英語でなんて言う？「先約があるので行けません。」【#13 ビジネス英語】アポイント

今回は英語会議のお話。

今回のテーマは「先約があるので行けません。」です。英語でなんというか分かりますか？

I am afraid I will not be able to visit you as I have prior appointment.

inter-industry gathering　異業種交流会

I am writing to you regarding the launching of the joint project we spoke about the other day.

Wouldn’t it be better to meet and discuss this matter in person, rather than communicating via e-mail? 直接話しましょう

Could you fit me into your schedule sometime next week? 来週のご予定はいかがでしょうか？

I apologize for the extremely short notice, but could you see me this afternoon? 非常に急なのですが、午後にお目にかかれないでしょうか？

By all means, let’s meet up while you are in the area.　是非ご滞在中にお会いしましょう（全ての手段を使っても＝是非）

Unfortunately, I have another meeting planned for the time you propose.

Due to an equipment inspection, operations at the Kofu plant will be suspended on the day you wish to tour. 設備点検のため

branch out into~ ~に進出する

I hope that we may have another opportunity to meet at a later date. またの機会

I wish to confirm the arrangement for our meeting tomorrow. 明日の約束について確認させてください。

Am I correct in thinking that the planned meeting time is 10 a.m.?

Who should I ask to see tomorrow? 明日は誰をお尋ねすれば良いですか？

If anything comes up, please leave a message at my hotel.

I would like to alter the schedule we arranged.　スケジュールを変更したい

I am afraid I have come down with an illness. Would it be possible to move our appointment to next week?　体調を崩したため

それではまた次回！
