Bucket List: Ideas for writing it

Skydiving, going around the world or starting your own business... all these things we'd like to do "before we die" pile up in a corner of our heads. And then, as time goes by, we start to regret not having achieved our dreams or goals...

To make your plans a reality, many psychologists attest to the usefulness of writing a list to start a new dynamic within yourself. Writing this list, called a Bucket List, is exciting, and allows you to get to know yourself better. To help you write it, here are ideas that may awaken your own dreams. Get inspired, formulate your wishes and make the great decision to make them come true. You can use the article How to create a Bucket List to help you write it.

Empecemos con algunas frases Para darle la bienvenida al cliente: 

Thank you for calling customer service. My name is starlin. May I have your name please? 

Algunas compañías piden que digas el nombre de la compañía al abrir la llamada, ejemplo: Thank you for calling ATT, May I have your name please? 

Seguimos con Frases alternativas para ofrecer ayuda: 

How can I help you? ¿Cómo puedo ayudarle?

What can I help you with today? ¿Cómo le puedo ayudar hoy?

Si tienes que  hacer esperar a un cliente, estas expresiones te serán de ayuda: 

A veces, antes de solucionar el problema de un cliente tendrás que hacer alguna comprobación y probablemente hacerle esperar, si es así, estas frases te ayudarán:

Are  you able to hold for a moment while I check on that? ¿Puede esperar un momento mientras lo reviso?

I’ll check and be right back. Lo reviso y vuelvo.

Cuando regreses no olvides darle las gracias por esperarte

Thanks for waiting Mr. Smith. Gracias por su espera Sr. Smith.

Si no entiendes a un cliente, que dices? 

Es posible que en un momento dado, no entiendas a un cliente. Tranquilo no te pongas nervioso, si eso sucede pídele que te lo repita:

I’m sorry but I didn’t understand you exactly. Lo siento, pero no lo entendí exactamente.Could you repeat that, please? ¿Puede repetir eso por favor?

Could You say that again? ¿Puedes decir eso otra vez?

Y si llegan las quejas, que debes decir? 

Los clientes acuden en muchas ocasiones a los servicios de atención al cliente cuando tienen alguna queja. ¿Cómo debes responder? En este caso, el cliente espera que tú le des soluciones a su problema, por lo que tu vocabulario debe ser muy positivo:

I will be more than happy to assist you… Estaré más que feliz de ayudarle.

I completely understand your situation… Puedo entender perfectamente su situación…

What can I do for you right now is… Lo que ahora mismo puedo hacer por usted es…

I assure I will try my best… Le aseguró que haré lo mejor que pueda…

High - The Chainsmokers - Lyrics - Letra y video

Letra en inglés y Vídeo de la canción, High - The Chainsmokers

Lyrics:

Woah, woah
So far, so good
Mhmm, mhm, mhm, yep

Why? You only say you love me when you're high
It's like we go through the same shit every night
Oh why, oh why?
You always swear that it’s gonna change, but it never does
Why? You'll only say you love me when you're high
It's like we go through the same shit every night
Oh why, oh why?
You always swear that shit's gonna change, but it never does

Tell me that you're gonna change
Then act like this instead
I'm too old to want somebody who's always switching up their friends
I can’t make you love me but at least you could pretend
Scripts gonna leads to fifths until I'm fucked out of my head
You play the same old songs I know that you’re different in your Air Force Ones
Filling my prescription I could bite your tongue
Like I got an addiction yeah
You always say this shit’s gonna change, but it never does

Why? You only say you love me when you're high
It's like we go through the same shit every night
Oh why, oh why?
You always swear that it’s gonna change, but it never does
Why? You'll only say you love me when you're high
It's like we go through the same shit every night
Oh why, oh why?
You always swear that shit's gonna change, but it never does

I know it’s my fault I pick up your phone call
When it’s half past one and you’re halfway drunk
You say you love me and it sounds so dumb
But you're the only one I can run away from the same old songs
I know that you’re different in your Air Force Ones
Filling my prescription I could bite your tongue
Like I got an addiction yeah
You always say this shit’s gonna change, but it never does

Why? You only say you love me when you're high
It's like we go through the same shit every night
Oh why, oh why?
You always swear that it’s gonna change, but it never does
Why? You'll only say you love me when you're high
It's like we go through the same shit every night
Oh why, oh why?
You always swear that shit's gonna change, but it never does

Letra en inglés y Vídeo de la canción, Boys Don’t Cry - Anitta

Lyrics:

Sometimes I call you when I can’t sleep
Alone
Now you keep asking me what that means
Oh no

In your feelings
I can feel it your in your feelings
You won’t admit it but
That’s why I push you away from me

Cause I know I know
It drives you crazy
Try to tame me
But nobody’s taking control all over me

Ooh baby baby you be talking tough
But your boys can’t get enough
When the girls don’t need your love
Who says boys don’t cry

Ooh baby baby you just outta touch
Cause your boys can’t get enough
When the girls don’t need your love
Who says boys don’t cry

Sometimes you call me when you’re too drunk
Oh God
Then you start telling me I’m the one
I’m not
In your feelings
I can feel it your in your feelings
You won’t admit it but
I thought that we was just having fun

Cause I know I know
It drives you crazy
Try to tame me
But nobody’s taking control all over me

Ooh baby baby you be talking tough
But your boys can’t get enough
When the girls don’t need your love
Who says boys don’t cry

Ooh baby baby you just outta touch
Cause your boys can’t get enough
When the girls don’t need your love
Who says boys don’t cry

Who says they don’t cry
Who says they don’t cry
Who says They don’t cry

Who says boys don’t cry

Cómo usar Can y Could - Verbos modales

Gramática Inglesa - English Grammar - Recursos Educativos en inglés

Can y could son modales que se utilizan para expresar diferentes matices de posibilidad.

CAN

1 - En primer lugar, el modal can significa lo que uno es capaz de hacer o lo que uno sabe hacer.

Por ejemplo:

• I can play the piano. Puedo tocar el piano.
• I can climb the mountain. Puedo escalar la montaña.

2 - En segundo lugar, el modal can significa lo que se puede hacer.

• You can leave now if you like. Puedes irte ahora si quieres. - Es una especie de permiso.

3 - El tercer significado del modal can es expresar lo que puede ocurrir, lo que es posible. También en este caso se trata de una forma de posibilidad.

Por ejemplo:

The weather can be very bad in this town. El tiempo puede ser muy malo en esta ciudad

En resumen: El primer significado de can, en la forma afirmativa, es expresar diferentes tipos de posibilidades.

Can't o cannot = can en forma negativa

1 - La forma negativa del modal Can se utiliza para expresar lo que no somos capaces de hacer o no podemos hacer.

CAN'T es la contracción de CANNOT. Ambos significan exactamente lo mismo y pueden utilizarse.

Por ejemplo: I can speak French, but I can’t or I cannot speak Japanese. Sé hablar francés, pero no sé o no puedo hablar japonés.

2 - Los modales CAN'T o CANNOT se utilizan para expresar lo que está prohibido.

Por ejemplo: Sorry, you can't go through. Lo siento, no puedes pasar. (No puedes, está prohibido).

3 - Expresar lo que no es posible.

Si me dicen algo que parece realmente increíble, puedo responder:

This cannot be true. Esto no puede ser cierto.

COULD

El modal could puede representar el tiempo pasado de can o el condicional de can.

1 - Uso del modal could en el sentido condicional de can

Ejemplo: I could play the piano, if I had one. Podría tocar el piano, si tuviera uno.

2 - Uso del modal could en el contexto del tiempo pasado

Ejemplo: I could speak Japanese but I stopped practicing, so I can’t anymore. Podía hablar japonés, pero dejé de practicarlo, así que ya no puedo.

La diferencia entre "¿can...?" y "¿could...? :

Cuando se habla en forma interrogativa con CAN o COULD, se puede utilizar para hacer una petición, para expresar una consulta. Por ejemplo, si digo "Can you call me?", estoy preguntando ¿Me puedes llamar? Sin embargo, también es posible decir, Could you call me? ¿Cuál es la diferencia? Es una diferencia en el grado de cortesía.

*** NUNCA utilizamos el modal Can en el tiempo futuro, es decir, nunca diremos "I will can". WILL es un modal y CAN es otro modal y no pondremos dos modales uno tras otro.

The Man and His Two Wives

In the old days, when men were allowed to have many wives, a middle-aged Man had one wife that was old and one that was young; each loved him very much, and desired to see him like herself. Now the Man’s hair was turning grey, which the young Wife did not like, as it made him look too old for her husband. So every night she used to comb his hair and pick out the white ones. But the elder Wife saw her husband growing grey with great pleasure, for she did not like to be mistaken for his mother. So every morning she used to arrange his hair and pick out as many of the black ones as she could. The consequence was the Man soon found himself entirely bald.

Yield to all and you will soon have nothing to yield.

The Nurse and the Wolf

‘Be quiet now,’ said an old Nurse to a child sitting on her lap. ‘If you make that noise again I will throw you to the Wolf.’

Now it chanced that a Wolf was passing close under the window as this was said. So he crouched down by the side of the house and waited. ‘I am in good luck to-day,’ thought he. ‘It is sure to cry soon, and a daintier morsel I haven’t had for many a long day.’ So he waited, and he waited, and he waited, till at last the child began to cry, and the Wolf came forward before the window, and looked up to the Nurse, wagging his tail. But all the Nurse did was to shut down the window and call for help, and the dogs of the house came rushing out. ‘Ah,’ said the Wolf as he galloped away,

‘Enemies promises were made to be broken.’

The Tortoise and the Birds

A Tortoise desired to change its place of residence, so he asked an Eagle to carry him to his new home, promising her a rich reward for her trouble. The Eagle agreed and seizing the Tortoise by the shell with her talons soared aloft. On their way they met a Crow, who said to the Eagle: ‘Tortoise is good eating.’ ‘The shell is too hard,’ said the Eagle in reply. ‘The rocks will soon crack the shell,’ was the Crow’s answer; and the Eagle, taking the hint, let fall the Tortoise on a sharp rock, and the two birds made a hearty meal of the Tortoise.

Never soar aloft on an enemy’s opinions.

The Two Crabs

One fine day two Crabs came out from their home to take a stroll on the sand. ‘Child,’ said the mother, ‘you are walking very ungracefully. You should accustom yourself, to walking straight forward without twisting from side to side.’

‘Pray, mother,’ said the young one, ‘do but set the example yourself, and I will follow you.’

Example is the best precept.

The Ass in the Lion’s Skin

An Ass once found a Lion’s skin which the hunters had left out in the sun to dry. He put it on and went towards his native village. All fled at his approach, both men and animals, and he was a proud Ass that day. In his delight he lifted up his voice and brayed, but then every one knew him, and his owner came up and gave him a sound cudgelling for the fright he had caused. And shortly afterwards a Fox came up to him and said: ‘Ah, I knew you by your voice.

Fine clothes may disguise, but silly words will disclose a fool.

The Two Fellows and the Bear

Two Fellows were travelling together through a wood, when a Bear rushed out upon them. One of the travellers happened to be in front, and he seized hold of the branch of a tree, and hid himself among the leaves. The other, seeing no help for it, threw himself flat down upon the ground, with his face in the dust. The Bear, coming up to him, put his muzzle close to his ear, and sniffed and sniffed. But at last with a growl he shook his head and slouched off, for bears will not touch dead meat.

Then the fellow in the tree came down to his comrade, and, laughing, said ‘What was it that Master Bruin whispered to you?’

‘He told me,’ said the other,‘Never trust a friend who deserts you at a pinch.’

The Two Pots

Two Pots had been left on the bank of a river, one of brass, and one of earthenware. When the tide rose they both floated off down the stream. Now the earthenware pot tried its best to keep aloof from the brass one, which cried out: ‘Fear nothing, friend, I will not strike you.’‘But I may come in contact with you,’ said the other,‘if I come too close; and whether I hit you, or you hit me, I shall suffer for it.’

The strong and the weak cannot keep company.

The Four Oxen and the Lion

A Lion used to prowl about a field in which Four Oxen used to dwell. Many a time he tried to attack them; but whenever he came near they turned their tails to one another, so that whichever way he approached them he was met by the horns of one of them. At last, however, they fell a-quarrelling among themselves, and each went off to pasture alone in a separate corner of the field. Then the Lion attacked them one by one and soon made an end of all four.

United we stand, divided we fall.

The Fisher and the Little Fish

It happened that a Fisher, after fishing all day, caught only a little fish. ‘Pray, let me go, master,’ said the Fish. ‘I am much too small for your eating just now. If you put me back into the river I shall soon grow, then you can make a fine meal off me.’

‘Nay, nay, my little Fish,’ said the Fisher, ‘I have you now. I may not catch you hereafter.’

A little thing in hand is worth more than a great thing in prospect.

Avaricious and Envious

Two neighbours came before Jupiter and prayed him to grant their hearts’ desire. Now the one was full of avarice, and the other eaten up with envy. So to punish them both, Jupiter granted that each might have whatever he wished for himself, but only on condition that his neighbour had twice as much. The Avaricious man prayed to have a room full of gold. No sooner said than done; but all his joy was turned to grief when he found that his neighbour had two rooms full of the precious metal. Then came the turn of the Envious man, who could not bear to think that his neighbour had any joy at all. So he prayed that he might have one of his own eyes put out, by which means his companion would become totally blind.

Vices are their own punishment.
