No es una cuestión de tiempo, sino de cimientos. Usá "ser" para definir la esencia de las cosas y "estar" para describir estados o resultados.

El verbo por dentro: La arquitectura de la realidad

Ep. 1: Los cimientos de la identidad | Ser vs. Estar

Today we will review an article entitled "Where in the World Do People Work the Least?" This episode will help the listener/viewer improve his or her pronunciation, listening comprehension, sentence construction, vocabulary and ability to construct sound and articulate arguments in English. This class is for the intermediate to advanced English learner who wants to master business English, not in a vaccuum, but rather in a very real context.  As in all of my programs, this one will examine a business-related topic.

Kenneth Business English (Article review)-Where in the World Do People Work the Least

LUKE: Hello? Hi, Stephanie, how are things at the office?
STEPHANIE: Hi, Luke! How are you? Can you please stop and pick up 
extra paper for the computer printer?
LUKE: What did you say? Can you repeat that, please? Did you 
say to pick up ink for the printer? Sorry, the phone is 
cutting out.
STEPHANIE: Can you hear me now? No, I need more computer paper. 
Listen, I’ll text you exactly what I need. Thanks, Luke. 
Talk to you later.
LUKE: Thanks, Stephanie. Sorry, my phone has really bad
reception here.



LANGUAGE NOTES
• There are a few ways to express a lack of understanding and to request additional 
information. The most common ones are stated, but you can also say “Excuse me” or 
simply “I can’t hear you.” In a more formal situation, try saying “I’m sorry?” or “I beg 
your pardon?” (with a rising intonation).
• When asking someone to clarify information try saying Can you please repeat that? / 
Can you spell that for me? / Can you please write down the address for me?
• Cutting out describes a difficulty in understanding a caller due to poor cellphone 
reception. If you are having trouble understanding the caller, you can also say The 
line is breaking up / I am losing you. If the phone call is disconnected because of poor 
reception, you can say The call dropped.
• Talk to you later is the equivalent in a phone conversation of “See you later” in a 
regular, face-to-face conversation.
• Reception here means the availability of cellular service, the possibility to receive and 
give calls on a cellphone. Cellphone reception can be limited in remote areas, inside 
large buildings or underground (in the subway, for instance).
