10 C1-Vokabeln für den Beruf – Deutsch sprechen im Job

So today I've brought you 10 C1 vocabulary words related to work so you can be even more confident and precise You can communicate I'm curious if you already know these ten vocabulary words Some of them are probably new to you Before we start with the ten words here is a note: there is a membership There are still exercises for these words in the membership and there is a bonus episode where I talk about more things I will explain more about this topic You can find all of this on my website Visit expertlygerman com and try the membership for just one euro for an entire month Okay so now we'really starting with the 10 C1 vocabulary words for the profession The first word is Explain You could of course also use "explain " but I would say "elaborate" is a bit more precise More detailed than explaining Especially when there are any technical matters if something is somehow more complex then you can also gladly Explain for example you could say could you please explain the technical details of the software to the team Could you please explain the technical details of the software to the team that is explain the software a bit more Go into detail so that the people so that my team really understands how the software works works Another example could be during the meeting the reasons for the budget cuts were discussed explained in detail The reasons for the budget cuts were discussed in the meeting elaborated You probably know the term budget cuts so if there is less budget tha for example in the previous year or the previous quarter Also we note that you can naturally say "explain" instead of Explain Explain is then still a matter a bit more detailed Explain Especially at work in the office so in business German economic German or in the Scientific language is explained and it is gladly used The second word I have is guarantee Guarantee Ensuring is similar to making sure or guaranteeing but even stronger When you ensure something ensures that it really works that it really meets the quality requirements for example corresponds For example we must ensure that our customers' data is Encrypted We must ensure that our customers' data is encrypted The word "encryption" comes from the word "key " and means something like to encrypt Then the data is encrypted And that is what the company wants to ensure That is what the company wants Guarantee that the data is always encrypted A second example is only through Regular maintenance ensures the functionality of the machines Ensure Once again only through regular maintenance can we ensure the functionality of the machines Maintenance means something like it doesn't come from the word "wait " so you shouldn't wait until the machines break down but maintenance means regularly checking the machines and Do something with the machines fix them or maybe oil them again or whatever you need to do with the machine Doing this regularly maintaining this machine regularly And only if it is therefore regularly Wait and then the machine will work And that can then be guaranteed That can the ensures Another word I have for you is Vote or more commonly coordinate You rarely work alone and must then coordinate with others Coordinate with colleagues Then one can use for example a vote For example before we send the offer I need to briefly coordinate with the management Before we send the offer You still need to speak with the management of your company where you work and see if you can accept the offer like this Whether you can send it or if you need to adjust it somehow And the offer could refer to an offer you send to a customer a potential customer for whom you provide a service you want to achieve A second example could be we need to coordinate our appointments better Avoid overlaps Again we need to coordinate our schedules better to avoid overlaps The word "overlap" means when things overlap for example appointments that overlap If two appointments are scheduled at the same time that's not good Then the team should better coordinate internally Coordinate in other words align And another word I have for you is smooth Smoothly Friction is when two things rub against each other And heat is then generated for example But if there is It works smoothly when it works smoothly then there is no friction It runs like clockwork One could then say An example is the introduction of the new system It went absolutely smoothly The introduction of the new system or new software whatever it was went absolutely smoothly Could you for example say when you're in a meeting and the boss asks "Has the new software worked " Can everyone use the software Is the software compatible with our other systems and so on And then you could say The software introduction went absolutely smoothly and it is now working without any problems So everything is It works everything runs smoothly there is no friction Another example could be we hope for a smooth transition after the department change We hope for a smooth transition After the department change The word "transition" could mean something like adjustment or change here Maybe we are talking about a task that First one department took over and now another department is handling this task It is now their responsibility And we just hope it works smoothly that the transition of this shif It works without any problems Another word that comes to mind is timely It is also often used at work or in a business context Timely means something like soon but might sound a bit like imminent Professional For example you could say or write "Please send me the signed documents as soon as possible " Please send me the Please ensure the documents are sent to me as soon as possible Also you could say "ASAP " but the more polite somewhat more formal version would be The more professional version would be Or maybe a potential customer would complain to you or the company and then you could respond we are working on a timely solution to the problem We are working on a timely solution to the problem We will take care of it immediately or as soon as possible "Timely" basically means soon Also maybe not necessarily right away but more like we won 't wait incredibly long before we do it but we will do it As soon as possible we will take care of it as soon as possible An absolute classic of politeness one could almost say is to be patient Be patient Instead of saying "please wait a moment " you could say "please be patient " For example please wait a moment the colleague is coming right away Please wait a moment Also you could say that for example in a scenario where you have a business meeting with a company with a person at a company and you You go to the reception and the receptionist the person who is talking to you could then say please wait a moment The colleague is coming right away and will then speak with them Another example would be we unfortunately have to wait a bit longer because bla because We have to wait a bit because the results of the analysis are not yet available We have to be patient for a while So now let's take a short interactive break After that we'll continue with the episode I have a little quiz for you a mini-quiz and I will tell you a sentence a normal sentence from what could be called everyday language and you must the sentence Upgrade with the words we just learned Okay here is the first sentence I will now show them the plan Explain I will now explain the plan to you How could you upgrade the sentence Right I will now explain the plan to you And then I have a second sentence We must ensure the quality is correct We must ensure the quality is correct How would you rephrase the sentence or maybe even upgrade it Right ensure We must ensure that the quality is correct We must ensure the quality is correct And the third quiz question I will let you know soon I'll let you know soon How could you upgrade this sentence This sentence sounds better here I will give you a prompt response I will give you a prompt response It sounds a bit better than when I tell them soon And have you managed to upgrade all the sentences correctly We'll continue with the next episode The next word I have for you is question Question Questioning is very helpful for critical thinking People don't just accept things simply because they are but they think yes why is it like that Why does the other person do it that way Or why does it work that way and not another So one questions it One tries to look behind it One does not simply take what is in front of them but looks behind and examines it Where it comes from and how it actually works in essence And an example from the working age could then be that we need to re-examine our marketing strategy critically We really need to critically review our marketing strategy We have incredibly high expenses for our marketing department for the marketing we do But it somehow isn't working the way it should Also our return on investment is not at all what we had in mind And that is why we need to take a closer look at what we are doing Re-evaluate our marketing strategy from scratch once more Or another example It is important to question existing structures within the company It is important to question existing structures within the company So if there is any system any process or any way something works And often one almost becomes blind when doing this work for many years And when a new person comes into the company and looks at how it is done en this person often realizes yes why do we do it this way and not that way And sometimes the new person then finds a better way to carry out a certain work process Then one could say that we must also regularly question the structures we have in the company Another word or rather a phrase is "to consider something " To consider something This means something like when you're thinking about an option but haven't decided yet Also instead of saying I'm thinking about it you could say I'm considering it Also for example if you are a department head or maybe even a manager in your company And someone makes you an offer and you're not sure whether to say yes or no and so on Then you say instead of me thinking about it you could say yes I'm considering it I will consider that I'll look into it to see if this suggestion is a good one or not I can't say that right now because I don't have enough information about this matter and then you might say to consider something Also I will take that into consideration Another example could be that due to the high costs we must consider closing the location Due to the high costs we must consider closing the location We are considering it thinking about it but we have not decided yet also because the expenses the costs for production or whatever are too high We are considering closing the location The term location means something like a branch or the place where something is made the place where something is done the place where work is done where something is produced This location might be closed because the costs are so high but maybe we can still find a solution But we must at least consider closing the location Make a decision This is similar to making a decision What is the difference between making a decision and reaching a resolution We would say a decision is made when the decision-making process is a bit more intense You have to think longer you have to maybe overcome yourself and then you make a decision For example you could say after long negotiations the management has finally made a decision After long negotiations the management has finally made a decision It has finally decided That negotiation was not easy at all But in the end there is a result and the management has made a decision Or another example I have decided to reorient my career I want to do something different professionally And then this decision-making process wasn't that easy But in the end you made the decision So and now word number 10 or noun-verb combination Available Also polite especially in the office routine If someone has any questions you are happy to be there and help For example you could say it in a conversation with a customer or write it in an email I am happy to assist you with any further questions Also I am available I am here You can call me anytime send me an email and I will answer your questions Another slightly different meaning is naturally also when something is available or not available For example financial resources for any project Unfortunately we currently have no financial resources available for this project Also to put it plainly we don't have the money to do that But of course you can also say it a bit more formally For everyday office use you could say it like in the example sentence So and now I have a quiz for the conclusion I will read you a sentence and in this sentence there is a gap And you have to fill in the gap with the correct word Of course from a word we just learned Sentence number one The boss is currently on a call Please look for a moment The boss is currently on a call Please wait a moment What word are we looking for here Right please wait Please wait a moment So please wait a moment And sentence number two I'm currently thinking about taking a sabbatical year I'm seriously considering it Right I'm currently thinking about whether I should take another sabbatical or sabbatical year I'm really thinking about it I'm seriously considering it And question number three We cannot just continue like this We really need to critically review our strategy It seems to not be working in your company somehow There is or in some department That somehow needs to be reconsidered So we can't just keep going like this We must critically examine our strategy We need to critically question our strategy Exactly right We really need to think again about whether our strategy works We also know that the strategy isn't working We need to think carefully again about how we approach our strategy They can change or simply develop a completely new strategy These were the three questions at the end I hope you answered all the questions correctly Thank you very much Check out my membership Test your membership for one euro for an entire month Otherwise see you again in the next video Thank you very much
