영어공부 9탄 (평범한 문장도 격식을 차린 문장- Did you get a chance to +~/ If you don't mind me asking~)

평범한 문장도 격식을 차려서 말할수 있어요.

blunt : 무딘/ 직설적인

 

1. Did you get a chance to +R.V.? 혹시 ! 할 시간/기회 있었어?

Did you read my e-mail?/ Did you get a chance to read my e-mail? (좀 더 격식있고 공손한 표현)

DId you call her? / Did you get a chance to call her?

Did you get a chance to look over the material?

Did you get a chance to look at the material last night?

Sorry to interrupt. Did you get a chance to sign thse papers?

 

2. If you don't mind me / my asking~ : 이런 질문 드려도 될지 모르겠지만~

If you don't mind my asking~ (격식)

If you don't mind me asking~(캐쥬얼)

ex) If you don't mind me asking, why did you and your wife split up?

If you don't mind me asking, what do you do for living?

What does he do, if you don't mind my asking?

Where are you from, Miss if you don't mind me asking.

What is the procedure, if you don't mind my asking?

 

3. With all due respect~ : 외람된 말씀이지만, 죄송하지만~ (상대가 듣고 싶어 하지 않을 말을 하기전에 씀)

You are wrong.

I think you are wrong.

With all due respect, I think you are wrong.

With all due respect, this is crazy.

With all due respect, this doesn't feel right.

* 캐쥬얼한 버전 : No offense, but~

 

4. If possible : 가능하다면 ( 뭔가 요청할때)

Can I get a quiet room if possible?

Tea, Herbal if possible, please.

I hope you will attend, if possible.

 

5. I was wondering if~ (조심스레 상대의 의사나 가능성을 물어보는) ~ 해도 괜찮을지 궁금해요.

I wonder if~ < I am wondering if~< I was wondering if~

I was wondering if I could ask you a question.

*단순히 can I ask~ 보다 휘씬 더 정중해죠.

I was wondering if you were available this evening.

*단순히 Are you available~ 보다 휘씬 더 정중해죠.

 

6. let me +R.V. <Allow me + R.V.<please allow mw to + R.V.

'let me~'보다 격식을 차려서 Allow me to introduce myself.

Allow me to help you. ( 캐쥬얼 하게 'let me help you'  로 대체 가능)

Please allow me to begin. ( 캐쥬얼 하게 'let me begin' 로 대체 가능)
