How can we increase profitability?
Note the different forms of referring to job cuts.

The Social Evolutionary

BUSINESS - COUNTING THE COST OF CUTS

¡Hola! Welcome to Spanish from Zero, a podcast for people who are just starting the amazing journey that is learning Español. Today we’re gonna practice talking about occupations. 

Here’s how it usually goes:
• ¿Qué haces? (What do you do?)
• Yo soy… (I am…)

Note that in Spanish we tend to NOT use articles (a, an) when describing someone’s job title:
Yo soy profesora. (Literally: I am teacher)


The other thing we have to keep in mind whenever we’re describing someone is their gender. These are the most common word endings when it comes to occupations:

• Gender neutral endings:
ISTA: el artista / la artista, etc.
NTE: el estudiante / la estudiante, etc.

• Feminine vs. Masculine endings:
O / A: el secretario / la secretaria, etc.
OR / ORA: el profesor / la profesora, etc.


Okay! Now that the explanation is out of the way, let’s practice a little bit. I’ll say a couple of sentences and you need to figure out if I could be describing a man, a woman, or either one:

Es arquitecta 🏗️
Es programador 💻
Es analista 📉
Es presidente 🏳️
Es veterinaria 🐾
Es electicista 🔌
Es asistente 📋
Es dentista 🦷
Es fotógrafo 📷
Es mecánico 🔧
Es doctora 🩺

In this episode, we dive into the character of Kenny Ackerman from Attack on Titan.
His clumsy love for others, his complicated bond with Uri, and his deeply human struggles make him one of the most intriguing characters in the series.
Through his words and actions, we catch glimpses of human weakness, strength, and even a hint of hope.
Which of Kenny’s lines or scenes stayed with you the most?
Let’s take a moment to reflect on the depth and complexity of this unforgettable character.
