In today’s 925 English lesson, we’re going to learn how to make arrangements in English.
Think of all the things that flow in and out of your company. It could be anything from office supplies to raw materials. How do these things get to where they need to be? Someone is making arrangements. And although lots of things are ordered online, there are still lots of arrangements made over the phone.
So how do we make arrangements? Well, it starts with a polite suggestion or request. In polite requests, we often use the words “would” and “could.” For example, you might say “I would like to arrange a delivery” or “we would like something shipped.” Of course, “I would” can be shortened to “I’d” and “we would” to “we’d.” To use “could,” you might say “could we schedule a delivery?”
