I'm sure you've heard them in various business contexts in different places.

00:29
So let's look at an example.

ใใ‚Œใงใฏไพ‹ใ‚’่ฆ‹ใฆใฟใพใ—ใ‚‡ใ†ใ€‚
00:31
The way we're going to do this is by learning how to use qualifiers.

00:36
A qualifier is a word which softens the tone or softens the intensity of whatever we are

00:43
trying to say.

่จ€่‘‰ใงใ™ใ€‚
00:45
So let's suppose that you work for an airline and the flight is going to be delayed and

ใงใฏใ€่ˆช็ฉบไผš็คพใงๅƒใ„ใฆใ„ใฆใ€ใƒ•ใƒฉใ‚คใƒˆใŒ้…ใ‚Œใใ†ใงใ€
00:52
you have to announce this to 350 tired passengers or anxious passengers.

00:57
So naturally you're not going to say we have, ladies and gentlemen, we are going to have

ๅฝ“็„ถใฎใ“ใจใชใŒใ‚‰ใ€ใ”ๅˆ—ๅธญใฎ

a long delay, no, because if you say that it's going to get a very harsh reaction.

01:10
So you try to minimize the problem by saying, ladies and gentlemen, we have, we're sorry
13
70360

ใงใ™ใ‹ใ‚‰
01:16
to announce that we have a slight delay of your flight to London.

01:21
So usually they will say it's a slight delay even though it might be a longer delay but

they say a slight delay because they're trying to minimize the problem or minimize the difficulty.

Okay?

You can use this technique quite effectively in lots of different situations, personal

and professional.

ใ€‚
01:41
Let's look at another example.
20
101880
2760
ๅˆฅใฎไพ‹ใ‚’่ฆ‹ใฆใฟใพใ—ใ‚‡ใ†ใ€‚
01:44
Let's say that you have a problem.
21
104640
1940
ๅ•้กŒใŒใ‚ใ‚‹ใจใ—ใพใ—ใ‚‡ใ†ใ€‚
01:46
You could go to somebody and say we have a huge problem.

01:50
We have a gigantic problem.

2520
็งใŸใกใฏๅทจๅคงใชๅ•้กŒใ‚’ๆŠฑใˆใฆใ„ใพใ™ใ€‚
01:53
But if you do that, you're kind of exaggerating the extent or the degree of the problem.
24
113360
6520
ใ—ใ‹ใ—ใ€ใใ‚Œใ‚’่กŒใ†ใจใ€ๅ•้กŒใฎ็ฏ„ๅ›ฒใพใŸใฏ็จ‹ๅบฆใ‚’่ช‡ๅผตใ—ใฆใ„ใ‚‹ใ“ใจใซใชใ‚Šใพใ™ใ€‚
01:59
So usually instead of that, we might say we have a bit of a problem.
25
119880

ใใฎใŸใ‚ใ€้€šๅธธใฏใใฎไปฃใ‚ใ‚Šใซใ€ๅฐ‘ใ—ๅ•้กŒใŒใ‚ใ‚‹ใจ่จ€ใ†ใ‹ใ‚‚ใ—ใ‚Œใพใ›ใ‚“ใ€‚
02:05
Now in fact, it might be a really big problem but by minimizing it, you make it more possible
26
125680
7940
ๅฎŸ้š›ใ€ใใ‚Œใฏ้žๅธธใซๅคงใใชๅ•้กŒใ‹ใ‚‚ใ—ใ‚Œใพใ›ใ‚“ใŒใ€ใใ‚Œใ‚’ๆœ€ๅฐ้™ใซๆŠ‘ใˆใ‚‹ใ“ใจใงใ€
02:13
for people to feel psychologically that they can resolve this problem.

02:19
So it's also a psychological technique as well as a verbal technique.
