寫一堆驚嘆號,你的英文e-mail風格好「幼稚」

你寫的e-mail有沒有夾雜著很多驚嘆號、問號或表情符號?

  • I can't believe it!!!
  • It should have gone differently!!
  • Why did you do this?!
  • I’ll see you :-)))

這樣表達情緒得體嗎?網站Corporette有一名讀者寫信問編輯,怎麼在e-mail裡,既能表達自己語氣,又不顯得幼稚或娘娘腔呢?e-mail裡能用驚嘆號嗎?

讀者說,每次試著用驚嘆號傳達積極的語氣,只是想要強調自己的積極性,但卻又擔心會不會顯得幼稚。他還發現,還有男性在e-mail裡不太用驚嘆號……這篇文章反應熱烈,有115則評論。

其實,要表達積極的態度,並不一定要用重複的驚嘆號,或過於草率的表情符號,我們來看看幾個例子:

1、你想要告訴部屬他做的不錯
(X)Good job!!!
(O)Well done!
(O)Outstanding!
短句後加一個驚嘆號,是一個有力的收尾,不至過度誇張。

2、不得不向主管報告壞消息,驚嘆號會造成反效果,火上加油
(X)I am so sorry this happened!!!
(X)…but on the plus side no one lost a limb!!!
這種語氣在e-mail往來最令人難受。壞消息,經常需要解釋或緩和,最好是打電話或者直接到老闆辦公室說,寫成e-mail難保不會被重複轉發、誤解,還有被存檔日後拿出來被檢討的風險。

擔心別人誤解你的語氣,可以直接用說的。或者你得相信自己的修辭,寫這樣的句子,一個驚嘆號也沒有,還是有驚嘆的功能:Great news, team: we are done with the doc review.(好消息,同事們,檔案檢查大功告成。)
