Understanding Business English isn’t just about knowing vocabulary — it’s about recognising what people really mean when they soften, sugar-coat, or politely phrase their message. In international workplaces, phrases like “Let me think about it,” “Interesting idea,” or “We’ll revisit this later” rarely mean what they seem. Today’s lesson shows you how to decode these hidden meanings so you can respond confidently, avoid misunderstandings, and communicate like a true professional.Using collocations, phrasal verbs, idioms, and natural expressions doesn’t just expand your vocabulary — it builds your self-confidence. When you understand indirect language, you can navigate meetings, feedback, negotiations, and team communication with ease. Higher English helps you develop this real-world fluency so you sound clearer, smarter, and more prepared at work.👉 Subscribe for weekly Business English lessons and visit www.higherenglish.org for courses and resources.
