商务英语写作指导:请你拼出名字

  Would you please spell the name?
          在 一点的国际公司中,一般都会有总机接线生(operator)帮你转接各个部门的电话。因此当你听到接线生说:Would you please
spell the name?时, 最好能将受话人的名字拼出来;如果名字过长,则可要求接线生在复述一遍,以免发生“搭错线”的尴尬情形。
          (O=operator, C=Chinese)
          O: DEF Company. May I help you?
          C: Yes, please. May I talk to Mr. Brown? (Put me through to Mr. Brown.)
          O: I beg your pardon?
          C: Mr. Brown, please.
          O: Would you spell the name, please? (May I have the spelling, please?)
          C: That's B-R-O-W-N.
          O: B-R-O-W-N, correct?
          C: That's right.
          O: You are calling Mr. Brown in the Foreign Department?
          C: Yes.
          O: Thank you for waiting. (I'm sorry to have kept you waiting.) He is on
the line. Go ahead, please.
