Conventional expressions are a large part of English
I am sure there is no need to tell you
As a challenge when learning and using it
This is because the meaning of the term terminology as a whole
Most often, it differs from the meaning
Her constituent words, both on my own.
But this is not a reason to “lose hope”
In this lesson, we will share some interesting terms
All related to “sailing”
Certainly, they are all terminology.
So not only because of the word “sailing”, “sailing”, “ship” or “boat”
Among them
This would mean that it has to do with water
When used.
All our phrases today are commonly used in everyday life
It has nothing to do with sailing or boating at all!
Actually,
Many of the terms I will share with you in today’s lesson
Used a lot when talking about work or with our colleagues,
Often in a professional context, or even
When talking normally about work.
So, let’s “dive in”!
Let’s start b
“on board” “to convince someone with you” or “to be in agreement with your opinion”
Usually, the term “on board” or “opinion approval” is used when you want
Travel on board a ship or plane.
When they are on the roof, on the deck
Or on board.
But the concept here is used to express that person
You agree with your idea, opinion or plan
In accomplishing a certain order.
That is to say to obtain approval or support for that thing.
(Example 🙂 It’s a great idea,
But you have Simon’s approval first
If you want to do it!
Often used in the context of work
But can be used informally
When you try to convince your friend to do something.
(Example:) We’re thinking of renting a car over the weekend
And heading to the sea, are you OK with the idea?
Ie are you with the implementation of this idea
Or would you like to share a different opinion?
“jump ship” “give up” or “lose hope of”
In traditional circumstances, this term is used on the boat
When the sea leaves its ship or leaves it without permission.
But this term is often used today
When someone leaves a difficult position
While in fact, it was worth staying and dealing with the situation.
Well, it can be used when someone abandons someone else,
Or a group of people
To let them deal with a problem on their own.
(Example: If I was offered the same job but with a higher salary,
Of course I will give up my current job!
I might leave my company now and work for another company
Pay me an increase in salary!
Of course I will not hesitate then 😉!
(Example 🙂 I think you should give up right away,
Before funding is stopped!
In this context, the speaker takes into account leaving the company
That works for it and start looking for another job.
(Example:) We must offer our employees competitive salaries
Otherwise they will lose hope and abandon us
And then work with our competitors!
“smooth sailing” “with ease” or “without any difficulty”
This term is used in the “adjective”
Say something easy, or hin.
(Example: some progress has been made,
Everything is going according to plan.
We encountered some problems at the beginning,
But the situation has become smooth without any difficulties
Since we brought the project manager!
(Example 🙂 Excellent work for everyone! But it is not yet without any difficulties,
We still have two trucks to unload before 9pm!
“that ship sailed” “Too late” or “Fat time”
This term is used when
A chance is missed
It is too late to take advantage of that opportunity.
Imagine that you have cards for a wonderful cruise,
Opportunity will not compensate for life
When you arrived at the departure port, you boarded the ship,
You watched the ship sail in the horizon and walked away.
I have missed the trip!
There is no chance of catching up with them
They boarded it now.
(Example 🙂 “It’s too late” and the ship sailed.
This context can be used or applied to any circumstance
Where she missed the opportunity and missed.
In many places,
The words “ship” and “has” are adjacent
Making the sentence look like “that ship sailed”
(Example:) It is disappointing,
But we have to accept it, it’s too late
And go to another order.
Since you have learned that your former intimate friend, I have now engaged,
It is safe to say that that opportunity missed you!
“a sinking ship”, “lost cause” or “hopeless case”
The situation does not look good, the ship “sink”!
You have to jump before you sink with it!
This term refers to a company or an organization
Fail in their work.
Their future never looks good, and their destruction is inevitable.
(Example:) When he left the administrative meeting,
I realize that he lives in a hopeless situation.
The company is in turmoil
It has many big problems
Which can affect the entire company.
So obviously it is a lost cause.
(Example 🙂 It seems that your business situation is hopeless,
If you were your place to start looking for a new job.
“run a tight ship” or “strictly and effectively”
This term is used
In describing the management method of a company
It is managed by one person strictly and accurately
But also in accordance with effective and meaningful rules.
The person who runs the “accurate and effective way”
Errors are not allowed to fall.
(Example 🙂 Our Head of Business manages the company with all rigor and accuracy, and expects everyone
Work hard and effortlessly.
(Example 🙂 Now that Sue has left,
It became clear that she was running the work firmly and masterfully.
The place is chaotic without it!
Last but not least,
“enough to sink a ship” or “much more than we need” or “surplus needs”
Can you imagine how much of the overload?
May cause the ship to sink?
very much!
So this term is used when you have excess
More than the amount you essentially need.
(Example:) When our family meets,
There is a surplus of food “enough to sink a ship”
That is, there is too much food, more than we may need.
Look at all these luggage … It ‘s enough to sink a ship!
Well then, who would have thought there were all these
Useful terms, all related to sailing 😉?
Now you want to tell me, do any of these terms exist?
Similar to the terms you use in your language?
Because there are often similarities
Which in turn can help you remember them.
