    SOBREMESA After the main meal of the day, which usually takes place at around 2 or 3 p.m., the Spanish have traditionally lingered on at table drinking coffee and either chatting or watching TV before returning to work later in the afternoon. If they have more time, they may even have a liqueur or play cards. While estar de sobremesa is also occasionally applied to the period after the evening meal, it is more usually taken to mean after lunch, and the sobremesa time band used in TV programme listings applies only to between 2.00 and 5.00 p.m.

  • 14 speech

    Gen Mgt
    a formal spoken address made to an audience by a speaker. Speeches are made in the context of a meeting or conference or on other occasions such as after a business dinner. The aim of a speech may be to motivate, inspire, or entertain as well as to inform. In contrast to presentations, speeches are a form of public speaking normally made without the assistance of audiovisual aids, and may be wide ranging rather than focusing on a well-defined topic or proposal. Jokes, humorous anecdotes, and quotations are frequently used in speeches. To give a speech successfully requires good communication skills.
