Seño, instead of "flattering" I use the phrasal verb "butter up" which its means algo así como diríamos "hacer la cama" o "dorar la píldora" in order to achieve something you wish. I guess it´s rather colloquial term so probably doesn´t suit to any formal texts, but it sounds kinda funny and sticky coz "butter up" sounds like "moisturing/oiling the situation"... Another Idioms which are quite handy are "to bite the bullet" and " to pull your socks up" when we are refering to make an extra effort to attain some goal. Thanks a lot for the amusing vid. 1-State school/private school . 2-Headmaster-Headteacher (GB) /Principal (Am) 3-Pupils (primary or pre-school)/Students 4-Swot/nerd…(empollón) 5-Toady/suck up (pelotilla) 6-Cheat sheet (chuleta) 7-A levels (bachillerato) 8-Entrance examination for University (equivalente a selectividad) 9-Grade (am letters) /Mark (Gb a number). 10- Degree(carrera)/career(tu periplo académico) 11-Engaging (que engancha, que motiva…) 12-Hands-on (algo muy práctico) 13-Mandatory/compulsory (obligatorio, forzoso). 14- Attend to(acudir a clase)/Assist (es prestar asistencia, ayuda a algo) 15-Cut class/Skip class/play truant/hooky (hacer novillos) 16-Drop out (abandonar,dejarlo 17-To ace an exam (clavar el examen) 18-To cram (atiborrarte de estudiar) 19-To do/sit/take/make an exam. 20-To revise (Br) /review (am) 21-To pass with flying colours 22-The teachers pet (el prefe del maestro/a) 23-To hit the books. (Estudiar muy duro) 24-To pull an all-nighter (pegarse toda la noche en vela estudiando) burn the midnight oil (pegarse toda la noche en vela trabajando, o haciendo otras labores) 25-To learn something by heart (aprendértelo como los papagayos sin entender ni papa)

Hi Salva, yes, that's right, to butter someone up is to act friendly in order to get something in return ;-) Good list of vocabulary you prepared from the video. Super job!

Hola Mónica, gracias por tus videos, son grandiosos. Con este me surgió una duda con respecto al término equivalente a selectividad. Me desconcierta un poco la palabra Spanish al principio del término, ya que no comprendo si se refiere a un examen de español o a un examen en una universidad española. ¿Cómo lo diríamos si fuera un examen de otra materia o de otra universidad? Espero puedas explicarme a qué se refiere y algún otro ejemplo. Muchas gracias!!!

The problem I have today is remembering how to spell the words and say them are when conversating the word it self . In stead of saying I walk the distance of 8 miles I just learned(" traverse") what it means and I can now shorten my sentence cause traverse mean to travel across are though a distance. It's finding a way to say it . (I walked, traveled a distance of 8 miles . ) How do I say it like this with traverse being used ? To shorten all these words with traverse it's meaning to travel across are though. If I'm right here I go (travers 8 miles through trees 🌴 ). Is this right this is what I believe we been trying to do and how the Bible was written books cause if we don't shorten sentences and word use then how big a book would be with all those words and how we got so many other words to shorten a sentence. We could never explain this to students kids are are self cause we got so many other things going on in our minds .

Ive heard as a "teacher's pet" as another term as "pelotilla de la clase". Is that so? Ups, actually I look like just that....
2 жыл бұрын
Hahahah, well, the teacher’s pet has more to do with the teacher and not with the student. That student might be the teacher’s pet but perhaps he or she is not doing anything in particular. On the flip side, el pelota is the student who is constantly trying to get on the teacher’s good side… Really, are you a swot in real life? Interesting! 😉
@jonyer19802 жыл бұрын
@ all right, now I got the picture... After all, we have to confess as human beings that every single teacher loves to be bribed & has his/her own pet hidden in some place of their heard.... don't you? Hahaha Btw, don't assume that I'm a swot by any means...but also a diligent student with your lessons! I really wish to sign in to your EOI for my C1 this incoming season, but I'm sadly into breeding stage right now and I'm getting throw a lot this past two years :( Take it easy colleague!

Headmaster/headmister is not the same as headteacher
9 ай бұрын
Hi! Yes, headteacher is a general term, while headmaster is a term for a male headteacher, and headmistress is a term for a female headteacher. A woman can be a headteacher but not a headmaster. Headteacher is non gender specific. Cheers!
