A: Robin, I was wondering if there are any right or wrong ways to make a phone call? I have been learning English for a long time and still can't make a correct phone call!
我想知道打电话时有没有什么方法，我学英语很久了，可还是不能正确的打电话
D: WellThe most important is to always introduce yourself politely. A common mistake that many Chinese people make is to say: "I am *****" when in fact you should say " This is *****".
重要的是别忘了礼貌的介绍自己。中国人常犯的错误就是他们总说I am……实际上我们说this is……
A: Oh, I will have to remember that!
噢。我得记住这个
D: Another thing that might interest you is, you should never say " I want to talk to *****" or " who am I talking to", these are both considered rude. A better way is to say " Could I please speak to*****" or " "May I ask whose speaking?"
另外还有。记住，不要说，我想同。。。说话，或是谁在说话，好一点的说法是，我可以同，，，说话吗?或请问您是谁啊?.
A: You're right, That does sound so much more polite!
对，这样听起来礼貌多了
D: Another thing to remember is that there are different ways of conducting phone calls depending on who you are talking to, i.e. If you are talking to someone about business or work it is always best to be as formal as possible. When you talk to friends however, you can be very informal…
另外还有要注意你在和谁通话。谈工作时要正式一些。和朋友打电话时要随意一些
A: What do you mean by informal?
怎么叫随意?
D: I mean, instead of answering the phone "hello, this is ***** speaking" You can say things like "what's up, who's this?" and " hey what's going on?". .
我是说接电话时不用说你好，我是****。你可以说哪位?和嘿，有什么事?
A: OK, I see.
这样啊
D: There are some more "rules" that I can give if you are interested?
还有呢
A: Sure!
什么?
D: It is a good idea to ask someone if they are busy before you start having a long conversation. In my opinion it is a good idea to keep phone calls as brief as possible…
长谈之前要问对方忙不忙。不过我觉得电话还是短一些好。
A: (chuckles) Why make your calls short?
{笑声}我知道了，可为什么要短一些呢?
D: Well for one thing it keeps you're phone bills low (laughs) and another is many people are busy, and don't have time to chat away for a long time..
首先这样可以省话费。另外人们都很忙，没时间聊很久
A：I think you are right…Speaking of which, I need to go myself, a movie I want to see is coming on TV…I'll talk to you later.
我想你说得对，说起忙，我得走了，电视上有我喜欢的片子。再聊吧
D: OK, talk to you later.
好，再见
Attention Please…特别提醒…
{1}this is……是我们经常犯的错误，受汉语的影响，我们打电话时总说I am….我是….,我们的办法就是养成习惯.
{2}Could I speak to…我可以喝***讲话吗?和May I ask who is speaking?我可以问一下您是哪位吗?这是很礼貌的说法。可千万别说成who am I talking to ?或是I want to talk to……这是很不礼貌的说法{3}和朋友聊天的时侯，就没必要搞得那么正式了，通常的说法是what's up,buddy?或what's going on?最近怎么样?
