These adjectives are worth their weight in gold in professional life.
Stay tuned!
Let's take a sentence first.
For example, the meeting with this customer was so stressful.
I need a coffee now.
And here we look at the adjective stressful.
How can we express that on a high level?
For example, with the adjective nerve-wracking.
That was so nerve-wracking.
That means I lost so many nerves at this meeting.
My nerves are now blank.
So nerve-wracking.
You can also say, for example,
the first time in this company was really nerve-wracking.
That means the work-in phase was really very stressful.
Or the week was really nerve-wracking.
So many deadlines.
Means there was so much going on.
We had so many deadlines to meet.
That was very stressful.
Let's take another sentence.
The project took a very long time.
But the result was worth it.
How can you use a nice adjective
to replace this has taken a very long time?
For example, time-intensive.
Time-intensive is exactly what it means.
Something takes a very long time.
Something takes a lot of time.
So the project was very time-intensive,
but the result was worth it.
Or let's say that a colleague of yours says
that she's quitting and you ask,
why actually?
And she says, well,
if the job wasn't so time-intensive,
I wouldn't quit at all.
Not so time-intensive.
So the job wouldn't take up that much time.
If you didn't have to invest so much time in this job,
I wouldn't quit, of course.
Let's take another example situation
from the professional context.
For example, you say to a colleague,
that was very good of you
that you ordered all the material
at the beginning of the year.
Otherwise we couldn't keep up with your schedule.
That was very good of you.
That's a compliment,
but it doesn't sound very convincing.
You can, for example,
use the adjective foreseeing.
What does that mean?
You can always use that
if you think that someone
organized or planned something well
So very foreseeing.
So you can say,
that was very foreseeing of you.
So you planned that very well in advance.
You can also say to a colleague,
that was very foreseeing of you.
So Clara always plans very well in advance
and has already organized all the appointments
for next year.
That means she always plans in advance,
in advance,
always organizes everything in time.
And that's great.
And before we go any further,
I would like to announce
that our brand new
B2 professional language course
is already starting at the beginning of the year.
This course is completely digital,
takes three months
and is supervised by a teacher,
by a professional teacher
from my team.
So if you want to prepare
for the job search in Germany,
if you are moving to the B2 level,
but you want to delve
even more into professional vocabulary,
if you want to prepare
for the real communication
in everyday German,
then this course is perfect for you.
It has been created
in a very everyday
and practical way.
If you are interested
and don't want to miss anything,
then feel free to check out
the link in the video description.
Let's take a look at the sentence.
A wrong decision
can be really expensive
And at this point,
instead of expensive,
you can use the adjective
kostspielig.
This means
very expensive,
so expensive.
A wrong decision can be
expensive for the company.
Or let's say
that a company
is planning to buy new devices
and then
the manager says
the purchase of new devices
can be really expensive,
but in the long run
you will save a lot of time.
So of course
it can be very expensive,
but we know
that it is the right investment,
because we save a lot of time.
Let's take a look at this sentence.
The move to the new office
was very exhausting,
but now everything is done.
How can you
replace the adjective anstrengend?
So whenever
something costs you a lot of energy,
whether physically or emotionally,
when something is very tiring
or exhausting,
you can use the adjective
kräftezehrend.
So the move was
very exhausting,
but now everything is done.
Or another example from the professional context.
So the last few weeks were
very exhausting,
because we had to do so many overtime.
So the last few weeks
cost you and your colleagues
a lot of energy.
Let's take a look at this sentence.
So
please give me a concrete statement
so that we can plan everything.
How can you
replace konkret or richtig
in this context?
In any case,
with a very typical German adjective,
verbindlich.
Please give me a
verbindliche statement.
Verbindlich means
obligatory,
reliable. So something that you
can no longer take back, so to speak,
which applies to all pages.
So please give me
a verbindliche statement.
So a concrete,
fixed statement.
You can also say, for example,
In the contract, all services are
verbindlich festgelegt.
That means everything is fixed.
It now applies to all pages.
You can no longer change that
and it applies to everything.
So that's really a
very typical German adjective
when you, for example, also confirm something.
I confirm that
verbindlich. That means it can no longer
be changed.
That now applies.
Finally, let's take this sentence.
The conversation with the potential
customer was very successful.
Maybe this
results in a collaboration.
Successfully you can
replace this with the adjective
promising.
That means promising
you can always use when something
has good chances
of success in the future.
So always future-oriented.
For example, we can also say
the results of the
test phase are very
promising or sound very
promising. So we should
continue the project.
That means the results
are not bad, they are really
good. That means you should
continue the project
because it has good chances
of success in the future.
