大家从小到大学英文的基本沟通能力是不错的。
但这往往局限于和英文程度相近的人,
网友说当面临商务会议或者是旅游过程中遇到

“老外”,
会遭遇一些英文用法不恰当带来的尴尬场面。
如果你有类似的体验,想告诉你,
让你口中的英文让人感觉“专业+国际化+有礼貌”用语-part 1:

1)Can you give me the book?
这个用法我们听来可是十分不礼貌的。"Can"在这里是指一种能力,这句话等于是在问你有没有把书递给我的能力,除非身体有缺陷,相信四肢健全的人都能做到这件事。这样说才对:---Could you please give me the book?

2)What‘s your problem?
这句话日常生活中很常听到,要提醒大家一定不要用错。不然可能会被打。。。"What s your problem?" 表达的意思并不是“你的问题是什么?” 而是“你有毛病啊?聊天的时候一定注意啦!要这样说才对:
---Do you have any other questions?

3)Give you.
我们把东西给别人时会说“拿去吧!” 但是在英文中可不能直接翻译成"Give you"。正确说法应该是:---Here you are.

4)I'm boring.
很多使用这句话的人想表达的意思都是,我觉得好无聊。但是,I'm boring实际上表达的意思是“我这个人很无趣”哦。
觉得无聊应该这样说才对:I’m bored.

5)I will remember you forever.
我会永远记住你…只有感情真的很深很深才会用到这句话。不然,在英文对话当中,用"forever"有点太夸张,太戏剧化了,毕竟沒有人能活到"forever"。如果分别应该这样说才对:---I’ll always remember you.

先分享这么多免得一时间大家看到我乱78糟的中文晕了,
在用英文交谈时一定要用正确的说法才是重点,期待PART 2吧!


HOW DO YOU PLAN?

1️⃣Identify your goals and activities (To-Do-List) at hand.

The first step to setting a plan is to establish your goals and respective activities that will help you achieve your goals.

This comes in where one has made resolutions for the entire year.

It is usually difficult to identify what your goals and activities are if you have never made any resolutions in the first place.

So, I think the pre-requisit to planning is having resolutions in place.

What do you plan on achieving on a daily, weekly, monthly and yearly basis? What activities will help you achieve your goals?

Is it to read four books every month?
Is it to exercise more often?
Is it to attend seminars?

This is very important.

Now, care must be exercised when identifying your activities.
Some activities are not just relevant. Please take note.

2️⃣List your goals and activities down.

Once you have established your goals and activities,
the next step is to list them down.

Yes, list them. What are your daily, weekly, monthly and yearly goals?
What are the respective activities?

List them... Even if they are unrealistic, list them!

💟未完,待续💟
