A waiter or waitress is traditionally defined as a “servant who waits at tables.” In English, the emphasis is placed on the act of waiting. In Spanish, however, the focus tends to shift toward the table itself: One common term is mesero, derived from mesa (“table”). Another term used is mozo, which can mean “boy,” “servant,” or “waiter,” depending on the context.

I’ve begun watching Spanish speakers talking about books on YouTube and I’m surprised how well I understand spoken Spanish, given how little I can *speak* Spanish and how little practice I’ve had listening to Spanish before now. My comprehension is very far from perfect, but it’s still a bit weird.
