Courtesy call
骚扰电话,估计有手机的人都接到过吧?不是赠送保险,就是推销红酒。反正都挺惹人厌的。可是你知道吗?这种烦人的促销电话在英语里竟然叫courtesy call!简直是反讽到了极致啊。Courtesy call is a sugarcoated term used by telemarketers which really means sales call. This is one of the most deceitful and misleading phrases ever since there is nothing courteous about it。
Courtesy call(字面意思:礼节性电话)是被电话促销员巧妙伪装了的一个词,其实就指“促销电话”。这个词算是史上最具欺骗性和误导性的词了,因为“促销电话”本身没有一点礼节可言。
For example:
Hello. This is a courtesy call from Talk America which is inviting you to switch to our service。
