In this 1 minute episode I will be discussing 'British Politeness'.

Please find the transcript of the episode below.

Welcome to this British English podcast. 

In this episode I'll be discussing the topic 'British politeness'.

Brits, which is short for 'British people', are often known for being polite. 

Polite means "showing respect for other people". For example, many Brits often say 'please and thank you'.

In Britain, people often say 'sorry'. They use the word 'sorry' in many different situations. For example,

"sorry I'm late!" or if a person bumps into you, they will often say 'sorry' very quickly. 

 British people are indirect when speaking. For example, a British person wouldn't say
"give me the salt", instead they would say "could you pass me the salt, please?". 

Finally, British people love to queue. 
To queue means 'to wait in line'. They queue for everything! Especially the bus!

British Politeness

Negotiations are a dance – a balance between collaboration and advocating for your position. Confidence is, of course, key, and the language you use plays a crucial role in conveying it. 

Here's how to harness the power of words in three key areas:

1. Framing & Highlighting Value:

Start Strong: Open with a positive, confident statement that positions your value. Instead of "We're happy to discuss this opportunity," try "Our solution has a proven track record of increasing sales by X%."

Focus on Benefits: Shift the conversation from features to the benefits your offer brings. Don't just say "Our software is user-friendly," explain how it "streamlines workflows and saves your team time."

2. Concession Language with Strength:

Conditional Agreements: Acknowledge their points without conceding defeat. Use phrases like "That's a valid concern. To address it, we can offer..." This shows you're listening while steering the discussion.

"We Can" vs. "We Might": Use strong verbs that project confidence. "We can offer a discount for a bulk order" sounds more assured than "We might be able to consider a discount."

3. Closing the Deal with Clarity:

Active Voice & Ownership: Phrases like "We propose a contract with..." sound stronger than "Perhaps we could have a contract."

Summarize & Confirm: Recap key points and confirm next steps. End with "By finalizing the contract today, we can begin implementation next week"

Confident language isn't about aggression; it's about clear, persuasive communication. By strategically using these tips, you'll project confidence, effectively advocate for your value, and navigate negotiations with power and professionalism.

LOS TRES PLATILLOS MEXICANOS MÁS CONOCIDOS EN EL MUNDO.

La gastronomía mexicana integra elementos tradicionales y culturales que la hacen amplia, extensa, variada y deliciosa. Ésta es conocida en todo el mundo, sin embargo, hay ciertos platillos que sobresalen y son identificados a nivel mundial como mexicanos.

#1  Los tacos son sumamente conocidos en el mundo entero y se asocian directamente a la cultura mexicana; esto se debe en gran parte a que su elemento principal es la tortilla de maíz, la cual es esencial en la alimentación en México. Los derivados de la tortilla como los chilaquiles o las enchiladas, son también conocidos, pero definitivamente los tacos se llevan las palmas al identificarse como uno de los platillos mexicanos más conocidos en el extranjero.

#2 El pozole, que también se deriva del maíz, específicamente del maíz cacahuazintle, el cual tiene granos más grandes y duros y es ideal para la preparación de este plato.

El pozole puede ser de carne de puerco, de pollo e incluso hay versiones vegetarianas elaboradas con champiñones y flor de calabaza. Se acompaña generalmente de lechuga picada, orégano, rábanos y una buena salsa. En algunas regiones del país también se le acompaña con aguacate o chicharrón.

#3 El mole, que es otro de los platillos más emblemáticos de nuestra gastronomía.

La mezcla de chiles, especias, semillas y frutos dan como resultado esta maravillosa comida que es tan especial. Durante mucho tiempo el mole con pollo y arroz fue considerado el platillo para las celebraciones por excelencia, pues éste se servía principalmente en bodas, bautizos, cumpleaños, etcétera.
