On a Video Call in Spanish
Unmute, share your screen, take turns and wrap up a work video call with a Spanish team.
Video calls in Spanish workplaces are informal and fast: people use tú and vosotros, talk over each other ("pisarse") and close with a warm "que vaya bien". Common words are micro, cámara, compartir pantalla, diapositiva and chat. The cards follow a Monday team call at a logistics company in Valencia where you present the weekly figures.
