Developing this activity gave me the opportunity to expand my technical vocabulary in English, particularly in medical terms that are essential in health and educational settings. By exploring definitions and constructing expressions, I improved my reading comprehension and my ability to communicate health concepts accurately and clearly in both languages. In the professional realm, this skill is invaluable; in health promotion and education, effective, bilingual communication allows us to reach a more diverse population, simplifying the understanding of issues related to prevention, treatment, and self-care. This ability will enable me to provide accessible and culturally appropriate information, helping to reduce language barriers and fostering more inclusive and humane care.
