Good point! 商務(wù)會議常用英語（二） 英語中一詞多義的現(xiàn)象很普遍。很多詞在不同的領(lǐng)域有不同的意思。因此難免造成歧義和誤解。當(dāng)你不明白的時候，你需要別人澄清，當(dāng)你講到一個可能產(chǎn)生很多歧義的問題時，你也需要為聽眾說明。下面是一些商務(wù)會議上常用的要求澄清和澄清時要用的“業(yè)務(wù)”語言，看看你用得上不？ Asking for Clarification 要求澄清 I don't quite follow you.

Could we have some more details, please? Clarifying 澄清 Let me spell it out... Have I made that clear? Do you see what I'm getting at? Let me put this another way...
