Point 72 ”take it easy” 初級ビジネス英会話
初級者向けビジネス英会話 Bizmates for beginners 第72弾は、”take it easy” です。
帰り際の英語での挨拶、皆さんはどんなフレーズを使っていますか？
今回は、カジュアルな場面で使える帰り際の挨拶を紹介します。
例えば、ヒカは帰宅する際に同僚のタロウに
“See you, Taro.”「またね、タロウ。」と言いました。
「それじゃ、またね。」と声をかける場合、あなたがタロウなら英語で何と言いますか？
“Goodbye.”「バイバイ。」
でも問題ないのですが感情がこもっていないように聞こえてしまうかもしれません。
そこで
“Take it easy.”「それじゃ、またね。」
と言ってみましょう。より自然に感情がこもった挨拶になります。
ぜひこの表現を使ってみてください。
