Episode 6:
"Put Off... Like Laundry"
Today on “Phrasal Verbs Gone Wild”, we’re talking about everyone’s favourite phrasal verb: “put off”.
When you “put off” something, you’re delaying it. You know, like when you “put off” doing laundry until you have literally no clothes left.
Or when you “put off” studying until the night before the exam, because who needs sleep anyway, right?

There are some key differences between negotiating in person versus doing so virtually. When meeting face-to-face, it is easier to build rapport and trust with the other party. Seeing someone's facial expressions and body language helps both sides understand the other's perspective. It is also simpler to have informal side conversations that can move the negotiation forward in a more fluid, organic way. However, in-person negotiations require more planning, travel time and costs associated with getting everyone together physically.

Virtual negotiations conducted via videoconference or phone eliminate the need for travel but make establishing rapport more challenging. Without in-person cues it is harder to read another party's reactions and know when to push further on an issue or concede a point. Technical difficulties can also potentially hamper the flow of virtual discussions. However, virtual formats have increased flexibility as negotiators can connect from anywhere at any time based on their schedules. Exchanging revised offers and documents is also simpler digitally.

While building trust is tougher online, maintaining detailed notes and finding ways to personalize virtual interactions such as using video can help overcome some of the impersonal aspects. With practice and the right strategies, negotiators can develop their virtual skills just as effectively as doing deals in a traditional face-to-face setting. Both in-person and virtual negotiations have pros and cons, so understanding these differences can optimize outcomes regardless of format.

¿Quién no ha aprendido el estribillo de una canción en otro idioma sin saber lo que quería decir? Es mágico ¿verdad? Me recuerdo aprendiendo melodías de artistas que cantaban en inglés cuando yo no tenía ni la menor idea de lo que querían decir. ¿Y tú, no?

こんにちは！
Japanese daily life podcast のAtsushiです。
このPodcastは、日本語を勉強しているみなさんに向けたPodcastです。

今回は、シンガポールから目的地までの飛行機の中の話をします。

さて、無事会いたい人に会えて、いよいよ乗り継ぎのためにもう一度出国します。

どうやるのか分からなかったので、少し不安でした。
でも、結局はめっちゃ簡単に終わりました。

Departure gateまで行き、パスポートをスキャンします。それから、乗り継ぎのチケットをスキャンします。すると1つ目のゲートがあきます。そのまま前に進んで、カメラを見ます。それで本人であることが確認されると、2つ目のゲートがあきます。これで出国は完了です。

それから搭乗しました。13時間ぐらい乗りました。
めっちゃ長かったですが、寝たり、食べたり、映画見たり、いろんな話をしたりしていると、着きました。

着いてみるとあっという間でした。

それで着いたのは、なんと…
ドイツです！

ドイツのフランクフルトに着きました。
今回の旅行は、ドイツとオランダへ行きます。

その為にシンガポールで乗り継ぎをしました。
ドイツではフランクフルトに着いて、その日はフランクフルトに泊まりました。

次のPodcastでは、ドイツの話をしていきますね！
最後まで聞いていただき、ありがとうございます！

ではまた！
