Take something offline 私下再談
今日短語
職場中，當上級在會議等場合中使用短語 “take something offline” 時，是在告訴某人 “不要再談論一件事情，會后私下再說”。這個短語經常與 “l(fā)et’s” 搭配，用來表示命令或請求，即 “Let’s take it offline.（讓我們私下里談這件事情）”。
例句
I understand that this is a really important issue for you, Sandra, but it’s not the focus of this meeting. Let’s take it offline and talk about it afterwards.
我知道這對你來說是一個非常重要的問題，珊德拉，但這并不是會議的重點。我們私底下再接著談。
