Many people believe the fi이 lowing: Business English must be difficul1 We believe they are wrong

In our years of teaching English, we have frequently looked for a book that teaches basic business English Unfortunately, we have not found one For that reason, we decided to write this book

Business English Communication is a book for everyone interested in business English This book is for those of you who expect to work with speakers of English in the future after you graduate This book is also for those of you who use English at work now but do not have the confidence that you have mastered fundamentals There are no PowerPoint presentations in this book There are no negotiation strategies in this book Those are for later books in this series This book is about the fundamentals that no businessperson can be withou1 You have to communicate wel1 in English to

do business smoothly We designed this book to help you do EXACTLY tha1

The conversations in the book are set at a foreign company in Seoul that has both American and Korean employees This ensures that the conversations, as well as the exercises and cultural lessons

in every chapter, focus on words, phrases , and situations that are important to those of you in Korea who are looking to improve you business English abilities

This book focuses on the four main skills- speaking, listening, reading, and writing- by providing many different exercises for you Each chapter has a main focus- either a grammar lesson or a specific topic AIso, each chapter has a section on Western business culture Students should not only know English but should also know the culture it comes from A person with excel1ent English can still make cultural mistakes that may lead to problems and misunderstandings in the workplace Thec비 tural section should help students understand Western culture better

Whether you are studying in the classroom or in your own room, you will find this book convenient

to use We hope to have an online lecture series to support this book very soon But we have made using this book simple enough that you can 1εarn much by studying on your own There is an answer key and a listening CD The answer key will let you check your answers without a teacher

The CD willlet you learn the proper pronunciation and intonation of the book’s conversatlons

There are always many people involved in the writing of a book This was surely the case for us First, and most importantly, we would like to thank everyone at Darakwon for their assistance

in writing this book Isaac would also like i:e thank his family for their endless support Michael would like to thank his dog Choco for helping him keep a smile on his face while writing this book

We hope you all enjoy our book, and we wish you the best of luck in your studies of the English language

A Read the following on Western business culture ~짧웹

Like Korean, English has formal and informal language In Western business culture, you should always use formal language It is rude or imp이 ite to use informal language Here are some examples:

8unmin: Going to a meeting

Amy: Who are you meeting now?

John: 1’m meeting a client right now

Amy: Who are you meeting now?

John: A client

The formal expressions above use complete sentences The informal sentences do NOT use complete sentences In business situations, you should always use complete sentences Giving short answers like “Going to a meeting" or “A client" is VERY rude to people you do not know Between friends, it is okay BUT when possible, in business situations , avoid incomplete sentences 80, give long answers with a subject, verb, and object in any business situation That

is both polite and correct English
