Using 2 Object Verbs Continued
2015/11/03
Let’s do some work on the 2-object verbs we learnt last week, beginning with non-invertible ones.
 
Task 1: Read through this email and then complete it with the phrases below.
 Dear Lulu,
 
 When you joined the company last month, I talked to you. I told you then. My contact window at Jonson & Ronson have just informed me. It seems you told her some confidential information regarding their main competitor, G&P. Apparently, you told G&P’s current strategy to J&R. I have talked about this case with Malcolm, and he agrees with me.
 
 I’m afraid we have no choice but to give you an official warning and to take you off J&R until this matter is resolved. I would be grateful if you could prepare a letter of explanation by the end of this week. Please could you also return all your J&R files before you leave the office at the end of today.
 
 Thanks.
 
  
about confidentiality of client records
about the seriousness of keeping things confidential
about the seriousness of this breach of trust
for us
of a conversation she had with you last week
to me

You may have found that email from last week rather strange! Indeed it is quite strange because some of the phrases I asked you to insert contain information which is quite important for a full understanding of the message. Without these phrases, the message is rather incomplete and difficult to understand. Do the next task to help you check your answers to this task.
 
Task 1: Read the complete email below and compare versions below with the version from last week. What differences can you notice between them?
 Dear Lulu,
 
 When you joined the company last month, I talked to you about confidentiality of client records. I told you then about the seriousness of keeping things confidential. My contact window at Jonson & Ronson have just informed me of a conversation she had with you last week. It seems you told her some confidential information regarding their main competitor, G&P. Apparently, you told G&P’s current strategy to J&R. I talked about this case with Malcolm, and he agrees with me about the seriousness of this breach of trust.

Please could you also return all your J&R files to me before you leave the office at the end of today.
 
 Thanks.
 
Task 1 Feedback:
I hope you can see that the second email contains more information which is essential for the message, making it much easier to understand the email. Notice how the added phrases from are used.
