Today's episode is another free sample from the Business English Course. You'll learn 12 common business idioms by figuring them out from the context. One question you might be asking is, "Can we use idioms in business English?" The answer is "sometimes." In more official situations (such as writing a business report or formal letter), we avoid idioms. However, it is OK to use idioms in e-mails among co-workers as well as in conversations at work. Take today's lesson to learn expressions such as:

  • in the loop
  • call the shots
  • way off the mark
  • bring someone up to speed ...and more!
