Lisa: Oof, we all need a coffee sponsor at this point. Anyway—can you all see my screen?
噢天啊，我們真的需要咖啡品牌來贊助了。總之——大家有看到我分享的畫面嗎？
Ben: Yeah, but your audio is lagging a bit. Maybe turn off your video?
有，不過你的聲音有點延遲，可能要把鏡頭關掉？
Lisa: Got it, let me switch… Better now?

好很多了！
Lisa: Cool. So first up, let’s look at the engagement numbers from last week’s Instagram reel.

當然，麻煩有人聯絡 Chloe，問她下午有沒有空？

Lisa: Perfect. Then let’s wrap this up in five so we can all check emails before the next one.
太好了，那我們五分鐘內結束，讓大家可以在下一場會議前先回一下 email。
J: Okay, let’s unpack some of what they just said. There’s some really good vocabulary in there for, you know, typical office chat.
J: 好，我們來解析剛剛的對話內容，那裡有很多典型辦公室對話中很實用的詞彙。
M: James mentioned his espresso machine, which is just, well, a fancy coffee maker for strong Italian-style coffee, pretty common kitchen gadget.
M: James提到他的義式咖啡機，那其實就是一種比較高級的義式咖啡機，用來煮濃縮咖啡，是常見的廚房家電。
J: Right. And then Ben said Lisa’s audio was lagging. That’s a key one for online meetings.
J: 沒錯。接著 Ben 說 Lisa 的音訊在延遲。這是線上會議中常見的重要詞。
M: Lag or lagging. It means there’s a delay, it’s slow, or maybe it sounds kind of choppy. You hear it a lot with video calls or online games like “your connection is lagging.”
M: 「Lag」或「lagging」表示有延遲、緩慢，或聲音斷斷續續。你在視訊通話或線上遊戲時常會聽到「your connection is lagging（你的連線正在延遲）」。
J: Then Lisa shifted to business, talking about engagement numbers. What exactly is that in this context?
J: 然後 Lisa 轉到業務話題，談「engagement numbers（互動數據）」。在這個情境下它到底指什麼？
M: So, engagement here is about how people are interacting with their content online. Think likes, comments, shares, saves, basically how involved the audience is. It’s a big deal in marketing.
M: 這裡的「engagement」指網民與內容的互動程度，包括按讚、留言、分享、收藏等，基本上就是觀眾的參與度。在行銷領域非常重要。
J: Got it. And because the dog video did well, Lisa suggests they repurpose that style.
J: 明白了。因為那支狗狗影片表現很好，所以 Lisa 建議把那個風格「repurpose（重製）」一下。
M: Yeah, repurpose, that just means taking something you already have, like a successful video style, and adapting it or using it for something else. Here, they want to use that style for a new launch, maybe even on a different platform like TikTok.
M: 沒錯。「Repurpose」就是將已經成功的元素，像是那種影片風格，做些調整再用到別的地方。這裡他們想用在新活動，或是換到另一個平台，如 TikTok。
J: And Ben mentioned needing updated assets from the design team. What are assets?
J: 然後 Ben 說要設計團隊提供更新後的「assets（素材）」。這裡素材指什麼？
M: Good one. Assets in this world usually means the visual stuff, like images, graphics, videos, logos, the creative resources you need for marketing or design projects.
M: 好問題。在這裡「assets」通常指視覺素材──圖片、圖像、影片、標誌等等，是行銷或設計所需的創意資源。
J: Okay, that clarifies those nouns and verbs. What about some of the shorter phrases they used? Like, uh, just a heads up.
J: 好，釐清了那些名詞和動詞。他們還用了哪些短片語？像是「just a heads up」。
M: Ah, yeah, “just a heads up” is super useful. It’s like saying, “just wanted to let you know quickly,” or “giving a brief warning or piece of information beforehand.” Very natural.
M: 喔，「just a heads up」非常實用，就像在說「快速提醒一下」或「事先給個簡短通知」，聽起來很自然。
J: And “going viral?”
J: 那「going viral（爆紅）」呢？
M: It means it’s spreading really fast online, getting super popular very quickly, like that dog costume video.
M: 指在網路上快速傳播、迅速走紅，就像那支狗狗裝影片一樣。
J: Then there was “loop in the design team.”
J: 接著是「loop in the design team（把設計團隊納入對話）」。
M: Right. To “loop someone in” means to include them in the communication or the project, just making sure they’re aware and involved.
M: 沒錯，「loop someone in」指把某人納入對話或專案，確保他們得知並參與。
J: And Anna said she’d “ping Chloe on Slack.”
J: 然後 Anna 說她會「ping Chloe on Slack（在 Slack ping Chloe）」。
M: “Ping” is just a casual way to say “send a quick message,” usually on a chat platform like Slack or Teams. Like, “I’ll ping you later.”
M: 「Ping」是非正式用法，指「傳快速訊息」，通常在 Slack 或 Teams 上。像「我待會 ping 你」。
J: Cool. And finally, Lisa said, “let’s wrap this up.”
J: 很好。最後 Lisa 說「let’s wrap this up（我們結束吧）」。
M: Yeah, “wrap up” just means to finish something, to conclude the meeting or the task.
M: 沒錯，「wrap up」就是結束、收尾。
J: Well, these are phrases you’ll genuinely hear and probably use in English-speaking workplaces. Using them can really help you sound more, um, natural and confident.
J: 這些片語在英語職場中確實常見，也很可能會用到。使用它們能幫助你聽起來更自然、更有自信。
M: They’re part of the everyday flow of office communication, especially in online settings. Getting comfortable with them makes a difference.
M: 它們是辦公室日常溝通的一部分，尤其是線上環境。熟悉之後效果顯著。

J: 好啦，今天的 MJ English 就到這裡。希望這段團隊會議示範對你有幫助。
M: Yeah, keep listening, keep practicing. Even small bits of practice add up. Catch you next time.
M: 沒錯，持續聆聽，持續練習。即使是零散練習也會累積成效。下次見。
J: Bye, everyone.
J: 再見，各位。
