外企常用英語對話十句Inthemiddleofsomething?正在忙嗎？這句話,其實(shí)老美也很常用"Inthemiddleofsomething?",(但這句話比較接近于"Areyoubusyrightnow?"是問人家‘現(xiàn)在’是不是正在忙?"Areyoubusy?"的含意比較廣,也可指‘最近’忙不忙?)大家不要小看這么小小的變化,如果你除了"Areyoubusy?"之外,有時(shí)還懂得刻意去用"Inthemiddleofsomething?"我相信你的英文說出來就會跟別人不一樣.Whatareyouupto?你正在作什么?跟上面的例子一樣,你正在作什么啊?例如:"Whatareyouupto?"同樣也是問人家你正在作什么.承上例,假設(shè)你在辦公室里,你想找人八卦,所以問同事,"Inthemiddleofsomething?"他回答,"Kindof."(算是吧.)這時(shí)你就可以打破砂鍋問到底,"Whatareyouupto?"(那你最近在忙什么啊?)另外有時(shí)候老美見面時(shí)也會問"Whatareyouupto?"意思就是問你最近在作什么啊?跟另一句問候語"What'sup?"意思上很接近.但是你要聽對方的語氣喔!有時(shí)候"Whatareyouupto?"指的雖然還是"Whatareyoudoing?"但它卻是‘你在搞什么鬼啊?’的意思喔!例如當(dāng)你看到別人在亂翻你的東西,你就可以責(zé)問他,"Hey,whatareyouupto?"也就是罵他‘你在搞什么鬼啊?’.或是像電影Blow里毒販的老爸罵他的兒子,"Iknowwhatyouareupto."(我知道你在干些什么勾當(dāng).)以上這些例子里,"Whatareyouupto?"完全可以用"Whatareyoudoing?"來取代,只不過因?yàn)槲覀冊谡f話時(shí)要力求變化,所以要多學(xué)幾種不同的講法.其實(shí)"Whatareyouupto?"還有許多其它的意思,在此不一一列舉,不過還有一個(gè)比較常用的解釋是,‘進(jìn)展的如何了?’例如朋友告訴你他正在寫一部武俠小說,(就像我的labmate一樣),你就可以問他,"Whatareyouupto?"(進(jìn)展的如何了),而他的回答可能是,"IamwritingChapter3now."我現(xiàn)在正在寫第三章呢.3.Canyoujustgivemeaballparkfigure?能不能給我一個(gè)大概的數(shù)字.那什么是ballparkfigure呢?通常在棒球比賽時(shí)不是都會報(bào)今天的觀眾人數(shù),例如是49,132人嗎?這個(gè)數(shù)字49,132就是ballparkfigure,但這只是一個(gè)大約的估計(jì)數(shù)字而已,所以ballparkfigure的意思就是指大約的估計(jì)數(shù)字.所以在公司里如果老板問會計(jì),上個(gè)月水電費(fèi)總共多少錢?之后再加上一句,"Justgivemeaballparkfigure."意思就是我只要一個(gè)大略的數(shù)字就行了.甚至有些老美懶到就只說ballpark,所以老板也有可能會說,"I'llneedaballparkoftherevenuelastyear."(我需要去年的營收的大約數(shù)字.)你就要自己知道這個(gè)ballpark是ballparkfigure的意思.其實(shí)很多像ballpark這種有點(diǎn)俚語的講法,你去問美國人,我保證他們百分之九十九點(diǎn)九都知道ballpark的意思4.Bottomline:Wehavetoturnintoprofitby2002.最重要的是:我們必須在2002年前轉(zhuǎn)虧為盈.大家看過財(cái)務(wù)報(bào)表沒?上面是一大堆密密麻麻的數(shù)字,告訴你公司的資產(chǎn)有多少,折舊多少,應(yīng)收賬款多少.但是這些都不是最重要的,最重要的在最最下面那一行(bottomline),叫凈賺(Netearnings)告訴你這家公司總共加起來到底是賺錢還是賠錢,(這其實(shí)才是最重要的,不是嗎?)所以bottomline這個(gè)字后來就變成了有‘最重要的是...’的意思.例如商場上有句名言,"Inbusiness,Ifyoudon'ttakecareofyourcustomers,somebodyelsewill.Andthatisthebottomline."(如果你不關(guān)心你的顧客的話,其它的人會,這是最重要的原則.)另外bottomline也有‘最后的底限’,‘不能再退讓的原則’的意思.例如老板可以告誡員工,"Bottomline:WehavetoshipthisorderbyFriday."(我最后的底限是,我們必須在星期五前運(yùn)交這批貨.)5.ThenewCFOwassenttobringthecompanyoutofthered.這位新的財(cái)務(wù)長被派來把公司從赤字中拯救出來.中國人喜歡紅色,所以股市大漲時(shí)盤面上都是紅通通的一片.不過歐美國家對紅色的認(rèn)知?jiǎng)t大不相同,紅色就表示虧損,赤字.像之前提到的bottomline如果是用紅筆寫的,那就是表示公司整體上來說是賠錢的.相反的如果是用黑筆寫的,則表示是賺錢的.所以我們常可以聽到inthered或是intheblack這樣的講法,其實(shí)就是指公司賺不賺錢.當(dāng)然啦,我們也可以用最簡單的講法,losemoney和makemoney或是形容詞unprofitable和profitable來表示賠錢或賺錢.例如這家公司是賺錢的,你可以說,"Thiscompanyisintheblack.","Thecompanyismakingmoney."或是"Thecompanyisprofitable."都可以.講到這個(gè)profitable讓我不得不提醒大家non-profit這個(gè)字,因?yàn)槌３Ｓ腥藭沐e(cuò).Non-profit這個(gè)字指的并不是說不賺錢的,而是說‘非營利性質(zhì)的’,例如像消費(fèi)者文教基金會我們就可以說他是一個(gè)non-profitorganization,非營利機(jī)構(gòu),這種組織就不是以賺錢為目的.但nonprofitable的話則是指不賺錢的就等于unprofitable或是non-profit-making.6.Shellyjustcalledinsick.Shelly剛打電話來請病假.Callinsick是一個(gè)在辦公室內(nèi)常會用到的片語,指的是有人打電話來說他生病了不能來上班.有興趣聽老美講這句話的人不妨去看"WhatWomenWant?"(男人百分百)這部電影,我記得他們就有用"callinsick"這個(gè)片語.當(dāng)然啦,這種事想也知道一定有相當(dāng)?shù)谋壤峭祽卸幌雭砩习喽?不然就是員工找借口集體罷工,例如"Someworkerscalledinsicktohaveastrike."(有些工人藉由集體打電話請病假來罷工.)那如果是正常的請病假(sickleave/medicalleave)要怎么講?你可以說,"Ineedasickleavefortwodays."(我需要請兩天病假.)或是如果是因?yàn)槔掀乓置淞?想要請事假(personalleave),你可以說,"I'maskingforathree-daypaid/unpaidpersonalleaveformywife'slabor."(因?yàn)槲依掀乓?我想要請三天假.)至于這個(gè)假是扣不扣錢?(paid/unpaid)就看公司的政策而定了.7.Ijustheardthatsevenpeoplearegoingbelaidoffnextmonth.我剛聽到公司下個(gè)月要裁七位員工.最近失業(yè)率不斷上升,我也就順便來談?wù)劜脝T的話題.公司要裁員的講法有許多種,其中最常見的不外是layoff這個(gè)字(如果分開來寫:layoff是動詞,但合起來寫layoff則是名詞).例如,"Ciscoissuesaprofitwarning,planslayoffs."(思科發(fā)布盈余警訊,計(jì)劃裁員.)當(dāng)然還可以用比較口語的講法說,cutjobs或是slashjobs,例如上一句我們也可以說,"Ciscoplanstocut/slashjobs."(思科計(jì)劃裁員.)據(jù)路邊馬路消息說,由于layoff最近在英語中的出現(xiàn)頻率排名大幅成長,layoff這個(gè)字將會被收錄在最新的英文常用3000字匯當(dāng)中.要是真的不幸在美國被裁員了怎么辦?先記住兩句話再說,第一句是,"Whosedecisionwasthis?"(這是誰的決定.)俗語說冤有頭債有主,先問清楚了是誰動你的,將來要把汽車輪胎放氣才知道要放哪一臺.另一句話就是,"Iambetweenjobs."這句話在找新工作時(shí)很好用.人家問你現(xiàn)在在作什么,你不要呆呆地說,"Ijustgotlaidoff."多難聽啊!你應(yīng)該說,"Iambetweenjobs."我正好在兩個(gè)工作間的空檔.聽起來比較委婉這可是之前剛被裁了員的好友Joseph教我的,他就因?yàn)楹軙v這句"Iambetweenjobs."目前已經(jīng)在德州休士頓找到新工作了.8.Hesuggestedweshouldgotoeataftermygraveyardshift.他建議說我們可以在我的大夜班之后一起去吃東西.輪班這個(gè)字在英文里叫shift,例如三班制就叫threeshifts.例如,"Wehavetoworkinthreeshiftstokeepthecompanyrunning."(我們必須輪三班制來保持工廠的運(yùn)轉(zhuǎn).)我想大家都知道三班制就是日夜,小夜班和大夜班.在英文里日班就是dayshift或是regularshift,小夜班是nightshift.那大夜班呢?有一個(gè)很有趣的講法,叫g(shù)raveyardshift.所以如果你要說明自己上的是大夜班,就可以這樣說,"Iworkonthegraveyardshift."至于為什么叫g(shù)raveyardshift呢?其中有一個(gè)廣為流傳的故事是這么說的,在十九世紀(jì)時(shí),人們有時(shí)候會不小心把還活著的人當(dāng)成死人埋掉.為了避免這種悲劇發(fā)生,所以他們在每個(gè)棺材里都裝上電鈴,以便讓這些意外醒來的‘尸體’能夠按鈴求救.也因此必須另外安排一位仁兄晚上時(shí)在墓地(graveyard)里巡查,以便有人按鈴時(shí)能即時(shí)通知家屬.所以大夜班后來就以此得名,成為了graveyardshift.9.Iamonlyaregular9-to-5er.我只是一個(gè)平凡的朝九晚五上班族.我相信中文的‘朝九晚五’這個(gè)字應(yīng)該就是從英文9-to-5這個(gè)字直接翻過來的吧?由于上班族的工作時(shí)間多半都是很固定從早上九點(diǎn)到晚上五點(diǎn),所以才有9-to-5這個(gè)用法,指的就是很一般上下班的工作.記得有一次跟一個(gè)在社會上己經(jīng)工作多年又回來念研究所的老美聊到他回學(xué)校念書的動機(jī),他就告訴我,"Idon'twanttowork9to5fortherestofmylife."(我不想一輩子都作朝九晚五的工作.)另外像這種上班族也可以自稱是一個(gè)9-to-5er,也就是指作這種朝九晚五工作的上班族.我就該自稱是10-to-3er了.(我當(dāng)然沒那么認(rèn)真凌晨三點(diǎn)回家,而是下午三點(diǎn)就回家睡午覺了!)10.Irefusetoworkovertimeduringtheweekend.我拒絕在周末時(shí)加班.英文里加班叫workovertime.例如別人喊你今晚出去吃飯,你說,"Sorry,Ihavetoworkovertime."就是告訴他,很抱歉,我今晚要加班.不過有趣的是,除了‘加班’可以叫overtime,加班費(fèi)也可以叫overtime.例如你可以大聲地告訴老板,"Youhavetopaymeovertime!"(你必須要付我加班費(fèi).)不過現(xiàn)在時(shí)機(jī)歹歹,我看還是小聲講就好了.除了這個(gè)payovertime之外,老美也常用到另外兩個(gè)字,一個(gè)叫doubletime,另一個(gè)叫timeandone-half.Doubletime指的是雙倍的工資,而timeandone-half或是timeandahalf則是指一倍半的工資.例如老板叫你作一些額外的工作,你可以說,"Ifyoupaymedoubletime,I'lldoit."(如果你付我雙倍的工資,我就去做.)再造一句,"IliketoworkonholidaysbecauseIamontimeandahalf."(我喜歡在假日時(shí)工作,因?yàn)檫@時(shí)的工資算一倍半.)Whatareyoutryingtosay?（你到底想說什么？）Don'tbesilly.（別胡鬧了。）Howstrongareyourglasses?（你近視多少度？）Justbecause.（沒有別的原因。）Itisn'tthewayIhopeditwouldbe.（這不是我所盼望的。）Youwillneverguess.（你永遠(yuǎn)猜不到。）Noonecoulddoanythingaboutit.（眾人對此束手無措。）Isawsomethingdeeplydisturbing.（深感事情不妙。）Moneyisagoodservantbutabadmaster.（要做金錢的主人，莫做金錢的奴隸。）Iamnotavailable.（我正忙著）Wisdominthemindisbetterthanmoneyinthehand.(腦中的知識比手中的金錢更重要）Neversaydie.it'sapieceofcake.別泄氣，那只是小菜一碟。Don'tworry.you'llgetusetoitsoon.別擔(dān)心，很快你就會習(xí)慣的。Ikonwhowyoufeel.我明白你的感受。Youwinsome.youlosesome.勝敗乃兵家常事。Don'tburyyourheadinthesand.不要逃避現(xiàn)實(shí)。Ididn'texpectyoutosuchagoodjob.我沒想到你干得這么好。Youarecomingalonewell.你做得挺順利。Sheiswell-build.她的身材真棒。Youlookneatandfresh.你看起來很清純。Youhaveabeautifulpersonality.你的氣質(zhì)很好。Youflattermeimmensely.你過獎(jiǎng)啦。Youshouldbeslowtojudgeothers.你不應(yīng)該隨意評論別人。Ihopeyouwillexcusemeifimakeanymistake.如有任何錯(cuò)誤，請你原諒Itwasmostcarelessofme.我太粗心了。Itwasquitebyaccident.真是始料不及。Iwishihadallthetimei'deverwasted,soicouldwasteitalloveragain.我希望所有被我浪費(fèi)的時(shí)間重新回來，讓我再浪費(fèi)一遍。Ilikeyouthewayyouwere.我喜歡你以前的樣子。Youtwogoaheadtothemoviewithoutme,idon'twanttobeathirdwheel.你們兩個(gè)自己去看電影吧，我不想當(dāng)電燈泡。Doyouhaveanyoneinmind?你有心上人嗎？Howlonghaveyouknownher？你認(rèn)識她多久了？Itwasloveatfristsight.一見鐘情I'dbettlehitthebooks.我要復(fù)習(xí)功課啦。apieceofone'smind.直言不諱Hegavemeapieceofmind,"Don'tshiftresponsibilityontoothers."他責(zé)備道：“不要把責(zé)任推卸到別人身上。”acatanddoglife水火不容的生活Thehusbandandhiswifearealwaysquarrelling,andtheyareleadingacatanddoglife.這對夫婦老是吵架，相互之間水火不容。adog'slife潦倒的生活Themanlivedadog'slife.這個(gè)人生活潦倒。AtoZ從頭至尾IknowthatfromAtoZ.我很了解這件事。abovesomebody深?yuàn)WWell,thissortoftalkisaboveme.我不懂你們在講什么。allears全神貫注地傾聽著WhenyoutellMarysomegossip,sheisallears.跟Mary講一些小道消息，她會聽地仔仔細(xì)細(xì)。allthemore更加，益發(fā)You'llbeallthebetterforaholiday.度一次假，對你會更有好處。alldressedup打扮得整整齊齊Sheisalldressedupandnowheretogo.她打扮得整整齊卻無處炫耀。allinall總的說來；最心愛的東西Thedaughterisallinalltohim.女兒是他的無價(jià)寶。allout竭盡全力Theywentallout.他們鼓足了干勁。allover全部結(jié)束；渾身，到處Glad,itisallover.這事全部結(jié)束了，好得很。I'mwetallover.我渾身都濕了。allset準(zhǔn)備就緒Heisallsetforanearlymorningstart.他已做好清晨出發(fā)的一切準(zhǔn)備。allyouhavetodo需要做得是Allyouhavetodoistocalmyourselfdownandwaitforthegoodnews.你需要做得是靜下心來等好消息。aseasyasfallingofalog/aseasyassnappingyourfingers/aseasyasABC容易得很Tome,agoodstoryteller,itwouldbeaseasyasfallingofalog.對我來說，講個(gè)故事還不是隨手拈來。asbusyasabee非常忙Mumisalwaysasbusyasabeeinthemoring.媽媽每天早上都忙得不可開交。atone'sfingertips了如指掌Howtogetatthatlittleislandisathisfingertips.他知道怎么去那個(gè)小島。atone'swit'send智窮Don'taskhim.Itisalsoathiswit'send.不要問他了，他也不知道。bigshot大人物，大亨Heisabigshotinourlittletown.blacksheep敗家子，害群之馬Everyfamilyhasablacksheep.家家有本難念的經(jīng)。blackandblue遍體鱗傷Thethiefwascaughtofred-handedandbeatenblackandblue.那個(gè)小偷當(dāng)場被抓住并被打得青一塊紫一塊的。blackandwhite白紙黑字Theproofisinblackandwhiteandthemurdererhasnoanyexcuses.證據(jù)確鑿，兇手再也無話可說。blindalley死胡同Youareheadingintoablindalley.你正在鉆牛角尖。blowhotandcold搖擺不定Thisguyseemedtohavenoownidea.Healwaysblewhotandcold.這家伙好象沒什么主張，總是搖擺不定。blowone'sowntrumpet自吹自擂D(zhuǎn)on'tblowyourowntumpet.Letusseewhatonearthyoucando.不要自吹自擂了，讓我們看看你到底能做什么。bornwithasilverinone'smouth出生在富貴人家Heisbornwithasilverinone'smouth.他是含著金鑰匙出生的。blandnew嶄新的ablandnewcoat新衣服breaktheice打破沉默Thecouplehadn'tspokentoeachotherforaweek.Theywerebothwaitingfortheotheronetobreaktheice.這對夫婦已經(jīng)一個(gè)星期沒說過話了。兩人都在等另一方先開口。byablow無意中的一擊Heisbeatentothegroundbyablow.他被擊到在地。can'tstanditanylonger不能再忍受了Ican'tstanditanylonger,Iquit.我再也忍受不了了，我走。carrysomethingtoofar過火了Youarecarryingyourjoketoofar.你玩笑開得太過分了。castleinthesky海市蜃樓Youplanisnearlyacastleinthesky.你的計(jì)劃簡直就是空想。catsgotone'stongue啞口無言chainsmoker老煙槍comeupwith產(chǎn)生，想出Letmecomeupwithsomeideas.讓我想一想。comeeasily容易Languagescomeeasilytosomepeople.有些人能夠很容易地掌握語言。cupoftea喜歡Moviesarenotmycupoftea.我不喜歡看電影。cutitout停止，住嘴Cutitout!Ican'tstandyouanylonger.callitaday不再做下去，停止（某種活動）Letuscallitaday,stop.這一天工作夠了，停工吧！darkhorse黑馬NobodyconsideredthatJohnwouldwinthegame.Hewasadarkhorseinthefinal.dearJohnletter絕交信JackreceivedadearJohnletterfromhisgirlfriendbecausehehadbrokenherheart.dosomonegood對某人有好處Havingsomemoringexercisesdoesyougood.Doyougetme?你明白我的意思嗎？doesn'tcount這次不算doesn'tmakesense不懂；沒有任何意義Thesentenceyoumadedoesn'tmakeanysensetome.downandout窮困潦倒Beingdownandout,hecouldn'tsupporthisfamily.driveat用意，意欲What'shedrivingat?他用意何在？dropin偶然拜訪Idroppedhiminonmywaytothehospi
