English for Work

English is the lingua franca of international business. In order for you to trade on the international market or do business with foreigners, a working knowledge of business English, or sometimes abbreviated as BE, is necessary. Business English is not only used when trading with English speaking countries. When two countries are negotiating a deal but speak different native languages, they will often use English as a compromise.

Business English doesn't always have to do with trade between international companies. You may be moving to an English speaking country in order to start a new job or you may already live in a country such as the United States or the United Kingdom. Business English may be necessary in order to better communicated around the office or socializing at a pub after the end of the work day. Business is often done in informal settings like restaurants.
