商務英語播客 第40課:含糊地表達(下)
This is the second in our two-part Business English Pod series on strategically using vague language. Last time we covered being vague to make a polite excuse or to avoid sounding arrogant. We saw how you can use vague language to create flexibility.
今天是有關使用“含糊的語言”的2節(jié)英語商務播客中的第2節(jié)。上次我們學習了用含糊的語言來表示禮貌的借口來避免聽起來傲慢。我們看到如何使用模糊的語言來靈活地創(chuàng)造。
Today we’ll work on referring to vague numbers and learn language you can use when you don’t remember the name of someone or something. You’ll also practice some more strategic uses of vague language, such as avoiding socially inappropriate or impolite topics.
