This is the first in a series of Business English Practice Pods that review and extend the language that is covered in the regular podcast. Practice pod dialogs will revise key language but in different situations. أيضا, they give you more opportunities to practice what you’ve learned.
We’ll hear several idioms from التعابير الرياضية 1 (أفضل الممارسات البيئية 57) و 2 (أفضل الممارسات البيئية 58) being used in a new context in today’s dialog:
– to play ball
– to stall for time
– to keep/have one’s eye on the ball
– to step up to the plate
We’ll see how these idioms are useful in a different context, a business meeting. After the dialog, we’ll hear some further example phrases and then have a chance to practice using these idioms. جين, Ken and Ryan of Ambient are in a marketing meeting discussing Accent’s recent buyout of Telstar.
