You want to sound smart and professional.

過去簡單式

是以，今天我為您準備了 10 個聰明的詞語，您一定要使用這些詞語，讓自己在工作中顯得專業、睿智和積極。

And the best part about today's lesson is these are small changes that you can make.

今天這堂課的最大亮點在於，這些都是你可以做出的微小改變。

Sometimes a very small change can have big results, and that's what we're focused on today.

有時，一個很小的改變就能產生很大的效果，這就是我們今天關注的重點。

So be sure to stick with me to learn these 10 smart words and find out exactly how you can use them with example sentences.

是以，請務必跟我一起學習這 10 個聰明的單詞，並通過例句瞭解如何準確地使用它們。

And be sure to watch to the end because word number 10 is maybe the most important one that you need to know on this list.

請務必看完，因為第 10 個單詞可能是這份清單中你需要知道的最重要的單詞。

Let's get started right away with number one, certainly.

當然，讓我們馬上從第一項開始。

What are some of the most common words that you hear when someone wants to agree with you or agree to a request?

當有人想同意你的觀點或答應你的請求時，你最常聽到的詞是什麼？

We often say words like okay or no problem.

我們常說沒關係或沒問題之類的話。

But we use them too much and they're pretty casual.

但我們用得太多了，而且很隨意。

So if we want to sound a little bit more professional and positive, certainly is a great option.

是以，如果我們想讓自己聽起來更專業、更積極一些，這當然是一個不錯的選擇。

For example, if your boss asks for a document by the end of the day, you could say okay or certainly.

例如，如果你的老闆要求在下班前提供一份文件，你可以說 "好的 "或 "當然"。

Or a colleague asks you to help with a project, certainly.

或者同事請你幫忙做一個項目，當然可以。

Let's say that you have a project at work and just before the deadline you get an email that says there's some changes in the requirements.

比方說，你有一個工作項目，就在截止日期前，你收到一封電子郵件，說需求有了一些變化。

收到這封郵件時，你有什麼感覺？

大多數人都不喜歡 "改變 "這個詞。

A better, smarter word that you could use is modify.

你可以用一個更好、更聰明的詞來形容，那就是 "修改"。

It doesn't have the same feeling that the word change can have.

它沒有 "變化 "一詞給人的那種感覺。

For example, at a meeting a colleague might say that we need to change the way that we're dealing with our customers.

例如，在一次會議上，一位同事可能會說，我們需要改變與客戶打交道的方式。

That sounds like you have to change everything and nobody really wants to do that.

這聽起來像是你必須改變一切，但沒人真的願意這麼做。

Instead, it's better to say something like we should modify the way we deal with customers at work.

倒不如說，我們應該改變工作中與客戶打交道的方式。

Modify doesn't sound so scary or overwhelming.

修改聽起來並不那麼可怕，也不那麼難以承受。

It's a fantastic word to use in place of the word change.

用這個詞來代替 "改變"，真是妙不可言。

Similar to the word change, there's another word that no one likes to hear at work and that is the word problem.

與 "改變 "一詞類似，還有一個在工作中大家都不喜歡聽到的詞，那就是 "問題"。

The boss has a problem she wants you to solve.

None of us like hearing those statements.

The word complication is a great alternative and it doesn't sound as bad or scary.

併發症一詞是一個很好的替代詞，聽起來也不那麼糟糕或可怕。

For example, instead of saying there's a problem with your order, you could say there's a complication with your order, but we're working on it.

例如，與其說您的訂單有問題，不如說您的訂單有一個複雜的問題，但我們正在解決。

I'm curious, when you think of a word that native speakers use to be positive and show that something is great, what word do you think of?

我很好奇，當你想到母語使用者用來表示積極、表示某件事很棒的詞時，你會想到什麼詞？

Native speakers love the word awesome and it's a fantastic word.

以英語為母語的人都喜歡 awesome 這個詞，它是一個非常棒的詞。

I love it, but I want you to have the ability to be flexible in English.

我喜歡它，但我希望你們有靈活運用英語的能力。

I want you to have vocabulary that you can adapt and use in different situations and the word sensational is a fantastic positive word that you can use in place of the word awesome.

我希望你們掌握的詞彙能夠適應並用於不同的場合，"轟動"（sensational）這個詞就是一個非常好的正面詞彙，你們可以用它來代替 "真棒"（awesome）這個詞。

For example, if I didn't sleep very much last night and I'm feeling super tired at work and a colleague says, hey, Anne-Marie, I'm going to go to the coffee shop.

舉個例子，如果我昨晚沒睡好，上班時感覺超累，同事說，嘿，安妮-瑪麗，我要去咖啡店了。

I could say, oh, that would be awesome or that would be sensational.

我可以說，哦，那會很棒，或者那會很轟動。

To elaborate simply means to give more details and there are many times at work when we need someone to clarify something or give us some extra details.

詳細說明的意思就是提供更多細節，而在工作中，我們有很多時候需要別人澄清一些事情或提供一些額外的細節。

So if you're in a meeting and a coworker says something that isn't really clear, you're not exactly sure what she means, instead of saying, what do you mean?

所以，如果你在開會時，同事說了一些不太清楚的話，你不太確定她是什麼意思，與其說 "你是什麼意思？

If you use the word leverage at work, you'll definitely impress some other people.

如果你在工作中使用 "槓桿 "一詞，一定會給其他人留下深刻印象。

是以，我們有一個很好的辦法。

If we modify our marketing approach, we can get some real leverage over our competitors.

如果我們能改變營銷方法，就能真正戰勝競爭對手。

We've used two words from our list there.

I could say, if we change our marketing approach, we can get an advantage over our customers.

可以說，只要我們改變營銷方式，就能在客戶面前取得優勢。

Or I could use these two words, modify and leverage, to impress.

或者，我可以用這兩個詞--修改和槓桿--來打動人。

Word number seven, similar to talking about problems versus complications.

第七個詞，類似於談論問題與併發症。

We can use ramifications instead of consequences.

我們可以用 "後果 "來代替 "影響"。

A bad consequence is when something negative happens as a result of something else.

不良後果是指由於其他原因而導致的負面結果。

And that word consequence can immediately have a negative feeling with it.

而 "後果 "這個詞馬上就會給人一種負面的感覺。

是以，夯實是一個不錯的選擇。

For example, if your team is talking about how to modify a marketing approach, you definitely need to think about the pros and cons, and what are some of the possible ramifications of making that change.

例如，如果你的團隊正在討論如何修改營銷方法，你肯定需要考慮利弊，以及做出這種改變可能帶來的影響。

We've got just three more words on our list of 10 smart words to be using at work.

在我們的 "工作中應使用的 10 個聰明詞 "清單上，又多了三個詞。

I don't know why, but I love the way it sounds, perplexing.

我不知道為什麼，但我喜歡它的發音，令人費解。

You and I know that confusing things happen at work.

你我都知道，工作中會發生令人困惑的事情。

A customer does something weird, files disappear, someone says they sent you an email, but you never got it.

客戶做了一些奇怪的事情，文件消失了，有人說給你發了一封電子郵件，但你從來沒有收到過。

In those moments, you could say, I'm really confused about that situation, or I'm confused how that happened.

在那一刻，你可以說，我真的很困惑當時的情況，或者我很困惑怎麼會發生這樣的事情。

但一個很好的替代方案卻令人費解。

Or similar to saying I'm confused, we could say I'm perplexed.

與 "我很困惑 "類似，我們也可以說 "我很困惑"。

Smart word number nine is straightforward.

Everyone loves things that are easy to do, easy to understand, and straightforward is a great alternative to using the word easy.

每個人都喜歡容易做、容易理解的事情，直截了當是使用 "容易 "一詞的最佳選擇。

Instead of saying something like, this project is really easy, you could say, this project is really straightforward.

與其說 "這個項目非常簡單"，不如說 "這個項目非常直接"。

Maybe you're working with a new client, and you know that they're going to be wonderful and easy to work with.

也許你正在與一位新客戶合作，你知道他們會很出色，很容易合作。

You could also say, working with this client is going to be really straightforward.

你也可以說，與這位客戶的合作將非常直接。

And finally, we're at smart word number 10 that you should be using at work, kind of.

This word is actually a word that you should avoid, and we're going to replace it with something else.

這個詞實際上是一個應該避免使用的詞，我們將用其他詞代替它。

It has become a filler word, a word that we use when we don't really know what to say.

它已成為一個填充詞，一個我們在不知道該說什麼時使用的詞。

In fact, sometimes I've heard the word like used in the same sentence two, three, four, even five times.

事實上，我有時會聽到同一個句子中出現兩、三、四甚至五次 "喜歡 "這個詞。

In fact, it can sound uncertain when it's used too much.

事實上，如果用得太多，聽起來就會不確定。

But the problem is, it's a really great word for some situations, like when you're going to introduce an example.

但問題是，在某些情況下，比如當你要介紹一個例子時，這確實是個很好的詞。

Did you notice I just used it there to introduce what I wanted to say?

你注意到我只是用它來介紹我想說的話嗎？

That is an appropriate way to use this word, but because the word like is used too much, I want to give you an alternative.

這是使用這個詞的恰當方式，但由於 "喜歡 "這個詞用得太多，我想給大家另一種選擇。

When you need to introduce information or introduce an example, you could use such as or for instance.

當您需要介紹資訊或引入一個例子時，您可以使用比如或例如。
