Quandary
左右为难
Have you sent a message and said you were in a "quandary"? You should know that the word means you are in a total state of perplexity. I mean, you are really perplexed. That's not often the case when it comes to a new business proposal or fundraising round.
你是否在邮件中说过自己’左右为难’?你应该知道这个词意味着你在一种完全困惑的状态。我的意思你真的不知所措。但在一份新的商业提案或融资过程中通常不是这种情况。
Likely
貌似
Few of us are in the business of predicting the future. If you say something is "likely" in an email, you are expressing to the recipient that you are not really sure about the topic, and you don't have all the facts yet. It's likely that you just lack confidence.
几乎没有人从事预测未来的的工作。如果你在邮件中说一件事‘貌似’,你就是在向收件人表达你对这个话题并不确定。,而且你还没有掌握所有情况。你可能只是缺乏自信。
