在求人办事的过程中，总会有一些使人们不便、不忍或者语境不允许直说的东西，采取委婉的方式答之，既不损人面子，又有效传递了信息。这个成语就是一个很好的例子。

There are many techniques you can use to persuade people, one of the most powerful is repetition.

Repetition is a fundamental aspect of persuasion. It's a technique that's been used for centuries by everyone from politicians to advertisers to convince people to take a certain action or believe a certain idea. And it works because repetition helps to reinforce your message and make it stick in people's minds.

One of the ways repetition can be used effectively in business is through the use of images. Images have a powerful impact on our brains, and they can help to reinforce your message in a way that words alone cannot. For example, if you're trying to sell a product, using images of happy customers using that product can help to convince others to buy it as well. Similarly, if you're trying to negotiate a deal, using images of successful partnerships or collaborations can help to persuade the other party to agree to your terms.

Repetition is also about using the same phrases and words repeatedly to drive your point home. This can be especially effective in business, where you often need to communicate complex ideas in a clear and concise manner. By using the same phrases and words repeatedly, you can help to ensure that your message is understood and remembered by your audience.

Of course, You also need to make sure that your message is credible and compelling. This means providing evidence to support your claims, and using persuasive language to make your argument as convincing as possible.

Another important aspect of persuasion in business is understanding your audience. Different people are persuaded by different things, so it's important to tailor your message to the needs and preferences of your audience. This might mean using different images, phrases, or arguments depending on who you're trying to persuade.

By using repetition, images, phrases, and other persuasive techniques, you can increase your chances of success in business and achieve your goals.

Christmas in Canada : Real English Conversations Podcast On Italki

Podcast by American English tutor Carl. Improve your spoken English and book a lesson with me: https://teach.italki.com/teacher/1947582
Welcome back to another episode of Streetwise English podcast. I'm your host, Carl. Today I want to talk to you about note taking and note taking apps. So in the course of learning a language or living your life in general, you have to take notes. Notes, help you organize your thoughts and help you remember things and help you learn things.

So note taking is very important. I like to use several apps to take notes. I've experimented with different apps over the years, but today I want to talk about my favorite apps for taking notes. I will list them in the order that I use them. So I use Google Keep most. Google Keep is part of the Google suite of apps, and the advantage of Google Keep is that I can take notes on my iPad and they will show up on my computer and also on my phone.

And all of these apps that I'm going to talk about allow you to write with a digital pen, which is important for me. Why? Because I like to write down my notes with handwriting. And when you're learning things like Chinese, you need to write the characters by hand instead of typing them. And any language actually that you're learning, it helps to handwrite the vocabulary or words, because then you're more likely to remember them.
I've read that somewhere. So Google Keep is a great option because it allows you to view your notes on multiple devices because it's saved online. And then also because you can add lines, paper and grids, and you can handwrite in Google Keep. And I use Google Keep every day. And you can also connect Google Keep to other things like Google Calendar and things like that.
