- La jeune femme paraît déterminée et semble nous lancer un défi. Elle a un regard très sérieux, elle ne sourit pas, alors qu’habituellement les femmes des affiches publicitaires de l’époque cherchent à séduire par leur sourire d’une blancheur éclatante, la bouche entre-ouverte suggérant qu’elles s’offrent d’une certaine façon, femme- objet, bien de consommation elles-mêmes. Mais l’heure est grave, et cette femme s’adresse à d’autres femmes. Les sourcils finement dessinés mais relevés renforcent ce regard et cette moue de défi.

It is expected that the reader will take….

    100 WAYS TO SAY IT IN BUSINESS ENGLISH FOREWORD This is an abridged version of my e-book, 250 Ways to Say It in Business English, which I started compiling when a student asked me for a list of “phrases to say” in different business situations.
