Learn how and when to use formal English

★ 學習正式英文的表達方式及時機 ★

We speak in different ways, depending on the situation we’re in. When we’re with our friends, we speak casually. We may be careless about our grammar and use a lot of slang. In more formal situations, however, we ought to speak more carefully and respectfully. Such situations may include speaking with new acquaintances, people in authority, and older people. Meetings and class discussions call for more formal English, too.

In this lesson, you’ll learn key phrases that can be used in these formal settings.

我們隨著所處情況而有不同的說話方式。和朋友在一起時，會隨性地聊天，也許較不注意文法，還會使用很多俚語;但是在較正式的場合，就應該更小心謙恭地表達，這些場合包括與剛認識的朋友、權威人士及年長者說話。會議及課堂上的討論也需要用比較正式的英文。

在這一課，你將學到可以在這些正式場合使用的重要慣用語。
