UREP - Ep. 5 (Anécdotas del pasado)

Hello and welcome to another episode of Engine English. Ever since the might of the British Empire was expelled from the United States, ordinary folk from both sides of the pond have chuckled at each other's use of the English language and pronunciation. 

This has also led to a few interesting conversations where things often get lost in translation.

The two might share the English language but it can seem like you're speaking an entirely different language if you're unaware of the way certain words are used.

Using English at work as a second language can be challenging. If you spend a lot of time on the phone this is even more true! Today we're talking about Business English vocabulary and communication skills that you can apply to your phone calls to sound more natural, native, and professional when you make or answer phone calls. We might call it telephone English! We talk about how to clarify information, how to ask someone to wait, how to transfer a call, and more. At the end of the podcast we'll have a quiz to check your understanding and find out how much of the new vocabulary and ideas you can remember. 

Don't forget, if you want to work with me in one on one, private sessions then I am a full time Business English coach and tutor. I spend my whole professional life helping international professionals to improve the way that they communicate at work. You can book some of my time at right here on iTalki and I look forward to speaking with you soon!

「ヲタク」はもう、「スシ」「カワイイ」「カラオケ｝と同じくらい、有名な「日本語」になっていますね。この「ヲタク」文化の中に「鉄道ヲタク」というのがあるのを、ごぞんじですか。電車が大好きな人たちのことで、この中にもいろいろな種類があります。たとえば、写真を撮るのが好きな人は「撮（と）り鉄」。駅のホームの一番はしっこで、よく写真を撮ってるのを見かけます。（落ちたら、あぶない、あぶない！）他にも「乗り鉄」というのがあって、これは電車に乗るのが楽しくてたまらない人たちのことです。でもね、線路がいつまでもあると思ったら、大まちがい！先週、JRのフリーパスを使って旅行したらね、前より線路が短くなってたよ。そんな私の一日電車旅行の話です。あ、私は「乗り鉄」ではありませんよー。

#1 How to say? 【 Too cute! 】 in Japanese

Oxitocina, serotonina y dopamina son liberadas causando una sensación elevada de bienestar con un abrazo. En este episodio te hablo sobre mi perspectiva de los abrazos y por supuesto te dejo unas preguntas para que pongas a prueba tu comprensión auditiva. 

La magia de la vida

Episodio 7: El poder de un abrazo

In Episode 69, we explore the internal power of solo language learners and how deep peace, not pressure, builds fluency. Drawing from psychological frameworks like Self-Determination Theory, we see how autonomy and self-knowledge fuel motivation. For learners struggling with fear, guilt, or overwhelm, this episode offers tools like expressive writing, emotional labeling, and mindfulness-based focus techniques, all backed by neuroscience and cognitive psychology.

The key insight? You don’t have to fight your feelings.
You just have to work with them, gently and honestly.
Even in solitude, you are never truly alone—because your resilience, insight, and ability to adapt walk the path with you.
