    This is fascinating. I’m an American-born speaker who works for a very large international company. I try very hard to be sensitive when writing to colleagues in other countries, especially in non-Western offices. I use phrases like: “thank you for you kind email,” which I wouldn’t typically use with American colleagues. I also try to be more humble in my writing. I think it has worked well for me as I have noted non-Western correspondents will also use this humble tone. With Americans, I find it’s more acceptable to be direct and less honorific. Using a more formal tone with Americans is often interpreted as being pompous (or so I have been told, lol).

      Well, the impression I get is that she'd definitely benefit from seeing a shrink... like on a regular basis. She's broken. Now I don't know what happened to her, but this is not how a healthy individual behaves. There's something wrong. Don't you feel it?

      @@janlinhart7914 This is why i love her. She is not anormal. She is special, very sensitive, spiritual and smart. i can't read minds of course and i have no idea what she lived. With a sensitivity like this, you don't have to see big things to get hurt. Little things can be disappointing. Sometimes talking with a real friend can be more helping. But it's hard to make friends when you are both sensitive and intelligent. (i hope i could tell what i want to tell with my awful english)

  • @TRAConsultants
    @TRAConsultants 3 роки тому +1

    Thanks for this Jade and perhaps let us not forget that “assertive” does not necessarily mean dominant, dominant means dominant )) Assertive in some definition means confident but still active listening. In English culture, it is considered to be polite to ask these questions and often people who don't ask these questions are considered to be rude. I agree with the left-hand side of your board polite, considerate, conscientious, and “respectful” not deferential
    . If you go to an English house and don't ask for somebody's permission to use their loo they're going to consider you very impolite
    ))
    A very good friend of mine, who is a communication expert, made his first million by the time he was 22 (not everyone's success criteria ..I would add ) puts his success down to being very polite with people. I would perhaps change the “permission to breath” section into polite expressions. Let's not stop people using these polite expressions but understand that subservience with these expressions is just that …….subservience….?

    In America, or at least in the American South, children will call their parents, teachers, and other adults "Sir" for a man and "Ma'am" for a woman. They might say, "Yessir" or "Yesum." "Yesum" or "Yes'm" is a double contraction, short for "Yes ma'am." "Ma'am" is a contraction of "Madam." Americans never say "Madam" unless they are pretending to be British.

    I don't think you're quite right about the socks thing. To me, it seems that they are Dobby's favourite clothes because they symbolize his freedom. As you surely remember, one sock was given to Dobby by Harry Potter to free him from slavery, and I think Dobby is so grateful and remembers it so well that socks are actually the best clothes for him.

    I think you've misunderstood the context of the FREE HOUSE ELF. I think it suggests that the elf WORKS FOR FREE ie doesn't need a salary. The reason as to why I think this is what it means is because..a gift itself was the reason as to why Dobby was freed of enslavement from Lucius Malfoy which implies that money or a gift frees the elf from enslavement but they're free meaning they work for free which itself is another sign of submissiveness.. Hope I don't sound submissive :)
