Quandary
左右為難
Have you sent a message and said you were in a "quandary"? You should know that the word means you are in a total state of perplexity. I mean, you are really perplexed. That's not often the case when it comes to a new business proposal or fundraising round.
你是否在郵件中說過自己’左右為難’?你應(yīng)該知道這個詞意味著你在一種完全困惑的狀態(tài)。我的意思你真的不知所措。但在一份新的商業(yè)提案或融資過程中通常不是這種情況。
Likely
貌似
Few of us are in the business of predicting the future. If you say something is "likely" in an email, you are expressing to the recipient that you are not really sure about the topic, and you don't have all the facts yet. It's likely that you just lack confidence.
幾乎沒有人從事預(yù)測未來的的工作。如果你在郵件中說一件事‘貌似’,你就是在向收件人表達你對這個話題并不確定。,而且你還沒有掌握所有情況。你可能只是缺乏自信。
