Hello everybody!

I have heard many times people speaking about business English. But basically what is Business English?

How is it different?

Thanks a lot.

Business English is based more on business terms, you will focus more on how to develop your business vocabulary more than general vocabulary, usually people who have their own business or students who tend to focus on business terms are the ones who take Business English.

Thanks, Linguanaut!

 

So, basically, business English is normal English (grammar, sentence construction etc... the same) just the vocabulary is filled with business-concerned terms?
