Marie Curie: una vida a la ciencia

This week’s episode is a little slower, a little softer — because I’ve been recovering from COVID. But even in moments of weakness, we can still learn. In this reflective lesson, I share a quiet story from my week in recovery and teach useful, real-life English you can use when you're sick, tired, or just in need of rest.

You’ll learn:

     - How to talk naturally about being sick in English

     - Gentle ways to cancel or reschedule plans

     - Useful expressions like “I’m on the mend” and “I’ve been resting up”

     - A mindfulness prompt to help you practice English through real-life reflection

Whether you’re under the weather or just craving a pause, this immersive episode invites you to slow down and reconnect — with English, and with yourself.

Petit hibou
Monsieur Hibou organise une fête : il est arrière-arrière-arrière-arrière-grand-père. Et, cette fois, c’est un garçon.
À peine éclos, le petit présente déjà un vaste front, signe qu’il deviendra un grand savant comme son illustre ancêtre.
Monsieur Hibou montre fièrement son héritier à chacun des invités en s’écriant :
- Voyez comme il me ressemble !

Firstly We Have To Dive Into Why People Study When They Do Not Have Any Real Purpose Or Need. 

Many people continue studying a language without a pressing need. Often, it’s because they recognize it’s good for personal development or career prospects, or sometimes they simply have extra time on their hands. In other words, they have nothing better to do. It is alright not to have a clear goal on learning a language. It is a known fact some people go about their lives questioning the very meaning of life itself too. The focus of this episode is to add enjoyment to your language learning because when one does not have a real purpose, staying motivated enough to keep on track then becomes a big challenge. When people pursue activities "because it’s good for them," they may struggle with engagement.  (Deci & Ryan, 2000).

En español tenemos muchos verbos. Algunos de estos verbos son muy específicos y los usamos para cosas concretas, son cosas que siempre van asociadas con estos verbos, y que si bien se pueden expresar con un verbo diferente a los nativos nos sonaría un poco extraño.

Espero que disfrutes el episodio y aprendas algo nuevo. Después de escucharlo no te olvides de dejar una valoración en esta plataforma ni de pasarte por mi Instagram para decirme:

-si conocías el uso de estos verbos. 

-si conoces algún otro verbo que expresa algo muy específico.
