Part 2 of 6. 

Jack, a pocket-sized blue book with yellow text and white pages, climbed up the library steps, knocked on the modern glass doors and was let in by the security guard. It was an hour before the library opened to the public. 

“Mornin’ Jack,” said the security guard. “I’ve been dying to see you this morning. Could you whip me up a Frappuccino?” 

Jack’s life swirled around coffee. Not only was it his profession, it was his passion and life’s purpose. The library café had been in his family for six generations. Ever since Jack was capable of walking on his two feet, he was working at the café. In due time, Jack had mastered all aspects of coffee making, from grinding and roasting beans to excellent customer service, and everything in between. His father supervised him closely, making sure their state-of-the-art coffee machine was used properly. When Jack was ready, his mother showed him how to create artistic designs using the frothed milk. 

“You’ll have to wait a bit longer,” replied Jack. “I’ve got some extra housekeeping to do this morning. I’ll get it to you at opening time.” 

The island café was placed in the center of the public sitting area. It was surrounded by seven medium-sized tables. Today Jack had to prepare a new shipment of Columbian beans by grinding them and storing them away. After doing that, he mopped around the seating area and wiped the tables. Finally, Jack sliced some cheese for his most popular item, the cheese bread rolls. 

Jack switched on his beloved coffee machine and listened to it hum as it warmed up. With his hand on the steam wand, Jack caught his reflection in the pressure and temperature dials of the machine. Looking back at him was a newly-discovered shiny white hair.

The surprising way each finger could influence your learning style

In Episode 85 of 111 Tips for Learning a Language, we explore the gentle but powerful role of touch in language learning.
Your hands are not just tools—they are memory-makers.
We talk about:

How smooth textures calm the mind for easier vocabulary learning.

How rough textures sharpen focus for grammar and pronunciation.

How asymmetrical surfaces help with irregular language patterns.

How organic textures (like leaves, fur, or fruit) lower anxiety and make speaking feel safer.

How inorganic textures (like keyboards and books) boost procedural memory for writing and spelling.

How different fingers—from the grounding thumb to the communicative little finger—may influence learning focus.

With science, sensory awareness, and a touch of metaphysical insight, this episode helps you “feel” your way into new words and phrases.

exclusión de todo otro uso, y que el arrendatario no podrá, por consiguiente, ceder,

mientras una de las partes no notifique a la otra, en el plazo de 15 días antes de la
fecha de vencimiento del contrato o de algunas de sus eventuales prórrogas, su deseo
de darlo por terminado. En cualquier caso, si el arrendatario quisiera desistir del
cumplimiento total del contrato, deberá indemnizar al arrendador con una cantidad
equivalente a una mensualidad de la renta en vigor por cada año del contrato que reste
por cumplir. Los periodos de tiempo inferior a un año darán lugar a la parte
proporcional de la indemnización.
