Hi, folks.My name is Benjamin and welcome back to www. engvid. com.
大家好。我是 Benjamin，欢迎来到 www.engvid.com。
Today we are having a look at phone conversations, and you're going to be learning to ask firstly whether the person you are ringing has time to speak,
今天我们要看看电话会谈，你将学习首先要问你打电话的人有没有时间讲话，
whether it's a good time to call, and then we're going to be looking at explaining to them why we are calling them.Okay?So, let's get started.
这个时间是否合适打电话，之后我们要说明我们为什么打电话给他们。明白么？那么，让我们开始吧。
Now, checking they have time to speak, you would use this if you're...If you're phoning a friend or if you are a business calling an individual.
现在，核实他们有时间讲电话，你会用到这个如果你...如果你正打电话给一个朋友或者是跟一个人的商务会谈。
This is how we do it, so I can say: "Is now a good time to call?"Okay?And here I have "to call" in the infinitive.
我们是这么做的，我可以说：“现在打电话合适么？”对吧？这里我用了动词原形 “to call”。
"Is now"-is right now, now-"a good time to call?"Or I can say: "Is this a good time to call?" Okay?
或者我可以说：“这时候打电话合适么？” 对吧？
Or I could say...If it's to a friend I might say: "Are you busy, Jack?
或者我可以说...如果是打给一个朋友的话我可以说：“你现在忙吗，Jack？
Are you busy?"This is more formal, this is more business talk."Are you free to talk?" Okay?
你忙吗？”这个就更正式，更像是一个商务会谈。“您现在方面谈话么？”明白了么？
It's probably better English.Now, here we have: "Do you have...?"
这或许是更好的英语。这样，这里这里我们可以用：“Do you have...？”
Do you have?Something you have."Do you have a minute?"
你有么？你有某样东西。“你有时间吗？”
Obviously you don't have a minute in your pocket, but: Are you free to talk for one minute?
很明显你口袋里没有时间，但：你有时间聊一会儿么？
"Do you have a minute to", and now we have two options.So we could: "...have a quick chat".Are you free...?
“你有时间”，我们有两个选择搭配。我们可以：“...简单聊几句。”你有时间...？
"Do you have a minute to have a quick chat?" or: "Do you have a minute to speak?"
“你有时间简单聊几句么？”或者：“你有时间讲电话么？”
"Speak" is more formal, it's better for important things.
"Speak" 更显正式，重要事务中最好用它。
"To have a quick chat" is maybe you're working and someone has done something bad, so you're being friendly, but you're saying: "Are you free to have a quick chat?"
"To have a quick chat" 是或许你正在工作，儿某人做错了某事，所以你要表现得友好，但你要说：“你有时间简单聊两句么？”
You're being friendly, but maybe they have done something bad. Okay.
你表现得友好，但或许他们做错了某事。
Now: "Have I rung", past tense of "to ring"..."Have I rung at a bad time?" or: "Have I caught you...?" Okay?Catch a ball.
这里："Have I rung"，"to ring" 的过去式...“我打电话的时间不合时宜吗？”或者："Have I caught you...？"对吧？接住一个球。
"Have I caught you"-I caught you-"at a bad time?"
“我打扰了你”——我打扰你——“在一个不合时宜的时候？”
And then if they say: "No. It's fine. What do you want?"
之后如果他们说：“不，没关系。你有什么事？”
Then I carry on and I give them my reason for calling.
接着，我继续说，告诉他们我打电话的原因。
But if they say: "Yes, actually right now I'm really busy", then I say: "Well, maybe I could call later today, in a few hours' time, tomorrow", then you suggest a better time to call.
但如果他们说：“是的，实际上我现在真的很忙”，接着我就说：“好吧，我晚点再打给你，或者几个小时后，或者明天”，之后你提议一个更恰当的时间打电话。
So, let's just recap.We've got: "Is it a good time to call?",
所以，让我们简要重述一下。我们学了：“现在打电话合适么？”
"Are you busy?", "You free to talk?", "Do you have the minute?", "Do you have a minute?" or: "Have I rung...?", "Is now a bad time?"Okay? Now, the reason for calling.
“你忙吗？”，“你方便说话吗？”，“你有时间吗？”，“你有空吗？”或者："Have I rung...？"，“现在是不合时宜的吗？”对吧？接下来，打电话的原因。
Obviously if I'm just me, Benjamin, and I'm calling a business, then I don't need to say: "Are you free?" because it's their job to be free.
很明显，如果我就是我，Benjamin，而且我是打一个商务电话，这样我不需要说：“你有时间吗？”因为这是他们的工作。
So I just go straight into: "Hello. I'm calling about..." Okay?These are reasons.
所以我只是直接说：“您好，我打电话是...”明白吗？这些是理由。
So: "I am", you shorten it to: "I'm", "I'm calling about", maybe it's a refund, the refund you need to give me or: "I'm calling about..."
所以："I am"，缩写成："I'm"，“我打电话来是因为，" 可能是因为退款，你需要给我的退款，或者说："我打电话来是因为..."
So we can have a verb plus "ing", so: "I'm calling about organising a meeting with."
我们可以接加"ing"的动词，所以“我打电话来是关于组织一场会议。”
Okay? So we have verb, let's just put a verb in, "organise", and then I would cross out the "e" and put "ing".
明白了么？我们用动词，我们加入一个动词 "organise"，之后我把 "e"去掉加 "ing"。
"I'm calling about", a noun and a verb plus "ing".You do that one or you do that one.
"I'm calling about"，一个名词和动词加“ing”。你可以用这个或者用这个。
These are all patterns using noun or verb+ing until here.
直到这里都是各种使用名词或者动词加ing的模板。
Next one, this is a very formal style of English: "It's with regard to...It's with regard to my refund", "organising the meeting". Okay?
接下来，英语中很正式的一种形式：“它是关于...它是关于我的退款”，“组织会议”。对吧？
But this is formal English.If you want to impress someone, use this one."It's about..." Okay?
但这是一种正式英语。如果你想给某人留下印象，就用这种方式。“它是关于...”明白吗？
If I'm calling my friend."Hiya, Jack.It's about the party.", "It's about playing football on Saturday."
如果我是打给我的朋友。“嗨，Jack。我打电话是问问关于派对。”，“关于周六的派对。”
Okay? So this is...This is more friends, this one.This is smart, and this can be both. Okay?
对吧？所以这是...这是更倾向于朋友之间的。这个是聪明的方式，这个两者都可以。
"Calling about...", "With regard to...", "It's about..."
"打电话是为了..."，"跟...有关"，"它是关于..."
A couple of different ones here: "I'd like to", and then we need our verb in the infinitive.
这里还有一些不同的方式："I'd like to"，接着我们需要用动词原形。
"I'm calling because I'd like to show you my CV.
我打电话是因为我想向你展示我的简历。
Can we organise a time for me to bring it to you?" Okay?
我们能约一个时间，我把它带给你看看吗？”明白了吗？
Because I'd like to organise a time to meet, I'd like to plan next week. Okay?
因为我想要约一个时间见面，我计划约在下周。对吧？
Verb in the infinitive."I'm phoning to..."So you've got: "I'd like to" or "I'm phoning to".
动词原形。“我打电话来...”这样你已经学习了："I'd like to"或者 "I'm phoning to"。
I hope that makes sense. Okay?It's just a very simple pattern, system for starting a phone conversation.
我希望这是有意义的。只是一个很简单的模板，体系，用来开始一个电话会谈。
I've already been through this, but: "Are you busy?"Make sure they have time, make sure it's a good time to talk.
这些都已经讲完了，除了："Are you busy？"确定他们有时间，确保现在打电话的时间是合适的。
If it is, tell them why and then you start your phone conversation.Check out the quiz on www. engvid. com.
