English is the language of international business. Many people learn English so they can have more success in business. Sometimes, business English is hard to understand. Why? Because it’s full of “lingo”. What’s “lingo”? Here’s an example. People in business sometimes say this:“He’s a fat cat.” Are they talking about a cat that needs more exercise? No! They mean,“He’s rich.” That’s business lingo. Other examples? “Don’t be a yes-man” means “Don’t always say ‘yes’ without thinking”.“I’ve made it” means “I have succeeded in business”. Can you think of some other examples?
