一對一英語口語培訓(xùn):辦公室常用商務(wù)口語
學習一些實用的商務(wù)口語,會讓你在職場中變得更加出色!
1.Better luck next time. 下次會更好!
The expression is used to comfort someone for a minor failure. 對于同事犯的一些小錯誤,可以用Better luck next time. 這句來鼓勵一下,祝他們下次好運。
Example,
Bill: Sorry, I made a mistake.不好意思,我犯了個錯誤。
Mary: Well. Better luck next time. 下次會有好運的。
2. I couldn’t reach him! 我聯(lián)絡(luò)不上他。
"聯(lián)絡(luò)"一詞,用簡簡單單的"reach"就可以表達了。
Example,
Do you know where I can reach him? 你知道我在哪兒能跟他聯(lián)系上嗎?
3. That’s a touchy issue! 這是個辣手的問題!
If something is touchy, it may upset or offend people and should therefore be dealt with carefully. 棘手的,需要小心處理的
Example,
Peter, I’ll try all means to handle the complaint. But you know that’s a touchy issue. 彼得,我會想盡辦法來處理這個投訴。但是你知道這是個棘手的事情。
4.Please come to the point! 有話請直說。
point就是“重點、要點”的意思。come to the point語氣有點強硬,如果還想加強效果的話,還可以加上straight。
Examples:
I'll come straight to the point: we need more money. 我就直說吧:我們還需要錢。
I wish he would get to the point. 但愿他快點說正題。
類似的,還有一個get down to business, 表示“切入主題,切入正題”。
Example,
All right, every one. Let's get down to business. There has been enough chitchat. 好了。讓我們進入正題吧。已經(jīng)閑聊很多了。
5.I’m spaced-out. 我很恍惚。
Someone who is spaced-out feels as if nothing around them is real, usually because they have taken drugs or because they are very tired. spaced-out就是"精神恍惚,魂不守舍"的意思。通常是因為過度疲勞或者因嗑藥所致。
Example,
I was too tired to concentrate on his speech. Actually I am spaced-out all day. 我太累了以致于不能集中于他的講話。事實上,我一天都神魂顛倒的。
