Have you ever been in a situation where someone says something to you, but you didn't quite catch what they said? It happens to all of us at some point.
Instead of simply asking 'Could you please repeat that?' there are other polite ways to ask someone to clarify or repeat what they said. These alternatives can help you maintain good communication and avoid any potential misunderstandings.
- I'm sorry, I didn't catch that. Could you please say it again?
- Could you please repeat what you just said?
- I'm sorry, but I didn't hear what you said. Can you please repeat it?
- Could you please speak up? I didn't quite hear what you said.
- Apologies, but I didn't get that. Could you please repeat it?
- I'm sorry, I missed what you said. Could you please say it again?
- Pardon me, could you please repeat that?
- Excuse me, I didn't catch that. Can you please say it one more time?
- Would you mind restating what you just said? I didn't fully understand.
Here are a few examples to help you understand how to use these phrases:
Example 1:
Person A: 'I'm sorry, I didn't catch that. Could you please say it again?'
Person B: 'Of course, let me repeat what I just said.'
Example 2:
Person A: 'Could you please speak up? I didn't quite hear what you said.'
Person B: 'Certainly, I'll speak louder so you can hear.'
Remember, it's important to use these phrases in a polite and respectful manner to maintain good communication and promote understanding.
