Listening Practice

[2]V/A지만: however

In this introductory episode, I’ll explain how this podcast will go beyond dictionary definitions and challenge the idea that two words can actually have exactly the same meaning.

I’m your host Emma, an Italki teacher with four years’ experience in editing and teaching writing skills. I’m bringing my passion for the intricacies of the English language to this podcast, where I’ll explain the subtle, pragmatic differences between a pair of synonyms each week. 

This might mean, for example, that one of the two words is more formal than the other, or creates more of a negative meaning, or has specific connotations that mean it’s only suitable for a certain topic, or level, or audience.

So, when you’re writing your next email, chapter, letter, or essay, you can feel confident that you’re choosing the perfect word for the situation.

So, get your magnifying glass and join me on this investigation into vocabularly!

Platforms like Slack and Microsoft Teams offer instant messaging, channels for focused discussions, file sharing, and video conferencing integrations. These tools foster real-time communication and build a sense of team presence, bridging the geographical gap. Beyond basic chat, they often integrate with other productivity apps, creating a central hub for workflows.

To keep projects on track and tasks clearly defined is crucial in a remote setting. Tools like Asana, Trello, and Monday.com provide visual boards, task assignments, progress tracking, and deadlines. These platforms ensure everyone knows their responsibilities and the overall project status, promoting accountability and efficient execution. Features like Gantt charts and workload management further enhance planning and resource allocation.

Remote work can amplify distractions. Tools like Toggl Track help individuals and teams monitor time spent on tasks, providing valuable insights for optimizing workflows and billing accuracy. Focus-enhancing apps like Freedom block distracting websites and applications, enabling deeper concentration and minimizing interruptions. Dedicated timer apps can facilitate techniques like the Pomodoro method.

Virtual face-to-face interaction is vital for team cohesion and effective communication. Platforms like Zoom, Google Meet, and Microsoft Teams offer reliable video and audio conferencing, screen sharing, and recording capabilities. These tools facilitate productive meetings, presentations, and virtual team-building activities.

The protection of sensitive information is paramount in any work environment, especially remotely. VPNs (Virtual Private Networks) encrypt internet traffic, ensuring secure connections. Password managers like LastPass and 1Password help generate and securely store complex passwords, reducing the risk of security breaches.

As a general rule we spend time on continuous verbs. For instance, "I like to spend time improving my English". We can also devote time to things, commit time to things, set aside time for things, and earmark time for things.

I hope you don't spend your time like this!

Man 1: Several years ago, I was in a car accident that left me with a back injury. As a computer programmer, I am still able to do my job, but I often have to take painkillers. When the pain gets particularly bad, I sometimes have to lie down on my back for a while until it goes away because sitting up really hurts. When we were in the office, I would worry that my colleagues would see me taking pills. Since we’ve been working from home, it has been much better. I can go and see my physical therapist more often too. I don’t have to worry as much and if I need to lie down for a little while to help my back, I can. When we were in the office, I’d sometimes be in a lot of pain but didn’t feel like I could say anything.

Woman: I have suffered from depression for a long time. Most of the time I manage it, but I often feel very nervous. Working in an office was really hard as I was always scared that I might panic and my colleagues would wonder why I was acting strangely. Working at home has been so much better for me as I don’t have to talk to so many people and I can have a relaxed environment and play peaceful music. Management is talking about going back to the office soon and I can already feel a lot of anxiety about it. I’m worried that I will not be able to hide that I’m depressed and people will judge me.

Man 2: I’m quite deaf in one ear. I don’t like to mention it when I’m at work because I feel as though there is often a stigma around disabilities. I worry that people will treat me differently. The problem is, sometimes I don’t hear when people are talking to me and then they think I’m ignoring them or I’m not listening. Working at home has been great for me because all of our communication has been online or video calls and I can wear headphones like everyone else. I’m not looking forward to going back to the office and I don’t see the point as I can do my job perfectly well from home.
