 茶水间碰上同事,电梯间偶遇邻居……即便是陌生人,互相闲聊几句就能很好地化解尴尬。今天的节目就要和你分享一些small talk的技巧。


 


Small talk

Small talk是西方社交文化里很重要的部分。

Small talk: 寒暄,闲聊

在美国,最常见的寒暄场景是在电梯、公司茶水间这样的小空间里:

Elevator small talk: 电梯寒暄

Watercooler small talk: 茶水间寒暄

Watercooler是饮水机的意思,公司同事们在茶水间喝咖啡、休息时总免不了交谈几句。

关于“技巧”,英语中可以说

Trick: /trɪk/ 诀窍、技巧

Hack: /hæk/ 攻略、技巧

Hack原本有“侵入”的意思,例如hack computers(未经允许侵入电脑系统)。另一个意思是 “to manage to deal successfully with something”,尤其是指用一些巧妙的小方法。
