Insisting on a change

A: I’m sorry, Brad. But you are going to have to re-do this.

B: What’s the problem, Ms. Murphy?

A: It’s badly organized. I can’t present this to the board.

B: I’m sorry. Ms. Murphy. I’ll re-work it. Can I give it back to you this afternoon?

堅持修改

A：對不起，布萊德。可這個你得重新做一遍。

B：有什麼問題，摩菲女士？

A：這太亂了。我無法向董事會提交。

B：對不起，摩菲女士。我重新做過。今天下午把它交給您，行嗎？

Reminding a co-worker

A: Martin? Did you remember to bring back that software I lent you?

B: Oh, Kate! I’m sorry. It completely slipped my mind!

A: That’s okay, Martin. If you could just bring it in tomorrow, I’d appreciate it.

B: Definitely. I’m really sorry!

提醒同事

A：馬丁？你記著把我借給你的軟體帶來了嗎？

B：噢，凱特！對不起。全忘在腦後了！

A：沒關係，馬丁。如果你能明天把它帶來，我會很高興的。

B：一定。我真的非常抱歉！
