如何用 英語 來和別人通話呢?下面這篇文章詳細(xì)概括了打電話時可能會用到的多種表達方式,一起來學(xué)習(xí)吧。
一、要找的人不在
A: Hello, this is carol. may i speak to miss chen?
B: Yes, one moment please. i’ll get her for you.
A: Thank you.
B:I’m sorry, she’s not at her room right now.
A: Oh, i’ll call her again.
A: 喂,我是卡羅,可以請陳小姐聽電話嗎?
B: 好,請等一下,我為你轉(zhuǎn)接。
A: 謝謝。
B: 對不起,她現(xiàn)在不在。
A: 那我等下再打給她。
二、自我介紹時,請注意:
1. “hello”等于是中文的 “喂”,隨時隨地可用。
2. 打電話先行自我介紹是一種禮貌。電話中最常用“this is”的形態(tài)而不是“here is”或“i am”,這是打電話需要注意的。
3. “may i speak to” 也可以換成是 “can i speak to” 請 聽電話。
三、抱歉這么晚打來的說法:
1. I’m sorry to call you so late. 對不起這么晚打電話來。
2. I hope I didn’t catch you at a bad time. 抱歉這種時候找你。(含有希望沒有打擾到你的意思)
3. I hope I didn’t wake you up so early. 我希望這么早沒有吵到你。
4. I’m sorry to call you so early. 對不起這么早打電話來。
5. I’m sorry to bother you at this hour. 很抱歉在這時打擾你。

七、打公用電話:
