안녕하세요 지식마블입니다.
오늘은 비즈니스 컨퍼런스를 준비하기 위해
사전에 나누는 대화들에 대한 예문 알아보도록 하겠습니다.
H: Hannah
S: Steve
H: National Auditorium.
S: Hello, Can I speak to Sam Fingal, please?
H: He's not in the office at the moment. I'm Hannah, his assistant. Can I help you instead?
S: Sure. My name is Steve from Pacific Events, and I'm calling to find out about equipment at the auditorium for the conference in October.
H: OK, What would you like to know?
S: Can you tell me what you've got in the main conference room?
H: Well, it's quite big, so there are no filpcharts or anything like that - delegates wouldn't see them. Basically, a scree and a projector.
S: OK.. you say the place is big. Will people be able to hear the speakers easily?
H: There's a microphone, of course, for those who want it.
S: And what about a computer link into the projector?
H: Yes, we've got that, so just advise your speakers to bring a pen drive with their presentation on it.
S: OK - I'll note that down and make sure they do. They're all old hands on the conference circuit.
H: Good. Anything else?
S: Yes. Um, what about in the meeting rooms? What equipment have you got there?
H: All rooms have screens and data projectors, and we can supply good-quality sound equipment on request.
S: I'd better note that down for the information sheet - on request - just so people know.
H: That's right.
S: Just out of interest, several companies will be wanting to put up exhibition stands. Is there somewhere they can do that?
H: We've got a large reception area which is normally used for that.
S: Good. And what's the weather like in October? Pretty hot I suppose.
H: Quite warm if you are not used to it.
S: So, will people be able to get something to drink?
H: Oh, yes. We always offer free refreshments round the clock to delegates at conferences. It's part of the service.
S: Wonderful.
H: Anything else you'd like to know?
S: No, I think that's just about everything on my list. Thanks. You've been very helpful.
H: It's my pleasure.
S: Look forward to meeting you at the conference, then. Goodbye.
H: Me too. Goodbye and have a good day!
* at the moment : 지금, 현재
* I am calling to 동사 : 전화한 이유를 설명할 때 많이 쓰는 구문입니다. ~하기 위해 전화했습니다. 라는 뜻이죠.
* note something down : ~을 적어두다
* be old hands on : 먼저 hands on 은 실습 위주의, 실제로 손으로 사용해본다는 뜻이죠. 그런데 old hands 라고 했죠?
얼마나 많이 해봤길래 old hands 가 되었을까요? 즉 '~하는데 능숙하다' 라는 뜻입니다.
* just out of interest : 혹시나 해서 말인데, 그냥 궁금해서 말인데,
* free refreshments : 호텔이나, 세미나 중에서 주는 다과
* round the clock : 24시간 내내, 즉 항상 이란 뜻입니다.
