Episode #12 - The seasons in Hokkaido

Hey, how are you? I hope you are well. I'm Milo Spanish, a Spanish tutor at italki, and today we're going to talk about some interesting words in Spanish that sometimes confuse those who are learning the language.

1. Madrugar: Esta palabra no tiene equivalente directo en inglés. "Madrugar" significa levantarse temprano, especialmente antes de lo habitual. En algunas culturas, madrugar es una costumbre para aprovechar más el día. Por ejemplo, "Hoy tuve que madrugar para llegar a tiempo al trabajo."

2. Pena ajena: Esta expresión se refiere a la vergüenza que sentimos al ver a otra persona en una situación incómoda o embarazosa. No se trata de nuestra vergüenza, sino de sentirla por otro. En inglés sería algo similar a "secondhand embarrassment". Ejemplo: "Me dio mucha pena ajena ver cómo olvidó su discurso."

3. Empalagar: "Empalagar" significa sentir cansancio o hartazgo debido a algo que hemos consumido o experimentado en exceso. Puede aplicarse a comida, como cuando hemos comido tanto dulce que ya no queremos más. "Este postre está delicioso, pero después de dos porciones, me empalagué."

4. Desvelarse: Este verbo es usado cuando alguien no puede dormir o se queda despierto hasta tarde, generalmente por alguna preocupación o actividad. "Me desvelé estudiando para el examen y ahora estoy muy cansado."
 
5. Friolento: Se usa para describir a alguien que es muy sensible al frío. Una persona friolenta siempre tiene frío, incluso en temperaturas moderadas. "Soy muy friolento, necesito una chaqueta incluso en primavera."

Reducing the time we spend on our smartphones outside of work could help improve satisfaction and motivation in the workplace, according to a new study.

Spending less time on our phones doing non-work tasks like scrolling social media or watching videos could also have an impact on our mental health, researchers said.

A research team from Germany wanted to find out about easy ways companies could improve the motivation and well-being of their employees.

Almost 280 volunteers were put into four groups.

For one week, people in the first group reduced their daily smartphone use by one hour.

People in the second group didn't change their smartphone use, but did 30 minutes more exercise per day.

Participants in the third group did both of these things. And the fourth group didn't make any changes at all.

The volunteers took surveys about their work satisfaction, motivation and mental health before starting the experiment. They took the surveys again after the experiment ended, and then again two weeks later.

The researchers found that participants in both of the groups that reduced their smartphone use saw significant improvements in their mental health and workplace satisfaction. People in these groups also felt that their work-life balance was better.

And those in the first three groups — including the exercise-only group — all said they felt a greater sense of control over their lives.

The researchers said companies could think about encouraging employees to make small changes like these to their daily lives. When employees are happier at work, they're likely to be more productive, they added.

And the good thing for companies is that there's no cost to encouraging changes like these!
