Palabras que no tiene traducción en ingles (parte 4)

“I’d really like to participate in a drawing contest, which is organised by my university every year, and the first three prize winners actually go forward to a national drawing contest. I wasn’t so into drawing over the years, but I found that during all the covid lockdowns that it was a great way to pass the time, and really helped me from going stir crazy stuck at home every day during the numerous lockdowns we had.

 

I recently showed some of my friends a few of my sketches, which are mostly landscapes, and they were very complimentary, and suggested that I enter a competition, which gave me a boost of confidence. 

I imagine that the  competition would be pretty stiff for this contest, but i feel confident that i’ve really developed my skills enough over the past year or so, and with my friends and families encouragement have been able to get the nerve up to show off my drawing skills in public.

 

I guess the main reason i’d like to take part in this contest is that i’ve really grown to love drawing, and feel it would actually be a lot of fun to enter, as well as giving me a new challenge which i think i’m now ready for. Another reason is of course the chance of winning a nice prize, and maybe even having my drawing going forward to the national contest, which would really be amazing.

 

Thank you…. “

سلام من برگشتم با یه پادکست جدید. امروز می‌خوام به شما یک اصطلاح خیلی خیلی پرکاربرد در زبان فارسی یاد بدم "خسته نباشید. 
این اصطلاح در انگلیسی می‌تونه ترجمه بشه به
 "I hope you are not feeling tired" 
اما این اصطلاح دقیقا این معنی رو نداره و ما تو جاهای مختلف ازش استفاده می‌کنیم. امروز من به شما کاربردهای مختلف "خسته نباشید" رومیگم، امیدوارم که کامل مفهومش رو متوجه بشید.  
کاربرد شماره‌ی یک، مثلا وقتی که شما در کلاس هستین و کلاستون تموم میشه و می‌خوایند کلاس رو ترک کنید یا وقتیکه استاد می‌خواد کلاس رو ترک کنه پس شما می‌تونید به استاد بگین "استاد خسته نباشید، خداحافظ".
 کاربرد شماره‌ی دو، مثلا وقتی وارد یک مغازه می شید برای خرید کردن می‌تونین بگین "سلام خسته نباشید" پس همون موقع که وارد مغازه میشید می‌تونید بگید "سلام آقا خسته نباشید" و بعد سوالتون رو بپرسید و..
 کاربرد شماره‌ی سه مثلا وقتی که یک نفر از سر کار برمی‌گرده و خسته است فرض کنید همسر شما از سر کار برمیگرده می‌تونید بهش بگید "خسته نباشی عزیزم" و..
 کاربرد شماره ی چهار، بعضی وقتها ما از این اصطلاح به عنوان طعنه استفاده می‌کنیم فرض کنید دوست شما به شما قول داده یه کاری رو انجام بده و شما به اون زنگ می‌زنید و اون میگه من این کار رو انجام ندادم پس شما می‌تونید بهش بگین "خسته نباشی واقعا!"
 راستی در جواب "خسته نباشید" می‌تونید بگین "سلامت باشین"...  بله اینم از اصطلاح پرکاربرد امروز. امیدوارم ازش خوشتون اومده باشه و وقتی ایران اومدین به خوبی ازش استفاده کنید. تا پادکست بعدی خدانگهدار.

How To Get The Next Performance Review In 2024?

An impromptu speech  refers to a presentation delivered with little to no prior preparation. Often called "speaking off the cuff," it requires the speaker to think on their feet and effectively communicate ideas on a given topic with minimal notice. Impromptu speeches can arise in various situations, including:

Meetings: Brainstorming sessions, project updates, or responding to questions from colleagues can all turn into impromptu speaking opportunities.

Client Interactions: A chance meeting with a potential client or answering unexpected questions during a presentation might necessitate impromptu remarks.

Networking Events: Making a strong first impression often involves conversing and sharing ideas on the spot.
While lacking the polish of a prepared speech, impromptu presentations offer several benefits:

Authenticity: Speaking without a script can project genuine enthusiasm and passion for the topic.

Adaptability: Impromptu speeches allow you to tailor your message to the audience's interests or address emerging issues.

Thinking Skills: They challenge your critical thinking and communication skills on the fly.
Here are some tips for delivering successful impromptu speeches:

Take a Breath: A brief pause allows you to collect your thoughts and formulate a response.

Start with a Strong Opening: Grab attention with a relevant anecdote, statistic, or question.

Focus on Key Points: Organize your thoughts around a central message and a few supporting points.

Use Clear Language: Avoid jargon and speak in a concise and confident manner.

End Gracefully: Summarize your main points and conclude with a call to action or impactful statement.

By honing your impromptu speaking skills, you can become a more effective communicator and build trust with colleagues, clients, and potential partners in the business world.

Impromptu Speech Explained - Episode 91

En el día a día los españoles somos muy coloquiales. Usamos muchas palabras de jerga, informales, pero también frases coloquiales, que cuando las escuchas por primera vez pueden sonar un poquito extrañas, pero que son tan comunes que una vez que las has escuchado, no puedes parar de oírlas. Son frases que los españoles usamos todo el rato. En este episodio menciono algunas de ellas.

Espero que disfrutes este episodio.
