与国外上司之间的常用沟通口语(在线收听

 1. 请假

Would it be possible for me to take the day off this Friday?
这个星期五,我是否可以休一天假?
请求休假用take the day off。如果是两天以上就用days off。上司可能会很干脆地答应说 "That'll be OK.",也可能会不悦地回答"Will everything be all right?(一切都安排就绪了吗?)"。这些都要看你平时的工作表现而定。
2. 提议
I think we need to buy a new copier.
我想我们需要买一台新的复印机。
说出这句话之前,必须要说明"Our copying machine has broken down again.(复印机又出毛病了。)"以作为提案的依据。客气一些的提议,可用"suggest"来表达,如"I would suggest we buy a new copier."
3. 表示了解上司的指示
Yes, of course.
是,我知道了。
也可以用"I understand.(我明白了。)",或"Yes, right away.(好的,马上去做。)"对上司说"OK"或 "all right"并不恰当。如果你很忙,应该说"I'm sorry, but I'm busy now. Could I do it later?"
4. 确认上司指示的内容
You did say next Tuesday at 2:00 p.m., didn't you?
您是说在下星期二下午2点,是不是?
任何事都必须确认一下。如果对方是外国人更要如此。上句也可以直截了当地说"Let me confirm.(让我确认一下时间和日期。)"
5. 报告商谈结果
I had a feeling he was in favor of the plan.
我觉得他赞成那个计划。
记住"I have a feeling (that)…(我觉得……)",以及"…(that) he was against the plan.(他反对那个计划。)"这两句话,都是非常有用的哦!
