Point 83 ”scientifically proven” 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83弾は、”scientifically proven” です。
自分の意見としてだけではなく、証明されている事実であることを伝えることで説得力が増すことってありますよね。
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
“I read that happier people live longer.”「幸せな人は長生きするって読んだんだけどさ。」と半信半疑な様子で言いました。
「それって科学的に証明されてるよ。」と伝えたい場合、あなたがタロウなら英語で何と言いますか？
“It’s true.”「それは本当だよ。」
でも伝わりますが、意見として聞こえてしまう可能性があります。
そこで、証明されている事実として伝えたい場合は、
“It’s been scientifically proven.”「それって科学的に証明されてるよ。」
と言ってみましょう。
