How to ask for LESS or MORE DETAIL - Business English communication lesson

Send us a text

Telling your colleagues, clients, and customers, in English that you need more detail, or maybe less detail can be difficult. Especially if you're a non-native English speaker and you use English at work as a second language. In this podcast I give you some great vocabulary that you can use to ask someone elaborate on something, or maybe to be a little more concise. So, if you want to sound more native and natural when speaking English at work, then I hope today's podcast is useful for you!

Also, if you're studying for the IELTS, TOEFL, or Cambridge English tests and exams then you might find some of the vocabulary in this episode really useful.

This podcast is all about helping you to communicate better, in English, at work. I work with international English speakers from around the world who use English, at work, as a second or third language and I hope that I can bring some of the ideas, vocabulary, and grammar, from those sessions, to you in this podcast.

Don’t forget that my full time job is helping international professionals who use English at work to improve their communication skills. So, if you need English to do your job but don’t speak it natively then maybe we can work together to help you to achieve your language goals.

Today's examples:

I know we don’t have much time so I’ll keep it short and sweet.

This is just a succinct summary of the work we’ve been doing.

If you could be a little more concise I’d really appreciate it.

Could you elaborate on that a little for us please

I think you’ve got the bones of a good presentation there but you really need to flesh it out a little.

You mentioned that you had an idea for us earlier, could you expand on that a little please?
