标题

今天给大家总结分享一些外企工作可能会遇到的一些口语表达,希望对大家能有所帮助,也欢迎大家补充其他场景和英语表达。

场景一:拒绝/接受对方邀请

I'd like to introduce you to the new members of the project group. Would you mind us having lunch together?

我想要给你介绍项目组的新成员, 我们一起共进午餐如何?



如果无法成行,被邀请人应委婉地向对方回绝:

I'm sorry, but I have another appointment.

对不起,我另有约会。



如果欣然接受,可以说:

That sounds great.

那太好了。



在商量好时间、地点之后,双方都应准时赴约。一般说来,在吃饭时,大家会谈论一些轻松的与生意无关的话题,当餐具被收起,甜点上桌后,就可以提议:

Can we talk a little bit about the project?

我们能否谈谈有关的工作计划?



这样双方就比较自然地转入工作话题了。



午餐结束后,应由邀请方料理付账的事情:

We'll take care of the bill.

我们来付账。



双方告别时,邀请方要向接受邀请的对方道谢:

We're glad you joined us.

我们非常高兴您的赏光。



电子邮件的句子和词汇

现在的贸易合作讲究迅速快捷,于是产生了电子商务,e-business。而电子商务的其中一个重要的实现途径就是电子邮件e-mail了。



I want to set up an e-mail account.

我想申请个电子邮件帐户。



What’s wrong with my e-mail? It can’t get through.

出什么问题了?我的邮件怎么发不出去了?



Could you please check the e-mail for me?

能帮我查收一下邮件么?



The e-mail you sent yesterday was returned as undeliverable.Maybe you should check the address.

你昨天发的邮件被退回来了。你是不是应当查查地址是否正确。



相关词汇:

attachment 附件

junk mail 垃圾邮件

cc- carbon copy 抄送

bcc- blind carbon copy 暗抄送

快速适应陌生的环境

很多人在刚到一个陌生的环境之后,会觉得浑身不自在,需要一段时间来适应。今天我们来学几个跟这种情况相关的表达。



第一个是trying to find my feet,意为“我正在努力适应新环境”。其它类似说法还有: 

I'm trying to orientate myself.

我在尽力适应。 

I'm trying to settle in.

我在努力习惯(新工作/新居等) 

I'm learning the ropes.

我正在学习掌握窍门。 



下面我们来看一个关于适应新环境的对话,注意里面的习语:



Gordon:US 8, UK 42. ferrare cavallo. heel…(lying on couch &examining a pair of shoes)

戈登:美国码8号、英国码42号、意大利真皮、鞋后跟……(躺在沙发上,反复观看一双皮鞋)  



Katherine:Hurry up! you'll be late for work. What are you doing?

凯瑟琳:快点!你快迟到了,你在干什么? 



Gordon:I'm a little bit worried about my new job. I'm trying to find my feet.

戈登:我只是有点担心新工作,我正尝试适应新环境。



Katherine:That's the trouble then. You deserve the boot.

凯瑟琳:问题就在这里,你真该被解雇。



Gordon:Why?

戈登:为什么? 



Katherine:You work in a shoe shop and if you don't even know where your feet are, then there's no future for you there. Now get a move on before I put my foot in your mouth.

凯瑟琳:你在鞋店工作,但居然不知自己脚踏何地,我觉得你在鞋店也不会有什么前途。你再不动身,别怪我不客气了。



Gordon:Alright, alright, I'm leaving.

戈登:好的,好的,我马上出门。

为别人加油打气

1.hold your horses, Sally.

萨利,你要沉住气。

“沉住气”意指“耐心等待”或“保持镇静”。有时人们往往由于心急而行事莽撞,结果把事情搞糟。此情景中“沉住气”一般可用hold one's horses来表达。

Hold your horses, Sally.Just wait with patience. Or you'll screw it up.

萨利,你要沉住气。就耐心等着吧。否则你会搞砸的。



2.I don't enjoy seeing you twiddling your thumbs.

我不想看你闲得无聊。

细心的人会发现,人闲着没事干的时候往往会坐在一旁玩弄自己的大拇指,这个习语就是表达了这个意思。

What did you do all this morning? I don't enjoy seeing you twiddling your thumbs.

你今天一早上都干嘛了!我不想看你闲得无聊。

idea被毙掉了

shoot down

例句-1:At the meeting this morning they didn't waste time shooting down my idea. They decided the cost of opening the offices was too high and the chances of making a real profit too small.

早上参加会议的人认为开设那个办事处的费用太高,而赢利的机会又太小。于是他们毫不迟疑地否决我开设那个办事处的主意。

所以shoot down在这儿表示放弃或者否定某种想法或者方案。



shoot for

例句-2:Congress is rushing to finish work on new laws. They're shooting for adjournment in two weeks so all the members can hurry home and start campaigning for the election.

国会目前正赶着完成新立法的制定。他们的目标是在两星期后休会,以使所有的议员都能赶回家乡去开展竞选活动。

这里的shoot for意思是试图达到某一目标或者取得某种结果。

描述自己的工作

1. My work is very interesting, but stressful too.

我的工作很有趣,但是也很有压力。

2. I am just stuck in a rut, doing the same things every day. I wish I could do something different.

我的工作一成不变,每天都做同样的事,我希望能做点不同的事情。

3.I would like to get a job within couching distance.

我想找个离家很近的工作。

4. I am swamped with work.

我的工作很忙。

5. I often work late into night. Every morning I need to be coffeed up before starting my work.

我经常工作到深夜,每天早上都得喝杯咖啡提提神才能开始一天的工作。

6.I wish there could be a course on surviving the office jungle.

我真希望有个课程教我们如何在办公室中生存。

7. I hate my dead-end, crappy job.

我恨死了这个没有任何前途、烦人的工作。

8. I consider my work here as stepping stone for a promising future in this industry.

我把这份工作看作是在业内大展宏图的踏脚石。

9. We're often pulling some long hours, but without extra pay.

我们常常加班,可是没有加班工资。

10. He landed a good job immediately after his graduation.

他一毕业就找到了一份不错的工作。

标题

办公室聊天开场白

当我们遇到办公室里的同事,就可以这样问:

Good morning! How are you today?

早上好!你今天好吗?

How are you this morning/afternoon/evening? (being more specific may get a more specific answer)

你今天上午/下午/晚上好吗?(问得更具体所得到的答案也可能更具体)



而如果是其他人问你,那么我们可以这样来回答:

I'm great actually—thanks for asking!

我很好,谢谢关心!

I'm alright—a bit tired.

我还好,就是有点累。

Really good, thanks. I'm getting excited for the weekend. (then explain why you're excited)

非常好,谢谢。我正为周末感到兴奋呢。(然后可以解释自己为何兴奋)

Can't complain!

好得没话说!



回答完后还可以问上一句:

How about yourself?

你如何呢?

饭局上和老外轻松交流

谈论很多事情时都需要一个轻松愉快的环境,那么如何在饭局上和老外轻松交流呢?

1. Please pass the salt.

请把盐递给我。

2. If you don't like fish, just set it aside.

你要是不喜欢吃鱼,就把它放到一边。

3.Please excuse me for a moment.

对不起,我离开一下。

4.Excuse me. could I see the menu, please?

打扰一下,我能看一下菜单吗?

5. I'd like to have another helping, thanks.

我想再要一份,谢谢。

6. What a delicious meal! Thank you very mush.

晚餐真棒,非常感谢。

7. Thank you, but I really can't eat another bite.

谢谢,但我一口都吃不下。

8. Cheers! To your health.

为您的健康干杯。

如何和领导沟通

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!

如何夸奖同事或朋友

1. He is that rare combination of gifted writer and great newshound, an exceptional journalist with both narrative and investigative skills.

他是天才作家和伟大新闻记者的罕见组合,一个拥有叙述和调查技巧的杰出记者。

gifted:有才华的;有天赋的

exceptional:优越的,杰出的;例外的,独特的,异常的



2. Furiously independent, wise and resourceful in every way, he is an engine of good sense and sound judgment, a tireless worker who insists on fairness and accuracy.

在各方面具有强烈的独立性,智慧并且资源丰富,他是敏锐合理判断的引擎,一个坚持公正准确的不知疲倦的工作者。

in every way:在各方面

good sense判断力强,通情达理,好眼光

sound judgment合理判断



3. He is a tough and tenacious reporter, and a decent and genuine soul.

他是一个坚韧,顽强的记者,正派,真诚。



4. His generosity, calm nature and constant good humor have made the longest days seem shorter, the largest obstacles surmountable.

他慷慨,平和的本性及一贯的幽默感让最长的一天似乎变短,最大的障碍也能克服。

constant good humor 一贯的幽默感



5. As we worked together, I came to rely on him heavily and trust him completely.

当我们一起工作时,我非常依赖他,并完全信任他。

rely on him:依赖他,依靠他



(着重记这些形容词)

如何吐槽工作烦心事

I got sacked.

我被解雇了。

You have been demoted.

你被降职了。

I heard that five people are going be laid off next month.

我听说公司下个月要裁掉五个员工。

I am only a regular 9-to-5er.

我只是一个平凡的朝九晚五上班族。

I have to wear a suit to work.

我上班得穿西装。

My working hours are not fixed.

我的工作时间不固定。

We go off shift at six in the evening.

我们每天下午六点下班。

如何夸领导

It's really impressive the way you run this company.

您经营这家公司的模式真是令人印象深刻。

I look forward to coming to work every day.

我每天都迫不及待来上班。

You're the best-dressed boss around.

您是这里穿得最有型的主管。

You're my idol.

您是我的偶像。

I really admire your decision-making ability.

我很钦佩您的决策能力。

You're too young to be a professor...

您当教授实在太年轻了……

Could you autograph your book for me, please?

能否帮我在您写的书上签名?

Your teaching is so inspiring.

您的教学真是让人如沐春风。

标题

不知道前两节课的学习对大家有没有帮助呢,今天继续学习,大家想看哪方面的口语知识也可以留言评论哦,普特君会尽力为大家寻找整理资源。看了大家的留言,画风还是非常好滴,比心~



“发牢骚”

1. How am I to know what I'm supposed to do if there's no organization around here?

如果这里那么没有条理,我怎么晓得该做些什么好呢?



2.I want you to stop hogging my desk space, all right?

你不要再占用我的桌子,好吗?



3.Don't talk to me while I'm in the middle of calculation.

我在计算时,别跟我说话。



4.Oh,why did he have to give me this rush job now that it's almost time for my lunch break!

哎,快到午餐休息时间了,他为什么非给我这个急件不可!



5.I know I made a mistake. I just wish he wouldn't keep hammering away at it.

我知道我犯错误了。我真希望他不要一直骂个不停。



6.Doing this mindless work all day is going to drive me crazy。

整天做这种不用动脑筋的工作,会使我发疯的。



7.Why do I have to do all these extra needless little jobs anyway?

不管怎样,为什么我得做所有这些多余的、不必要的琐碎工作?

感谢用语

1.Thanks a million. I really appreciate it.

万分感谢,真的是帮了我大忙啦。



2.I really appreciate what you’ve done for me these days.

我真的很感激这些天来你对我的帮助。



3.It’s very kind of you to help me.

你能帮助我真是太好了。



4.I really don’t know what I would have done without your help.

真不知道没有你的帮助我该怎么办。



5.Thank you for contributing so much to the pleasure of our staying.

感谢您给我们在这里停留期间带来的那么多欢乐。



6.Thank you so much for your generous hospitality.

非常感谢您慷慨的款待。



7.Thank you very much (ever so much) (most sincerely) (indeed)(from the bottom of my heart).

很(非常)(最真诚地)(确实)(衷心)感谢您。



8.It's generous of you to take so much interest in my work( to give me so much of your time) (to show me so much consideration).

承蒙您对我的工作如此操心(为我花费这么多时间)(对我如此关怀)。



9.I want to thank you for your kindness to me and for your compliments.

我要感谢您对我的友爱和问候。

千万不能这样和领导说话

不要命令

总是要避免命令的口气出现。说"give me some time off"你的老板听到后决不会感到高兴。取而代之,礼貌的开始你的请求,例如"I'd like to request some annual leave"或是"I'd appreciate it if you could give me your feedback."



不要在使用"I need"

老是谈论你"need"的会让你显得很霸道并且容易得罪人,因此试着用问讯的口气取而代之。象"could you please...?" and "would you be able to...?" 的短语是表达你的请求的最佳礼貌的方式。



避免假定的情况发生        

如果你的老板很酷的话,你可以试试,说 "I'm going to leave a bit early today," 但是最好不要以控制人的语气并假设老板绝对不会为难你"would it be OK if I slipped out a bit early today?"或是 "would you be opposed to my taking off around 4:30?"是请求批准的绝佳的方式。



掌握好指责的尺度

如果你的经理好象把你的申请给忘了,不要指责他或她没有尽责任, "where are those figures i asked for?" 作为简单有效的提醒,你可以只是说,例如"i was wondering if you've had the chance to calculate those figures."这是对你老板善意的提醒他答应的事的好方法。



再试一次

如果你的经理拒绝了你的一项请求,放弃可能是最简单的解决方法。但是,如果你真的非常期望得到某项批准时,清晰的表达你的理由并说"please reconsider my request."

上班迟到

常用理由:

I was tied up with some urgent business.

有急事脱不开身。

My bus was late again.

是的,公共汽车又来迟了。



致歉:

Sorry.

I'm really / awfully / terribly sorry.

I cannot tell you how sorry I am.

Please forgive me. I don't mean that.

Please forgive my carelessness.

Please excuse me. I have to run.



接受道歉:

That's okay.

It's nothing.

It doesn't matter at all.

Never mind.

Don't worry about that.

Just forget it.



常用句型:

I'm really sorry to be late again.

I'm awfully sorry. I didn't realize.

It was wrong of me.

I hope you will excuse me.

I apologize for that.

but I'm afraid I'll have to put off the meeting.

标题

欢迎新同事

公司总会不断有新的力量加入。当这些新人抱着希望来到你的公司时,一定要欢迎并为他热情介绍新同事和新领导。这样,新人们才能更快地融入到这个团队中来。



Welcome to join our company.

欢迎加入我们公司。

如何婉转的“批评”和“接受”

批评的话恐怕没有几个人爱听,万一说的不合适,吵起来也有可能。但是,工作真的做的不好的时候,该批评还是得批评。其实,批评也是门艺术。看看这些常用的批评语句,也许你下次就用上了呢。



Unfortunately, this is not up to standard/not up to par.

很不幸,您的工作不合格/
