Improve your Business English Communication Skills
If you are interested in improving your knowledge of Business English, and especially if you are planning on doing the B2 Business Vantage exam by Cambridge, then you want to make sure that you develop a good Business English vocabulary.
There are various ways you can do this but one of the first things to do is get a copy of the B2 Vocabulary List PDF which you can use as a guide to see what vocabulary you are expected to know at this level.
How to Learn Vocabulary
You can develop your knowledge of business English vocabulary by:
- Reading business articles online
- Learning how to use the vocabulary correctly in different contexts; if you’re not sure – you can use a good online business English dictionary such as Cambridge Business English Dictionary to help you understand a word or phrase
- Practice using any new vocabulary you learn on a regular basis until it becomes part of your ‘everyday’ vocabulary
- Repeatedly reading, writing and speaking new vocabulary; it will soon become as familiar as the English vocabulary you already know
It is important to be able to use English vocabulary correctly. You may not lose any points in the test if you try to use vocabulary and get it ‘a little wrong’ but it’s better if you can become familiar with it and use it correctly.
Tips
There is a difference between simply understanding what a word or phrase means when you see it written or hear it spoken – and being able to produce it correctly yourself when you write or speak.
- Practise constructing sentences and phrases including any new vocabulary you learn so that you will be able to produce it yourself correctly.
- Use the B2 Business Vocabulary List as a study guide and focus on one section at a time to ensure you know how to use all the words before moving onto the next section.
- It’s almost impossible to learn a large quantity of words in a very short time so plan to extend your vocabulary over a few months – bit by bit.
- Frequent repetition is one of the keys to learning new vocabulary quickly so that it becomes a permanent feature of your English language. You can do this by using a vocabulary app for your smartphone or simply writing the vocabulary on pieces of card and the meaning on the other side.
- Test yourself whenever you have a few minutes of free time. You don’t have to sit and study vocabulary for hours. Do it while you are traveling to work, waiting for a bus/train or taking a coffee break.
- The B2 Business Vocabulary List is only a guide to the type of business related vocabulary you should know to be successful at this level. There are many more words and phrases you can still learn – especially if you work in a specific business sector such as Engineering, Marketing, Tourism, Finance or Logistics.
Make a plan to improve your vocabulary – and stick to it! Just like doing exercise, you need to be constant and have patience, but you will see the results in the end if you maintain your effort and stick to your plan.
