1,000 pcs of PD128 were inspected yesterday and there is one point need your verification, as earphone jack is black and does not match the golden sample (silver colored). After checking our records, we found that the silver (metal) phone jack was changed to black (plastic) at the end of 2006. However, we did not update the golden sample, which remained as per the 2006 version, and caused the inspector confused

We apologize for the error and would like to send a new sample for your approval, signature and return to the factory as the inspection reference for the future. An updated ECN report will be sent to your Engineering Dept ASAP.

Meanwhile, could you please release the shipment, so that we can meet the vessel closing on May 29?

Waiting for your promptly reply.

Re: turn out right or turn out rightly

Use Google Books, it's more educated than plain Google:

http://books.google.com

10 of 64 on "turn out rightly"

794 on "turn out right" (much more frequent)

Both correct, but look at the dates of books here:

10 of 64 on "turn out rightly"

http://books.google.com/books?q=%22turn+out+rightly%22&lr=&sa=N&start=20

most of them are old, and you don't want to sound old-fashioned.

Re: abusive sexual contact

Pter — Fri, 16 May 2008 15:52:53 GMT

Violence, is well, violent. Abusive sexual contact may not necessarily be violent. Rape may or may not be violent. Another name for rape is non-consensual sex. The key is whether the party involved consent to the act. Raping someone using so called date rape drug often does not involve violence.

EDIT:

Abusive does not necessarily mean physical violence. Leaving a little child at home alone for a long time with no food is an abusive act. Using different means of coersion to force someone to have sex is abusive even though no violence is involved.

Hi again, Fizzi,

Can somebody please help me with the English?

Almost all studies noted that this information was (?) often available (more than 93.5%) in India in 1983, the UK, the US, and France. However, newspapers that were evaluated in Mexico and another Indian study which was also conducted in 1983 found much lower information, less than 70.8 and 66% respectively.

93.5% of what? 70.8% and 66% of what?

If you say a year for India, the sentence structure seems to suggest that you should also say a year for the UK/US/France.

What does lower information mean? Do you mean 'a lower rate? Lower availability?

When were the newspapers in Mexico evaluated? 1983? Or is that date just for the other Indian study?

Best wishes, Clive

.
I heard from Annie this morning. She said that the goods will be delayed because of the many problems that have developed (ie IB, IC, FCC) and that mass production is planned to start on June 10-11. Is this true? And do we need to request a shipment extension from the customer? The vessel closing date is every Friday. Please advise.

Re: kayak

My take. I've tried to go for a natural conversational British English style.Remember that there are usually many different ways of expressing the same thing. Also, contractions are much more natural for spoken language.

A: Let's go over there and see whether they rent kayaks.

B: It doesn't look like there's anybody in the booth. (I found 'guarding' particularly odd here). Maybe they're closed because of the rain over the last few days. It still looks pretty cloudy . I think it's going to rain again.

A: We'll see. I really want to go kayaking. We've already been here 4 days and are going home tomorrow. I don't want to miss this opportunity.

B: We should have paid more attention to the season when we picked the dates. It would have been a great holiday if the weather had been better.

A: Cheer up. Seize the moment.

<B sees a man lying in a hammock?

B: Excuse me, do you work for the kayak hire?/Do you hire the kayaks?/Are you the person to see about the kayaks?

B: How much is it?

Operator: $25 per hour, 3 hours minimum.

B: How about $100 for half a day?/Would you take $100 for a half day? (although your maths is a bit off. 4 hours = half day = $100 at the usual rate?)

Operator: Oh go on then. You guys are lucky I'm in a good mood today. The deal is you empty out the water and stack the kayak on the rack when you've finished. OK?

B: Sure will.

Operator: Also, don't cross the bouy line. Someone drowned the other day and some new rules ban anyone from crossing the line/don't allow anyone to cross the line. Don't get me in trouble.

A: Let's go over there and see whether they rent kayaks.

B: It seems like nobody is guarding the booth. Maybe they are closed today. (what conjuction word/phrase should I use here). It has been raining for the past 3 days and there still are rain clouds in the sky.

A: We'll see. I really want to go kayaking. We've been here for 4 days and are going home tomorrow. I don't want to miss this opportunity.

B: We should have paid more attention to the weather when we picked the dates. It would have been a great vacation.

A: Cheer up. Seize the moment. (Can I use this idiom?)

<B sees a man lying in a hammock?

B: Are you the kayak operator here? Do you call the person kayak operator?)

Operator: Yeah. How can I help you?

B: How much for a kayak?

Operator: $25 per hour, 3 hours minimum.

B: How about $100 for half a day?

Operator: You guys are lucky. I'm in a good mood today. The deal is you stack the kayak on the rack after use and empty out the water, OK?

B: Sure will.

Operator: Also, don't cross the bouy line. Someone drown the other day and the new rules do not allow anyone crossing the line. Don't get me into trouble.

1. Are there any mistakes?

2. I have some problem finding the right phrase/ expression/words as mentioned above. Please help.

Thanks in advance!

Would you please also request your US office to explain the sitatution to the customer to advise their forwarder to waive the late booking penalty for us, as this is a special case, but not a late booking. We did booked the LCL shipment ten days advance, however, we found that these three items can consolidate into one 40' container, which will help all party to save the shipping cost, then we suggest to you.
