Passive Agressive

你聽老外說一句話，貌似聽懂了，但是他們真正是這么想的么？Lucy 老師告訴你不同的場合下它們真正的意思是什么。

Let's get started with the lesson.

1. It seems there has been a misunderstanding.

meaning: I gave you the necessary information, but you clearly did not follow the instructions correctly.

2. I understand it's not your fault, but ..

meaning: I probably IS your fault, and you need to fix the issue regardless.

3.Let's circle back later. = We'll come back to that later.

meaning: What you have just said is not important at the moment.

4.Let's stick a pin in this for now.

meaning: This is entirely irrelevant, and we will never be looking at this again.

5.That's an interesting perspecctive.

meaning: That is a ridiculous idea, and I can't believe you actually just said that.

6.As per my previous email.

I've already given you this information. Can you not read?

7.We'll take that into consideration.

meaning: We will forget all about this after this conversation.

paw-ternity leave = fur-ternity leave: 這2個當(dāng)代新詞，意思是陪寵物假

8.Thanks for the input.

meaning: Your unwanted opinion is not welcome.

9.Let's play it by ear.

I hear what youare saying, but it's not going to happen.

10.With all due respect...

meaning: You are not going to like what I am about to say ...

11.As I previously stated...

meaning: I have already told you, why must I repeat it?

12.I respectfully disagree.

You are wholly and utterly wrong.

13.For future reference...

So you don't mess (screw) up again in the future.

14.As I am sure you are aware...

I've told you this a million times.

Three ways to end an email:

1. warmest regards = I love you
2. kind regards: = you're ok
3. regards: = You're the worst
