb- TAKE

Sophie knows what it’s like to feel a mix of excitement and anxiety in learning. When she was younger, she often found herself overwhelmed when studying, fearing that her efforts wouldn’t pay off. Research shows that fear often stems from a lack of self-confidence, where we question our own abilities. Sophie’s self-doubt was compounded by her parents’ high expectations, which made her feel like she could never measure up. Instead of motivating her, these pressures caused her to avoid studying, fearing that no matter how hard she tried, she would never be “good enough.”

In adulthood, Sophie realized that her fear was more than just insecurity—it was often accompanied by a sense of learning guilt. This guilt made her feel undeserving of success. When she did well, she sometimes self-sabotaged by downplaying her accomplishments or giving up at the next hurdle. According to research, self-sabotage often results from feelings of inadequacy or low self-worth, where people create barriers to avoid possible failure. Sophie’s “learning guilt” made her believe she wasn’t truly capable or deserving of progress, reinforcing her tendency to give up rather than push forward.

How did Sophie move forward?
