Conversation Practice
Guy: Jill, what's your take on this request for us to work Saturdays for a month?
Jill: Well, its because of that proposal the company wants to put in to the government, as far as I'm concerned it's a win win situation for us.
Guy: Really? Putting in a month of Saturdays is a good thing? How do you arrive at that conclusion?
Jill: Sure. if the company gets the contract, that'll be a big boost for it and that can only help improve the value of our stock options and possibly lead to raises and the like over the next year.
Guy: And if we fall short and dont get the contract, then we worked for weekends for nothing ?
Jill: Oh...Come on! We're getting overtime at double time pay, so worst case scenario we've got a good chunk of extra money in our paychecks at the end of the month.
Guy: I guess that's the right way to look at it.

Korean Trap! / 한국인 실수 교정

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

❌ "As far as I'm concerned, it's a win-win situation for both of us."
✅ "As far as I'm concerned, it's a win-win situation for us."

한국어에서 '서로에게 윈윈'이라고 할 때 '둘 다(both)'를 꼭 넣는 습관이 있습니다. 하지만 영어에서 'win-win'은 이미 양쪽 모두에게 이득이라는 뜻을 포함하고 있으므로 'both'를 추가하면 불필요한 반복(redundancy)이 됩니다. 간결하게 "a win-win situation for us"라고 하면 충분합니다.
