Suspect
懷疑
Unless you are talking about a suspect in a trial, avoid saying you "suspect" anything. You're not Sherlock Holmes. Just use direct terms: You know an investor is pulling out of the project, and here's why; or you have facts to support your conclusion on a new marketing plan.
除非你在討論一個審判中的嫌疑人,否則不要說你‘懷疑’某事。你不是福爾摩斯。就用那些直接的措辭:你知道投資者在退出項目,這是原因;或者你有證據支撐你對一項新市場計劃的結論。
I suspect there will be a company takeover.
我懷疑公司要被收購了。
I suspect there is a catch to their proposal offer.
我懷疑他們的提議另有隱情。
重重的疑慮只會讓人心生不安,還會影響到你的人際關系。快快把疑慮從你的言談中抹掉吧!勇敢接受你所看到的,好好想想怎樣交涉更有效。
Unlike the previous words, which mostly affects the speaker, suspect brings a shadow of suspicion on another person’s motive and sows intrigue and fear in others. Verbalizing your negative thinking contaminates those around you. It causes low morale and an air of distrust that affects relationships and productivity. Drop suspect altogether from your thoughts and speech. Stop judging, accept news and gestures at face value, and improve your interpersonal skills.
