BEC: Speaking Phrases

Business English

Business English


D. K.
Diese Vokabelkartei mit 12 Karteikarten hilft beim Erlernen von Englisch auf einem anderen Niveau. Sie konzentriert sich auf nützliche Sprachausdrücke für Gespräche, wie das Äußern von Meinungen, das Höfliche Ablehnen, das Vorschlagen von Ideen und das Finden von Alternativen, wenn man etwas nicht versteht. Beispiele sind "In my point of view", "I’m sorry I don’t understand what you mean, could you rephrase that please?" und "Well, I see your point, however". Die Plattform ermöglicht auch das Rückwärtslernen, indem sie die Lernrichtung umkehrt – von der Zielsprache zur Ausgangssprache. Diese Karteikarten sind besonders nützlich für Fortgeschrittene, die ihre Kommunikationsfähigkeiten verbessern möchten, wie z.B. Geschäftsleute oder Studenten, die sich auf Prüfungen vorbereiten.
