商業英文用在哪?商業英文的範圍很廣泛,包含信件、公文、合約、簡報及會議都會使用到一定程度的商業英文。而最容易有互動(也是最容易出錯的時候)就是在進行會議的過程,不管用字遣詞或行為尺度都需要表現得體,才能給對方留下深刻印象。今天給大家帶來商業英文會議需要注意的行為以及語句,在下次的會議中,讓你更加好溝通唷!

情境四 | 各種表達方式

*Play Agree and disagree 表現同意與不同意

我同意。

I'd like to support his remarks.

Please speak a little bit louder.

我們想法有點不一致。

I'm sorry, but that's not what I meant.

情境五 | 語氣會有很大的差別

面對誤解的時候:
That's not what I mean. (X)
You miss understand what I said. (X)
There are some miss understanding. (O)

解釋、澄清的時候:
Do you understand? (X)
Are there any problems? (X)
Have I made myself clear? (O)

吸引注意的時候:
Hey! Hello! Hola! (X)
I want to say something. (X)
Pardon me. Excuse me. May I have a word? (O)

請求重複的時候:
Repeat please. (X)
Say it one more time. (X)
Could you run it one more time please? (O)

不同想法的時候:
Nope, that's not what I think. (X)
I don't agree with you. (X)
I'm afraid we have different opinions. (O)

不知道有沒有發現,以"我們"代替"我",多使用"請、麻煩、不好意思",儘量用"我"而不是"你"。這樣在溝通的時候,自然而然就會覺得你非常有禮貌。商業英文中最重要的就是禮儀部分,只要小心留意,在會議中就會顯得格外友善、好溝通喔!
