Bizmates初級ビジネス英会話Point 108 ”an excellent track record”
初級者向けビジネス英会話 Bizmates for beginners 第108弾は、”an excellent track record.” です。
自分の職場に新しく入ってきた社員の、これまでの実績について話す機会ってありますよね。
今回はそんな場面で使える表現を紹介します。
例えば、ヒカは同僚のタロウに、
“Why did we hire Jun?”「なぜ彼を雇ったの?」と聞きました。
「彼には素晴らしい実績があるから。」と返答したい場合、あなたがタロウなら英語で何と言いますか?
“He made great performance before.”「彼は以前、偉大な実績を作ったんだ。」
でも伝わりますが、不自然で堅苦しく聞こえてしまいます。
そこで、
“He has an excellent track record.” 「彼には素晴らしい実績があるんだ。」
と言ってみましょう。自然な表現です。
発音もビデオでチェック!
ぜひこの表現を使ってみてください。
