INTEROFFICE MEMORANDUM
TO: [Name]
FROM: [ ]
DATE: [ ]
SUBJECT: [Discrimination]
[Your recent memo about progress on filling the open position in your department describes the top three candidates for the job. In building your case for one candidate, you state of another: “In my experience blacks don’t work as hard as white.”]
The comment is intolerable and violates anti-discrimination policy (see page 15) of our personnel handbook).
This citation will be placed in your personnel file. Another comment in the same vein will result in a suspension.
To ensure that [company] makes the best possible hire. Report to me by tomorrow precisely how you will compare the professional qualification of the top three candidates. In addition, please share with me their cover letters, resumes, and portfolios, as well as the notes made by the members of the interview team.

Korean Trap! / 한국인 실수 교정

Common mistakes Korean speakers make.
한국인이 자주 하는 실수를 알아봅시다.

❌ "This citation will be placed in your personnel file. And another comment will result in a suspension."
✅ "This citation will be placed in your personnel file. Another comment in the same vein will result in a suspension."

한국어에서는 문장을 연결할 때 '그리고'를 자주 사용하지만, 영어 공식 메모에서는 'And'로 문장을 시작하는 것을 피합니다. 특히 경고나 징계 관련 문서에서는 'in the same vein(같은 맥락의)', 'furthermore', 'in addition' 등 격식 있는 연결 표현을 사용해야 전문적인 어조를 유지할 수 있습니다. 비즈니스 문서에서는 구어체 연결어 대신 격식체 표현을 선택하세요.
