Hola a todos y bienvenidos a este nuevo episodio de este podcast de español para principiantes. Bueno, yo soy Shirley y hoy vamos a aprender cómo presentarnos y cómo saludar en español. ¿Están listos? ¡Estoy muy emocionada de acompañarlos en este viaje de aprendizaje! Entonces, comencemos.

En español, cuando conoces a alguien por primera vez es común presentarte diciendo tu nombre. Por ejemplo, puedes decir: "Hola me llamo Shirley" "Hola me llamo Andrés" "Hola me llamo Reika" "Hola me llamo Amanda". Así que es una manera muy común de presentarse.
Muy bien, ahora vamos a aprender algunas formas básicas de saludar, el saludo más común es: "Hola". Es simple. Y puedes usarlo en cualquier momento, en la mañana, en la tarde o en la noche. Hola. También es bueno saber el saludo según la hora del día. Entonces por la mañana decimos: "Buenos días". 

En la tarde decimos "Buenas tardes" Repite conmigo. Y por la noche, "Buenas noches". ¿Puedes repetirlo conmigo? Repitan conmigo: Buenos días, buenas tardes, y buenas noches. Ahora, ¿Cómo responder cuando alguien te dice: "Buenos días, ¿cómo estás?" Puedes decir: "Buenos días, estoy bien gracias y ¿tú?" Muy bien. Gracias y tú. ¿Entonces? "Buenos días, ¿cómo estás? Estoy bien gracias". Muy bien es la manera natural de empezar una conversación. Es la manera de ser cordial. ¿Y ahora cómo decimos goodbye, cómo decimos "Adiós"? ¿Cómo nos despedimos? Bueno ya dije algo "adiós". También puedes decir "Hasta luego". "Chao". "Hasta pronto". "Nos vemos pronto" "Nos vemos mañana". Esas son algunas de las maneras de decir adiós. Chao, hasta luego.

In this Chillchat episode, Karen and Baiwei compared education and examination systems in Mainland China and the U.S..

The Most Important Exam in China?! Education and Examination Systems

More than seven out of 10 Americans have been dishonest when trying to get a job, according to a new survey.

A company called ResumeTemplates asked 1,250 people in the US about how honest they are when looking for jobs, doing interviews or taking tests during the hiring process.

And 71% of US job seekers said they'd been dishonest.

One of the most common things to do was to give a false reference. Almost half of the participants said they'd done this.

Some said they didn't have a real reference to give, while others said their last boss didn't like them.

But people said they'd been dishonest all through the hiring process. More than one in five people said they'd lied on their resume.

Some companies give people tests during the hiring process — and 22% of people said they'd used Google, artificial intelligence software or the help of others to answer test questions.

So does being dishonest work?

The answer to that question might be "sometimes" — only around three out of 10 people said they had gotten caught.

Of course, that doesn't mean being dishonest is the right thing to do.

However, a 2023 survey by a company called Resume Builder found that it's not just people looking for jobs who lie.

In fact, the survey of more than 1,000 hiring managers found that almost 40% have lied to people in job interviews.
