Bridging Communication Gaps for Career Advancement
Effective communication is more than a technical skill. It's a critical soft skill that can set the stage for professional growth and promotion.
For non-native English speakers, mastering these subtle yet powerful email techniques is a step towards ensuring clarity and professionalism in all your workplace interactions.
A well-crafted expression for this scenario could be: "I humbly request your clarification on [specific aspect].Your expertise in this area is highly valued, and your prompt response would be greatly appreciated."
Examples of formal phrases when asking for clarifications include: "I beg your pardon, could you please repeat that?" or "Excuse me, would you mind elaborating on what you just said?" These phrases show respect and politeness towards the person speaking.
The appropriate response is to make it clear that you didn't understand, and request clarification from the speaker. One option is to politely explain that you didn't understand a part of the message, and ask for the speaker to repeat all of it. Read and listen to these possible responses.
If you need clarification on what an interviewer asks you, politely requesting clarification is entirely reasonable. You can say, "I want to ensure that I give you the information you're looking for; please, could you re-phrase the question?" It's unlikely that you'll need to ask this more than once in an interview.
Let's listen to a few useful phrases: I'm sorry but I'm not sure (that) I understand. Sorry, I'm not sure (that) I know what you mean. Sorry but I don't quite follow you.
Here are some common phrases and expressions that will help you ask for clarification or express your lack of understanding. CLARIFYING INFORMATION: checking that you've understood. Does that mean … / Do you mean … ? If I understand correctly, you're asking me to … I don't think I quite understand what you mean.
Instead, a professional response entails acknowledging the misunderstanding and respectfully seeking clarification. Using phrases like, “I want to ensure I grasp this concept correctly.Could you elaborate on the steps involved?”, demonstrates a constructive and proactive approach.
