你的英文電子郵件都怎麼作結？

Best regards（致以最誠摯的問候）？

Sure, those are okay, but what if you want to add a little flare to your emails and still be professional?

當然，這些都沒問題，但如果你想為替電子郵件增添亮點，同時又不失專業性，該怎麼辦呢？

Hi, I'm your English coach, Christina, and welcome to Speak English with Christina, where we eliminate what's blocking you and increase your confidence in business English step by step.

嗨，我是各位的英語教練 Christina，歡迎來到 Speak English with Christina，我們將在這裡消除你的障礙，逐步增強你對商務英語的信心。

Now, in this episode, we're not going to debate the nuances between "kind regards" and "best regards".

在這一集裡，我們不會討論 kind regards 和 best regards 之間的細微差別。

- "Kind regards" is just friendlier.  - "Best regards" is just fine.

- Kind regards 就是比較友善。  - Best regards 完全沒問題。

- But I... I think "kind regards" is better.  - "Best regards" is like the professional standard.

- 但我⋯⋯我覺得 kind regards 更好。  - Best regards 根本是專業標準。

But, yeah, you want something, you know, kind of human, too.

是沒錯，但你也需要一些更人性化的問候。

Honestly, both are fine, both are pretty neutral.

老實說，兩者都不錯，都頗為中性。

And, instead, I want to share with you three fun but professional ways to leave a memorable, positive impression with your emails in English.

我反而想跟各位分享三種有趣而專業的結語，讓你的英文電子郵件給人留下難忘且正面的印象。

Now, first step, why bother to use something different than the standard "best regards"?

第一步，為什麼要使用與標準 best regards 不同的詞語？

First, you're more memorable because you did something different.

首先，你更令人難忘，因為你做了與眾不同的事。

Two, you're also more memorable because you created a positive emotion for your reader.

其二，你也更容易讓人記住，因為你為讀者創造了一種積極的情感。

And all of that means that you're more likely to get a response and maybe get some more business.

而那一切都意味著你更有可能得到回覆，或許還能獲得更多生意。

So, to stop being boring with your email sign-off and to spread some positivity, here's our next step⏤

所以說，為了讓你電子郵件結語不再枯燥乏味，並傳播一些正能量，這是下一步：

exactly what you can say, or write, rather.

你可以這樣說，更準確地說，可以這樣寫。

To compliment someone on their work or their contribution to a project, "Keep up the good work".

要讚美某人的工作或他們對項目的貢獻：Keep up the good work（繼續努力）。

If someone is doing work for you and you're very satisfied, let them know.

如果有人為你工作，而你又非常滿意，那就讓他們知道。

It'll encourage them to continue doing great work, and everybody loves a little pat on the back.

這會鼓勵他們繼續出色地工作，而且每個人都喜歡別人讚揚自己。（譯註：a pat on the back 直譯為「拍一下背」，引申為「讚揚，稱讚」的意思。）

To express gratitude in a meaningful way, "Thank you for...," and then something specific that they did.

以一種有意義的方式表達感激之情：先寫 Thank you（謝謝你），然後說明他們所做的具體事項。

For example, "Thank you for taking the time to clarify those details."

例如：Thank you for taking the time to clarify those details.（謝謝你花時間澄清這些細節）。

This is much more powerful than the generic "Thanks for your help," and it creates this nice feeling of "aw...".

這比一般的 thanks for your help（謝謝你的幫忙）要有力得多，而且會讓人產生窩心感，（譯註：aw... 為狀聲詞，通常是表示喜愛的感嘆詞）

and that makes the reader like you a little better.

To get some positive energy before an event, "I can't wait to...," and then something specific that's coming soon, "...with you".

為了在活動前獲得一些正能量：I can't wait to（我已經迫不及待⋯⋯），然後是一些即將發生的具體事情，with you（和你一起）。

I can't wait to start the project with you.

我迫不及待想要和你一起開始這個項目。

我迫不及待地想和你一起開始這個項目。

When the other person sees that you're excited about the event, they become excited about the event, too.

當對方看到你對活動感到興奮時，他們也會對活動感到興奮。

And that, again, just creates that nice, positive energy.

這同樣會創造出美好的正能量。
