Know These Phone Languages by superior494(m): 12:00am On Jul 11, 2017 |
PHONE LANGUAGE ..Do not say: I saw your missed call ...Say: I missed your call ...Do not say: Your voice is cracking ...Say: The line is breaking ...Do not say: Flash me ...Say: Give me a drop-call, beep me or give me a beep ...Do not say: I am hearing you ...Say: I can hear you ...Do not say: Come again ...Say: I can't hear you Etymologically, the word TELEPHONE comes from LATIN and GREEK. TELE in LATIN means 'DISTANCE' and PHONE in GREEK means 'SOUND'. So the compound word becomes 'DISTANCE SOUND' TELEPHONE. Now you know better!!!
