Telephoning in English
The importance of telephone communication in business
Telephone in English includes learning a number of special phrases, as well as focusing on listening skills. In American English, we answer the phone stating “This is …” in British English, it’s common to answer the phone by stating the telephone number. The phrase “this is …” is used only by stating the telephone to substitute the phrase “my name is …” which is not used to answer the telephone. Telephone communication may be slower than its new – media counterparts, but it still has benefits in an increasingly impersonal business component.
Pausing
When you say a seven digit number, separates the number the into two blocks of three and four, pausing after each block.
Each digit is spoken separately, unless it’s a double or triple. If the second part of the number was “5555”, you’ll probably find it easier to say ‘double five – doubly five’
