International meetings

Discussion: Interrupting

Could you think of examples of interrupting others during a meeting? Especially during an international meeting!

What is the *‘right’ thing to say?

*Modal verbs:the principal English modal verbs are can, could, may, might, shall, should, will, would and must.

There is a very common way to ‘soften’ what you say. It is not really to apologise but it is used to tell the listener: ‘I’m going to say or do something you might not like, so please don’t get upset’.

 Use I think or I feel

I feel quite strongly that we’re bringing this out too soon …’

‘I don’t think we’ve got any choice …’

Acknowledge people
