Business culture: can you say it again, please?
Completion requirements
请 您 重 说 一 遍 好 吗
Qǐng nín chóng shuō yī biàn hǎo ma
Could you please repeat what you said?
In business meetings, you might not immediately understand what the other
person just said. It’s a problem that happens to even native speakers of
Chinese. There’s no need to be embarrassed over not understanding. You can
politely ask the speaker to repeat him/herself by saying:
请您重说一遍好吗
(qǐng nín chóng
shuō yī biàn hǎo ma)?
我 明白 了, 谢谢
Wǒ míngbái le xièxiè
I understand, thank you
Once you are able to understand, confirm that you got it by saying:
我明白了, 谢谢
(wǒ míngbái
le, xiè xiè).
And if you still don’t understand, you can ask them to repeat
themselves again by saying:
请您重说一遍好吗
(qǐng nín chóngshuō yī biàn hǎo ma)?
