Всем привет!
Hello, Russian Language Learners!
Salut, les amis!

This is 1-minute (or so) podcast on Survival Phrases when you need to buy some medicine in a pharmacy. We all may have headaches or stomachaches on a trip. Even though you might already know how to do shopping in Russian or ask for directions but if you are not well, it’s a relief when you know what to say to the pharmacist in the nearest pharmacy. (Believe me, it’s on every corner!)  
A piece of advice! Check on the internet Russian analogs of medicine that you are used to buy in your home country.

Vocabulary Acquisition - How to Effectively Use Collocations

嗨，大家，这个星期真的很难熬 :( 我真的筋疲力尽。不幸的是，我的状态真的和这个表达相匹配。我会在这一集告诉你们原因。

I am Ann I talk about how to resolve problems at work caused due to lack of communication skills.
In this podcast, I want to talk about what to do when you don’t know the answer to a question or when you are clueless about the topic of discussion.
Usually, when people don’t know what to say they try to change the subject or dodge the question. In a more professional setting when you don’t have the answers, you say you will get back to them later. If you can get away with this, it’s great. In another video, I will share how to do so in worst-case scenarios. 
In another scenario where you don’t know what people are talking about, you end up listening and smiling pretending to be a part of the conversation. You want to be included and want to be part of the discussion but don’t know how to since that topic is unknown territory for you. So in this video, I want to share how to deal with difficult questions or speak on topics you don’t know a thing about. At the same time, this method will help you build rapport with people, keep the conversation going and come across as someone smart.
We will achieve this in three steps. First, when someone asks you a question you ask them to be more specific. In step 2 you make a personal comment and follow up with another question to dig for more information on that subject. And finally, you ask for the speaker’s opinion on the matter. 
Listen to the podcast and learn how?

In questo episodio parlo di uno dei tanto stereotipi sugli italiani: L'essere "mammoni"!!!
Se è sicuramente vero che abbiamo un legame fortissimo con la nostra famiglia e in particolare con la mamma, è anche vero che non bisogna fare l'errore di valutare aspetti culturali come questo con una scala di valori che appartiene ad una cultura diversa. Buon ascolto e buono studio a tutti!!! CIAO MAMMA 🖐  :)

Tässä podcastin jaksossa pohdin työpaikalla tapahtuvaa rupattelua. Rupatellaan siis yhdessä! Auttaako jutteleminen tekemään tekemään työt tehokkaammin?

Oletko työpaikkasi rupattelija, fokusoija, strategi, rentoutuja vai verkostoituja?
Alla linkki maksulliseen artikkeliin, jossa käsitellään rupattelua työpaikalla, sillä tuoreen tutkimuksen mukaan epämuodollinen rupattelu työkavereiden kanssa lisää työ­tyytyväisyyttä ja voi auttaa työskentelemään tehokkaammin.
