I studied hard yesterday by solving problems for the correspondence course. Also, I sent back a reply to the trial exam for the company. That exam was the translation exam that would test me and decide whether they hire me at a translator or not. So I was a little nervous and took the exam seriously. The exam was about translating the IT related documents and I thought I did pretty well. I used an on-line dictionary to translate it.
Today, I listened to the radio English programs for both practical business English and introductory business English. In the program of practical business English, the topic was about April fool’s day again. I think office environment sometimes need to relax so that they need time to say some jokes. However, these jokes should not confuse the works that employees do.
In the program of introductory business English, they used two words, such as alliance and align to talk about the business situation. They said that using words other than “communication” would be useful in the business setting.
