Today's WordMaster makes great drama. Think of William Wallace in “Braveheart” and Aragorn in “The Lord of the Rings”, swords raised, urging their armies on to victory, and you'll get the idea!
PEP TALK 激励、激励演説
- A pep talk is a short speech you give in order to motivate someone.
- pep talk は、聞き手にやる気や活気を与えるためにする短いスピーチのことです。
- (office manager)
The staff have become a little complacent recently. I think it's time I gave them a pep talk. - After an inspirational 10-minute pep talk, the coach led his team in a cheer. Then they ran onto the field to play for - and win - the national championship.
- SECRETARY: Mr. Sims wants everyone to meet him in the conference room at 4:00.
EMPLOYEE: Oh, no! I hope he's not going to give us another one of those boring pep talks.
May you and your colleagues find glory on the corporate battlefield!
