Business English Practice Tool — illustrative example INPUT Learner needs to ask a colleague for a revised delivery date without sounding accusatory. RESULT Practice: Could you share an updated delivery date for the report? We need it to plan the review. Ask the learner to adapt the request for a more formal or more familiar relationship. REVIEW Business English practice should match a real workplace exchange. Focus feedback on clarity, politeness and the intended action, and avoid assuming one communication style suits every organization. This is a teaching example, not a live execution record.
