「句」細靡遺
★Follow me 跟我來
△有時候就算您說得口沫橫飛,顧客還是搞不懂商品到底在哪裡,這時不如採取實際行動,直接帶顧客到商品所在地。以下介紹帶路時請顧客跟著您的其他說法:
*This way, please.= Right this way,
please. 這邊請。
*If you'd follow me. 請跟我來。
*I’ll show you the way(there).= I’ll take you there. 我帶您過去。
例:Customer:Excuse me, can you tell me where I can find computers?
(顧客:不好意思,你可以告訴我電腦擺在哪裡嗎?)
Clerk:This way, please.(店員:這邊請。)
﹡follow vt. 跟隨;效法
﹡follow(in)+所有格+footsteps
追隨某人的腳步,以某人為榜樣

★downstairs adv. 在樓下
例:Mary is taking a nap upstairs.(瑪麗正在樓上睡午覺。)
