Welcome back to Business English Pod today’s lesson on discussing the ekonomi.
Listen to the news, the politicians, or your coworkers, and what do you hear them talking about? The economy. It’s up or it’s down. It’s good or it’s bad. Conditions are improving or getting worse. And it’s important to us because as the economy goes, so goes our business and careers.
But what do people mean when they say the economy? Is there only one economy? Kuyu, in this global age, the economy often refers to the world economy. But we also say the economy to talk about a specific country, whether it’s our own or another country we’re doing business with. Bu derste, you’ll hear about a few different economies and you’ll learn some common expressions used to discuss economic conditions.
dinlemeden önce, let’s talk a little about eşdizimler. Eşdizimlilik, anadili İngilizce olan kişilerin sıklıkla birlikte kullandığı bir sözcük grubudur.. Doğru bir sıralama kulağa doğal geliyor, yanlış bir sıralama doğal değil gibi görünürken. Örneğin, in English we say “go online” to talk about using the Internet. But we can’t say “proceed online” or “travel online,” even though “proceed” and “travel” mean “go.” Those simply aren’t natural expressions.
Bugünün iletişim kutusunda birçok yararlı eşdizim duyacaksınız. Dinledikçe, bu doğal kelime kombinasyonlarını seçmeye çalışın. Sonra ne anlama geldiklerini ve bilgilendirmede nasıl kullanılacağını açıklayacağız..
