英文メールの書き方：有益な情報を同僚にシェアする
こんなシチュエーション、お仕事でありませんか？
調べ物をしている最中に、自分ではなく同僚の仕事に役立ちそうなサイトを発見。同僚に要点を添えてシェアしたい。
英文メールで「有益な情報を同僚にシェアする」お手本を動画でチェック！
こちらの動画では、伝えるべきメッセージとニュアンスを書き手が考えているところから、以下の内容のメールを実際に英語で書く様子までをご覧いただけます。

ジャスティン、
私のプロジェクトに関連するリサーチをしていたところ、そちらのお仕事の役に立つかもしれないデータが見つかりました。
学術論文なので読みにくいかもしれませんが、添付ファイルの79ページに大手グローバル企業50社を対象にした大規模なアンケート調査の結果があります。
よかったら見てみてください。

Hello everyone! Welcome to E-mail Picks.
I've been working on a whole new project
0:00:09.450,0:00:14.460
lately and I'm doing a lot of research
on the internet. So I'm looking at
0:00:14.460,0:00:19.470
different countries to see what their
GDP growth rates are - like what people's
0:00:19.470,0:00:24.720
lives are like - things like that. When I
do research, I always look for academic
0:00:24.720,0:00:30.090
research papers. They are long and
difficult to understand - yes - but that
0:00:30.090,0:00:35.340
means not many people are willing to
read through them, which means you can
0:00:35.340,0:00:41.430
access data - very interesting data - that
not many business people know about.
0:00:41.430,0:00:45.809
So research papers, they are a box of
treasure. So I found this research paper
0:00:45.809,0:00:51.059
a university in England had put together
and as I was reading through it I felt
0:00:51.059,0:00:57.329
my colleague, Justin, might find these data
very useful in his own projects and
0:00:57.329,0:01:01.739
I like pretending to be a nice guy.
so today I'm going to write an e-mail to
0:01:01.740,0:01:07.080
Justin to share this useful information.
So let me show you how that email will go:
0:01:08.100,0:01:10.200
Hi Justin, I was doing a little
research related to my project and I
0:01:12.119,0:01:16.470
came across data that you may find
useful. It's an academic research paper
0:01:16.470,0:01:22.200
that will not look too appetizing, but on
page 79 of the attached PDF are the
0:01:22.200,0:01:26.729
results of a massive survey on career
development at 50 major international
0:01:26.729,0:01:31.950
companies. Check it out. Kyota.
Okay so in my first paragraph, I'm
0:01:31.950,0:01:37.950
hinting at why I'm sending this email.
I wrote "I came across data that you may
0:01:37.950,0:01:44.369
find useful" and then I warned Justin
that this is an academic paper. Academic
0:01:44.369,0:01:50.100
papers are often very very long and
difficult to read. "Will not look too
0:01:50.100,0:01:55.490
appetizing" is just another way of saying
this won't be an easy document to read.
0:01:55.490,0:02:01.799
So I suggested that he only read page 79,
which has the information he may be
0:02:01.799,0:02:06.240
interested in. This way, Justin won't need
to waste so much time trying to look
0:02:06.240,0:02:11.670
through all 100 pages of this paper.
So there you go, an e-mail to share useful
0:02:11.670,0:02:16.709
information with a colleague. If Justin actually reads this paper, we'll have something to
0:02:16.709,0:02:20.970
discuss later, which is always fun.
Alright, so that's it for today. Thank you
0:02:20.970,0:02:24.410
for watching and I'll see you next week
