22

37
Let's learn English together.
38
Perfect.
39
So, business English.
40
Paul, what do you think is the first thing people think about when they hear business English?
41
Hmm, that's a good question.
42
Maybe meetings?
43
Or emails?
44
Yes, I think emails are very common in business.
45
Yes, good point.
46
Emails are super important.
47
When you work, you send many emails every day, right?
48
So knowing how to write a good email in English is a big part of business English.
49
Exactly.
50
And it's different from sending an email to a friend.
51
You need to be more… formal?
52
Yes, more formal.
53
We use different words.
54
For example, instead of hi,
55
you can say, dear Mr. Smith or dear Miss Smith.
56
Oh, yes, that's right.
57
And at the end, instead of see ya or bye-bye,
58
you say sincerely or best regards.
59
Yes, exactly.
60
These little changes make a big difference.
61
It shows respect and professionalism.
62
Ah, professionalism.
63
That's a key word in business English.
64
It means you are serious about your work.
65
Yes, and it's not just about words.
66
It's also about tone.
67
In business emails, you usually want to be clear and direct.
68
Yes, clear and direct.
69
No long, complicated sentences.
70
Just get to the point.
71
What do you want to say?
72
Say it simply.
73
That's a great tip, Paul.
74
Simple is often better, especially when you are learning.
75
Don't try to use very big,
76
fancy words if you are not sure.
77
Simple words are good.
78
Yes, exactly.
79
And what about meetings, Emily?
80
You said meetings are a big part of business English, too.
81
Oh, yes.
82
Meetings.
83
Many businesses have meetings.
84
And in global companies, these meetings are often in English.
85
Wow, that can be a bit scary, right?
86
To speak in a meeting in English?
87
It can be.
88
But we can learn some useful phrases.
89
For example, to start a meeting,
90
you can say, Good morning, everyone.
91
Or, Let's start the meeting.
92
Yes, that's simple.
93
And if you want to say something,
94
like, You have an idea.
95
Good question.
96
You can say, I have a point to make.
97
Or, I'd like to add something.
98
Or simply, Excuse me, I have an idea.
99
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.

이 비디오로 말하기 연습을 해야 하는 이유
이 비디오는 비즈니스 영어를 배우는 데 정말 유용합니다. 영어를 실생활에서 활용할 수 있도록 도와주며, 'shadow speak' 기법을 통해 반복적으로 연습함으로써 자연스럽게 영어 말하기 능력을 향상시킬 수 있습니다. 유튜브 영어 공부를 통해 귀에 익숙해진 내용은 실제 상황에서도 자신감을 가지고 사용할 수 있게 해줍니다. 또한, 비즈니스 환경에서 필요한 영어 표현을 쉽게 배울 수 있어 직장에서도 유용하게 활용할 수 있습니다.
문맥 속의 문법과 표현
비디오에서 사용하는 몇 가지 핵심 문법 구조와 표현을 분석해 보겠습니다:
- 감사 표현: "Thank you for asking." - 누군가의 질문에 대한 감사의 표현은 비즈니스 환경에서도 매우 중요합니다.
- 상태 질문: "How are you feeling today?" - 상대방의 상태를 묻는 질문은 대화의 흐름을 자연스럽게 이어갈 수 있게 해줍니다.
- 계획 공유: "I’m ready for another fun episode." - 계획이나 의도를 명확하게 전달하는 것은 팀워크를 강화하는 데 큰 도움이 됩니다.
- 제안 및 참여 촉구: "Please click the like button." - 청중에게 행동을 유도하는 표현은 커뮤니케이션의 핵심입니다.
이와 같은 표현을 'shadow speech' 연습으로 익히면, 실생활에서도 자연스럽게 사용할 수 있습니다.
일반적인 발음 함정
비디오에는 몇 가지 발음 또는 억양에서 주의해야 할 부분이 있습니다:
- important - 'im-POR-tant'로 발음해야 하며, 'im-POR-tnat'로 잘못 발음하는 경우가 많습니다.
- business - 'BIZ-ness'라고 발음하여야 하며, 'bussiness'라고 혼동하는 경우가 있습니다.
- subscribe - 'sub-SCRIBE'로 pronouncing flatly는 피해야 합니다. 강조해서 발음하는 연습이 필요합니다.
이러한 발음을 연습하면 영어 발음 교정에 많은 도움이 됩니다. 지속적으로 반복하여 연습함으로써 자연스러운 발음으로 개선할 수 있습니다.
쉐도잉이란? 영어 실력을 빠르게 키우는 과학적 방법
쉐도잉(Shadowing)은 원래 전문 통역사 훈련을 위해 개발된 언어 학습 기법으로, 다언어 학자인 Dr. Alexander Arguelles에 의해 대중화된 방법입니다. 핵심 원리는 간단하지만 매우 강력합니다: 원어민의 영어를 들으면서 1~2초의 짧은 지연으로 즉시 소리 내어 따라 말하는 것——마치 '그림자(shadow)'처럼 화자를 따라가는 것입니다. 문법 공부나 수동적인 청취와 달리, 쉐도잉은 뇌와 입 근육이 동시에 실시간으로 영어를 처리하고 재현하도록 훈련합니다. 연구에 따르면 이 방법은 발음 정확도, 억양, 리듬, 연음, 청취력, 말하기 유창성을 크게 향상시킵니다. IELTS 스피킹 준비와 자연스러운 영어 소통을 원하는 분들에게 특히 효과적입니다.
