Nowadays, many different incomprehensible foreign words, which are very difficult for an uninitiated person to understand. Can you tell right away what naming or catering is? Meanwhile, in fact, everything is very simple - and we bring to your attention a comic dictionary in which these words are explained - and with the help of pictures from good old cartoons and books.

Downshifting is moving from a city to a village or even to completely wild and deserted places. The pioneers of downshifting in our country were, of course, Uncle Fedor and the cat Matroskin.

Catering sounds completely incomprehensible. But in fact - ordinary catering. That is, organizing weddings, banquets, buffets using mobile cooks and waiters. In general, it’s as old as time - all right, a feast, and a wedding.

Cleaning - this is where they completely screwed up. Simply put, this is cleaning premises: apartments or offices. Ordinary cleaners are now pathetically called cleaning specialists. The unlucky and dirty Fedora is also a cleaning specialist.

Consulting - everything is simple here too. This is consulting and distributing advice on a variety of business-related issues. Sometimes consulting firms offer ready-made strategies for future enrichment, just like Alice the fox and Basilio the cat, famous experts in this industry.

At first glance, coaching is almost no different from consulting. But there is nuance! Consulting specialists provide ready-made models for solving problems, and a coach allows you to reveal your own inner potential, like, for example, regular chess lessons with a teacher. The Great and Terrible Goodwin from The Wizard of Oz was an excellent coach - with the help of simple tricks he helped the Scarecrow, the Tin Woodman, and the Brave Lion to believe in themselves, and each of them went on to have a wonderful career.

Merchandising is very simple. This correct design showcases, counters - so that the desired product catches the eye. :) Look how the suddenly rich Tsokotukha Fly evaluates the efforts of local market merchandisers.

Naming is coming up with names for various companies, products, enterprises and other things. Nothing new, we all watched “Captain Vrungel” and have known for a long time that “whatever you call a yacht, that’s how it will sail.” By the way, do you remember that at first the yacht was called not even “Trouble”, but “Victory”? Just two letters, but what difference does it make...

Recruiting is just a search for employees. This priest found himself a good worker, Balda, and very cheaply!

Well, that’s all for now... But we will definitely continue working on our dictionary. We will not refuse your help - we are waiting for your suggestions and comments!
