Hello everyone and welcome back to Mr. English Channel,

where learning English is easy and fun.

I'm Emily.

Hey there everyone, what's up?

It's your friend Paul here too.

Emily, my dear, how are you feeling today?

All set for some amazing English chat?

I'm great, Paul.

Thank you for asking.

The sun is shining and I'm ready for another fun episode.

How about you?

Are you good?

Oh, I am wonderful, Emily.

Super happy to be here.

I love our podcast days.

They're always so much fun.

Me too.

And today we have a very interesting topic for our lovely listeners, right, Paul?

Yes, exactly.

It's something many people ask us about.

Today we are going to talk about,

drum roll please, business English.

Ta-da!

Yes, business English.

It sounds big, but it's actually very helpful and not so difficult to start.

We will make it easy, as always.

That's our goal.

Let's learn English together.

Perfect.

So, business English.

Paul, what do you think is the first thing people think about when they hear business English?

Hmm, that's a good question.

Maybe meetings?

Or emails?

Yes, I think emails are very common in business.

Yes, good point.

Emails are super important.

When you work, you send many emails every day, right?

So knowing how to write a good email in English is a big part of business English.

Exactly.

And it's different from sending an email to a friend.

You need to be more… formal?

Yes, more formal.

We use different words.

For example, instead of hi,

you can say, dear Mr. Smith or dear Miss Smith.

Oh, yes, that's right.

And at the end, instead of see ya or bye-bye,

you say sincerely or best regards.

Yes, exactly.

These little changes make a big difference.

It shows respect and professionalism.

Ah, professionalism.

That's a key word in business English.

It means you are serious about your work.

Yes, and it's not just about words.

It's also about tone.

In business emails, you usually want to be clear and direct.

Yes, clear and direct.

No long, complicated sentences.

Just get to the point.

What do you want to say?

Say it simply.

That's a great tip, Paul.

Simple is often better, especially when you are learning.

Don't try to use very big,

fancy words if you are not sure.

Simple words are good.

Yes, exactly.

And what about meetings, Emily?

You said meetings are a big part of business English, too.

Oh, yes.

Meetings.

Many businesses have meetings.

And in global companies, these meetings are often in English.

Wow, that can be a bit scary, right?

To speak in a meeting in English?

It can be.

But we can learn some useful phrases.

For example, to start a meeting,

you can say, Good morning, everyone.

Or, Let's start the meeting.

Yes, that's simple.

And if you want to say something,

like, You have an idea.

Good question.

You can say, I have a point to make.

Or, I'd like to add something.

Or simply, Excuse me, I have an idea.

ah very helpful and

100

if you don't understand something what do you say then that's very important you can say could you please repeat

101

that or could you explain that again please

102

or even I'm sorry I don't understand it's okay to ask yes it's always okay to ask for clarification

103

People appreciate it when you want to understand clearly.

104

No one wants mistakes because of misunderstandings.

105

Exactly.

106

And Paul, what about making presentations?

107

Is that part of business English?

108

Oh, definitely.

109

Giving a presentation is a big part of many jobs.

110

You need to present ideas or results to other people.

111

Right.

112

and sometimes you need to present in English what are some

113

simple phrases for starting a presentation hmm you can say hello everyone my name is Paul

114

and today I am going to talk about or welcome everyone today we will discuss very Very good.

115

And what about when you finish?

116

When you finish, you can say,

117

Thank you for your attention.

118

Or That's all for my presentation.

119

And then it's common to ask,

120

Do you have any questions?

121

Yes, that's perfect.

122

So many useful phrases.

123

It's not about knowing every single word,

124

but knowing these common phrases helps a lot.

125

Yes, it's like having a little toolkit of words and phrases for business.

126

A linguistic toolkit.

127

I like that.

128

So we talked about emails, meetings, and presentations.

129

What else, Paul?

130

Well, what about phone calls?

131

Many people make phone calls for business.

132

Oh, yes, phone calls.

133

That can be a bit tricky because you can't see the other person's face.

134

That's true.

135

So clear speaking is very important.

136

What are some good ways to answer the phone in a business setting?

137

You can say, Hello, Emily speaking.

138

How may I help you?

139

Or simply, Good morning, company name, Emily speaking.

140

Ah, yes.

141

Adding the company name is good.

142

And if you want to ask, Who is calling?

143

You can say, May I ask who's calling, please?

144

Or Who am I speaking with?

145

These are polite ways to ask.

146

And what if the person you want to talk to is not there?

147

Then you can say, I'm sorry,

148

Mr. Smith is not available right now.

149

Or he's in a meeting.

150

And then you can ask,

151

can I take a message?

152

Yes, can I take a message is very useful.

153

Or would you like to leave a message?

154

Exactly.

155

And if you want to connect them to someone else,

156

you can say, please hold, I'll connect you.

157

Or one moment, please.

158

Wow, so many good phrases for phone calls.

159

It makes it much less scary.

160

Yes, practice makes it easier.

161

And remember, it's okay to speak slowly and clearly.

162

Don't rush.

163

That's a great tip, Emily.

164

Slow and clear.

165

Especially for business English, clarity is super important.

166

Yes.

167

Another important part of business English,

168

Paul, is talking about numbers,

169

like sales figures or budgets.

170

Oh, numbers, yes, like percentages.

171

For example, sales increased by 10%.

172

Yes, or, the budget for this project is $50,000 dollars.

173

Knowing how to say numbers clearly is very useful.

174

And dates too, right?

175

Like, the deadline is next Tuesday.

176

Absolutely.

177

Dates, times, and numbers are everywhere in business.

178

So practice saying them.

179

For example, the meeting is at 2.30pm on Friday.

180

Yes, good point.

181

And what about common office words like desk, computer, printer, keyboard, mouse?

182

Oh yes, daily office vocabulary.

183

Folder, document, report, spreadsheet.

184

These are words you will see every day in an office.

185

And colleague.

186

That's an important one.

187

It means a person you work with.

188

Yes, colleague.

189

Not friend, but a person you work with.

190

Very good, Paul.

191

And what about job titles, like manager, director, assistant?

192

Yes.

193

Knowing job titles is good.

194

CEO, HR manager, marketing specialist.

195

Yes, those are more specific.

196

But even just knowing manager or boss is a good start.

197

Absolutely.

198

Start simple, then add more.

199

That's our motto, right?

200

Yes, exactly.

201

Start simple, build confidence.

202

And don't be afraid to make mistakes.

203

are part of learning that's

204

so true Emily everyone makes mistakes even native speakers yes we do

205

and in business English politeness is very important we use words

206

like please thank you excuse me a lot yes politeness opens doors it It makes communication smoother.

207

Instead of, send me the report,

208

you say, could you please send me the report?

209

Yes, a big difference.

210

Or, I need this.

211

Versus, would it be possible to get this?

212

Oh yes, that sounds much better.

213

It's less direct and more polite.

214

Very good.

215

And another thing, Paul, is understanding different accents.

216

In business, you might talk to people from all over the world.

217

So practice listening to different English accents.

218

Oh, that's a very important point.

219

Sometimes an accent can make it a little harder to understand at first.

220

But with practice, it gets easier.

221

Yes, listening to podcasts like ours.

222

And watching English videos from different countries can help a lot.

223

Yes, good idea.

224

So, Emily, if someone is just starting with Business English,

225

what would be your top one or two tips?

226

My top tip would be start with what you use most often.

227

If you write many emails, focus on email phrases.

228

If you have many meetings, focus on meeting phrases.

229

That's very practical.

230

Focus on what you need right now.

231

Yes.

232

And my second tip is to learn common, polite phrases.

233

Could you please?

234

Would it be possible?

235

Thank you for your help?

236

These are always useful.

237

That's excellent advice, Emily.

238

And my tip would be, listen actively.

239

When you are in In a meeting or on a call,

240

really try to listen to the words people use.

241

Oh, that's a super important one, Paul.

242

Active listening.

243

You can learn so much just by listening carefully to others.

244

Yes.

245

You hear how they ask questions,

246

how they present ideas, how they close a conversation.

247

Absolutely.

248

And also, don't be afraid to prepare.

249

If you know you have a meeting,

250

think about what you want to say and how you will say it in English.

251

Yes, practice in your head,

252

or even say it out loud a few times.

253

That builds confidence.

254

Yes, exactly.

255

Confidence is key.

256

Even if your English is not perfect,

257

if you are confident and clear, people will understand you.

258

That's very true.

259

And people appreciate when you make an effort to communicate in English,

260

especially in a business setting.

261

Yes.

262

So business English might sound big,

263

but it's really about learning specific words and phrases that help you do your job effectively and politely.

264

And remember, it's a journey.

265

You learn little by little, step by step.

266

Yes.

267

One email at a time,

268

one meeting at a time.

269

That's right.

270

So, Emily, I think we gave our listeners a lot of great information today.

271

I think so too, Paul.

272

It was a very good discussion.

273

I hope it helps everyone who wants to start or improve their business English.

274

Me too.
