我們每天都要到打交道的辦公室里的常用物品,如文具、家具、設(shè)備之類的,都用英語怎么表達(dá)呢?西雅圖工作英語的專家們,通過對上百位各行各業(yè)的白領(lǐng)進(jìn)行調(diào)查發(fā)現(xiàn):有60%的白領(lǐng)不清楚如何用英語準(zhǔn)確表達(dá)自己身邊的物品。而這些單詞都是工作英語里的必備詞匯,是外企白領(lǐng)必須掌握的。所以,我們就總結(jié)出辦公室里的常用物品的英文單詞,而且分成文具類、家具類和設(shè)備及配件類,還配有相應(yīng)的英語對話,方便大家理解和使用。記不住的朋友們可以把它當(dāng)成小詞典,以后用到時(shí)查閱就可以了。
