TOP TIP! - Best ways to learn new business vocabulary
Here are two more tips to help you learn basic Business English vocabulary effectively, especially if you are a beginner:
Make very short sentences for each word
Do not worry about long sentences. Short, clear sentences are best for beginners.
How to practice:
• Write one easy sentence for each word.
• Use present simple tense.
Examples:
• Meeting → “We have a meeting.”
• Email → “I send an email.”
• Client → “The client calls.”
Tip:
If you can say the sentence without stopping, you are learning correctly.
Learn common word pairs (collocations)
Some words are often used together. Learning them together helps you speak correctly.
Easy examples:
• send an email
• have a meeting
• make a plan
• meet a client
Practice:
Say the full phrase, not only the word:
“send an email” (not only “email”)
