and phrases that you absolutely need to know

以及你絕對需要掌握的短語

if you're having online meetings in English so that you can participate like a pro.

Let's get straight into it.

Let's start with small talk.

I think we all know that feeling

when you sign into a meeting a couple minutes early and it's just you and one other person there.

It can be a little awkward.

So to break the ice and make some polite conversation, you can ask some good open-ended questions like, how's everything in New York?

What's keeping you busy these days?

Do you have any interesting projects on the horizon?

Have you been following the, and then name maybe a global event or something important going on in your industry, for example.

If you're the one leading the meeting, you need to say something to signal to the group that it's time to begin.

And we usually start this with words like, okay, all right, followed by things like, it looks like everybody's here, so let's kick off.

Shall we begin?

It's two o'clock, so let's get started.

Now, a frustrating part of online meetings is the tendency for people to talk over each other, even if they don't necessarily mean to interrupt.

So when that happens, you can say something like, my apologies for interrupting.

Go ahead, Teresa.

Now if you want to interrupt someone in face-to-face communication, you can do it more subtly with gestures or facial expressions,

but in an online setting you have to be a little more direct.

It's always best to use the person's first name to get their attention in a polite way.

For example, Martina, if I may, Kevin, can I jump in here for a second?

Sorry to interrupt, but now if someone interrupts you, you can say, just let me finish my point here.

I'm not quite finished.

Or you can allow them to interrupt you by saying, go ahead.

All right, now if you're leading a meeting or presenting during a meeting and you need to pause to do something, like to get a file or to share your screen,

communicate to the group what you're doing.

Don't just go silent.

For example, you can say things like, I'm gonna share my screen now.

Bear with me while I pull up the document.

Give me a second.

I'm going to check my Wi-Fi connection.

Now, what would an online meeting be without some technical issues?

If you run into a problem, you can say, apologies, I'm having some technical difficulties.

There seems to be a problem with the connection on my end.

When your video doesn't move due to a bad connection, we use the expression to be frozen.

So we say, for example, the screen is frozen or John, you're frozen.

Of course, during online meetings, we often have audio issues, which make it hard for people to hear each other or even understand what others are saying.

So when that happens

and you need to ask someone to repeat themselves you can say things like I didn't catch

that can you say

that again can you speak up a little we can't hear you can you come closer to the microphone

if there's a lot of noise where you are you can say excuse the background noise

if someone's microphone is off you can say you're on mute

or sorry I was on mute and when you can only hear parts of what someone is because the connection is interrupted,

we use the expression to break up.

So you could say to them, you're breaking up.

Now, if someone's unexpectedly disconnected from the meeting, we say that we've lost that person.

Did we lose Andrew?

You can also ask if the person is still there.

Are you there, Carla?

If everything's back to normal, then you can say, oh, Andrew's back.

Yes, we can hear you now.

If the meeting is taking longer than planned

and you need to leave before it's finished you can say

sorry i have a hard stop at two o'clock i need to go

or more informally you can say sorry guys i gotta jump

or i gotta drop now

when the meeting is ending before you sign off it's good business etiquette to thank everyone

and say goodbye don't just sign off without saying anything so you can say thank you everyone bye

have a nice weekend thanks all have a good one cheers

all right guys i hope you found this video helpful

and i hope that you put these words

and phrases into use in your very next online meeting

so these were all some of the right things to say

but what about some of the wrong things to say in

business english well check out this video right here for seven of the most common english mistakes

that i see in the workplace thanks so much for watching and i'll see you there next

FOR YOU

為什麼用這個影片練習口語？

線上會議是當今職場最常用的溝通場景之一，用好英語短語能讓你自信表達、避免尷尬，甚至提升職業形象。這個影片聚焦40個高頻表達，從破冰閒聊到應對技術問題，覆蓋會議全流程。通過英語影子跟讀模仿發音和語調，你能快速掌握地道用法，下次開會再也不會“卡殼”！

語境中的語法與表達

影片裡的短語實用又靈活，一起來拆解3個關鍵結構：

破冰小聊：用開放式問題打破沉默，如“最近紐約一切都好嗎？”“你手頭有什麼有趣的專案？”，比“你好嗎？”更自然。
禮貌打斷：線上會議無法用肢體語言，直接說“Martina，我可以插句話嗎？”既明確又禮貌，比生硬的“等一下”更得體。
技術問題表達：“螢幕卡了”用“the screen is frozen”，“我這邊網路有問題”說“there seems to be a problem with the connection on my end”，精準又專業。

發音陷阱與提升技巧

這些短語看似簡單，發音卻容易出錯：

frozen：注意“z”的濁子音，別發成“s”，否則聽起來像“frosen”。
mute：發音類似“謬特”，不是“木特”，輕讀尾音“t”。
interrupt：重音在第二個音節“ru”，別讀成“in-TER-rupt”。

建議用shadow speech法練習：播放影片，暫停後立即跟讀，模仿語氣和節奏。堅持一週，你會發現自己的口語更流暢、更像母語者。無論是雅思口語練習還是職場溝通，這種方法都能幫你快速提升。如果需要更多素材，不妨試試專門的shadowing site，每天10分鐘，進步看得見！

影片中的語法

說話人最常用的結構，並附上影片中的原話：

結構	影片中的用法
被動語態 be + 過去分詞 — 強調發生了什麼，而不是誰做的	be frozen · is frozen · is interrupted
現在進行時 am/is/are + -ing — 此刻或近期正在發生的事	you're having · you're finding · you're leading
義務：must / have to / need to 表示某事是必要的	need to know · need to say · have to be
“going to” 表將來 be going to + 動詞 — 計劃或明顯即將發生的事	we're going to look · gonna share · I'm going to check

什麼是跟讀法？

跟讀法 (Shadowing) 是一種有科學依據的語言學習技巧，最初開發用於專業口譯員的培訓，並由多語言者Alexander Arguelles博士普及。這個方法簡單而強大：您在聽英語母語原聲的同時立即大聲重複——就像是一個延遲1-2秒緊跟說話者的影子。與被動聽力或語法練習不同，跟讀法強迫您的大腦和口腔肌肉同時處理並模模擬實的講話模式。研究表明它能顯著提高發音準確性，語調，節奏，連讀，聽力理解和口語流利度——使其成為雅思口語備考和真實英語交流最有效的方法之一。
