如果在打电话或接听电话时,中途为了某事而不得不暂时中断与对方的通话,需请对方等候一下时,可以说:“Excuse me 或
Excuse me for a moment”(对不起,请稍等一下),再次拿起话筒时,自然要向对方道歉,应该说:“I am sorry to have kept you waiting so long ”(很抱歉让您久等了)。熟人之间也可以直接说:“Are you still there ”?(你还听着吗?)。
结束通话时,可以说:“Call me at any time”(随时打电话来),“Please say hello to everyone ”(请代我向大家问好),“Nice talking to you ”(很高兴与你通话)等等。电话中的告别一般用Good bye !或See you !
另外,电话号码在英语中的读法。一般按号码的顺序读数字的读音即可。数字0,即可读作Zero,连在一起的相同的数字还可读成double…。 如0771-5678900 读作zero double seven one five six seven eight nine zero zero 询问对方电话号码时,可以说 Could you tell me your telephone number ? What’s your number? Can you tell me his home number等。
