有關(guān)商務(wù)英語交流中的幾種新鮮的精選說法

　　1.add up to

　　合計(jì)達(dá);總括起來意味著.此語本義指'合計(jì)為',在日常生活中多用喻義,即'總括起來意味著'.在使用中應(yīng)注意與'add up'一詞的區(qū)別.'add up'本指'把 … 加起來',其喻義為'言之有理,說得通'

　　如:The facts just don't add up.(這些事情合計(jì)起來不對(duì)頭.)

　　A:His cashier said he had locked the safe before he left. 出納說他走時(shí)把保險(xiǎn)柜鎖上了.

　　A:It adds up to the fact that we have been cheated. 意味著我們被騙了.

　　2.agree to differ

　　求同存異,指的是'各自保留不同意見(不再說服對(duì)方)',意即'求同存異'.

　　A:What do you mean? 你是什么意思?

　　B:Considering the major contracts they might give us, I overlooked the small loss. 考慮到他們可能與我們簽訂大宗合同,小小的損失我就忽略不計(jì)了.

　　A:So you agreed to differ? 所以你就求同存異?

　　B:That's right. 沒.

　　3.all told

　　合計(jì);總之.此語原義為'總計(jì),合計(jì)',引申為'總之'.

　　如:All told,it was a great credit to them.(總之,這給他們大大增了光.)

　　A: How many people attended today's meeting?有多少人參加了今天的會(huì)議?

　　B: There were seventeen of us at the meeting, all told. 一共有十七個(gè)人.

　　A: Issue an announcement that if somebody doesn't attend meeting next time, his or her bonus will be deducted. 發(fā)布一則通知,就說如果有人下一次不參加會(huì)議,他或她的獎(jiǎng)金全扣.

　　4.all wet

　　搞錯(cuò)了,wet原義為'濕的',引申為某人'沒經(jīng)驗(yàn)',All wet多見于美國俚語,意為'大錯(cuò)特錯(cuò)'.

　　A:I made a reservation two days ago. My name is David Johnson. 我前天在這兒預(yù)訂了房間,我叫戴維-約翰遜.

　　B:Reservation? What do you mean? 預(yù)訂?什么意思?

　　A:I booked a single room here for tonight. 我訂了一間今晚的單人房.
