When there is a mistake at work, how do you fix the problem to make sure there are no mistakes again? What do you say to your colleagues? 


Vocabulary

The system user will tell me what functions they want to code into the system, I should evaluate what functions we have and then I can tell the vendors to make the necessary changes.

Three sentences: 

  1. first person = Once the system testing is finished, I let the vendor implement the function into the system. 
  2. Question to another person = Can you please implement the function into the system, since we have completed the testing phase? ( two rising tones OK for this long question)
  3. Third person= He came to our company for implementing the new retail system.

to let do = NOT = to make do (these are actually opposites!)

…to let somebody +to do = to authorize, to give permission to, to allow the function to happen,

ex.. Mom, Can I….? No, I cannot let you….
