Hello everyone! Justin here and welcome
back to another Bizmates for Beginners
0:00:04.980,0:00:10.170
video lesson where every week we
introduce new idiom, phrase, or expression
0:00:10.170,0:00:15.540
that you can use in your daily business
conversation. This week everyone, we are
0:00:15.540,0:00:22.840
going to learn: FYI. FYI, which means
that's right, for your information.
0:00:22.840,0:00:26.460
So let's find out how to use this
in our class today.
0:00:26.460,0:00:32.579
Alright, but first as always let's begin
with a quick review of last week's
0:00:32.579,0:00:40.500
lesson. Okay everyone, so imagine I asked
you: How's the research going? But it is
0:00:40.500,0:00:47.039
very difficult because there's a lot of
scientific research and it's really hard
0:00:47.039,0:00:53.039
to understand. So how do you say that
using the expression from last week? I'll
0:00:53.040,0:00:57.140
give you five seconds. Are you ready? Okay, go!
0:01:01.180,0:01:11.380
Alright and time is up. If you said: It's tough. I can't
wrap my head around this scientific writing.
0:01:11.380,0:01:14.700
Then that's exactly right.
Well done and thank you for remembering
0:01:14.700,0:01:21.150
last week's class. Okay everyone, let's
move on to: FYI. Now this is what I
0:01:21.150,0:01:25.380
sometimes hear. Okay so,
my good friend and colleague
0:01:25.380,0:01:33.600
Taro, he wants to tell me something. Okay,
he says: Please know we will not have our
0:01:33.600,0:01:40.860
staff meeting this week. Please go. Okay
and I say got it thanks for letting me
0:01:40.860,0:01:46.950
know. Alright so this is pretty easy to
understand. Please know but you might hear
0:01:46.950,0:01:54.040
a native English speakers say: FYI we
will not have our staff meeting this week.
0:01:54.040,0:01:57.030
Okay and I say got it thanks for
letting me know.
0:01:57.030,0:02:04.170
So whenever you want to tell someone
some new information. Alright, you can
0:02:04.170,0:02:13.080
say: FYI. But this is mostly used for some
kind of announcement. So for example,
0:02:13.080,0:02:20.840
FYI our barbecue this weekend is canceled
because of the typhoon. Or FYI it's a
0:02:20.850,0:02:29.040
long weekend this weekend. Or FYI we'll
all be getting our bonuses this year.
0:02:29.040,0:02:34.890
Alright? So it's kind of for more
announcements okay. FYI which is short
0:02:34.890,0:02:40.830
for, for your information. Okay? Alright
so please remember this for next time.
0:02:40.830,0:02:45.090
Okay so let's practice everyone, so
please repeat after me:
0:02:45.090,0:02:55.080
FYI we will not have our staff meeting
this week. Your turn!
0:02:55.080,0:03:00.600
Okay excellent great. So please remember this for our review next time. Okay everyone so our bonus
0:03:00.600,0:03:09.150
question this week is another way to say:
I agree. Okay, so if someone expresses or
0:03:09.150,0:03:15.840
says their opinion and you want to say I
agree, how do you say that using a better
0:03:15.840,0:03:20.519
expression? Okay we covered this in one
of our previous Bizmates for Beginners
0:03:20.519,0:03:25.590
video lessons so take a look if you have
the time. And I'll give you a hint okay,
0:03:25.590,0:03:32.340
it starts with 'I' and then something to
do with the number two. Okay?
0:03:32.340,0:03:37.650
Alright, so please think about it. Okay everyone, so
that is it for us this week. Thank you
0:03:37.650,0:03:41.640

everyone and I will see you next time.
0:03:41.640,0:03:44.150
Bye bye!
