Polite ways to disagree

4:43

agreeing

4:43

but the but the butt word is very

4:46

important it means a lot to this but it

4:48

signals to the the listener your partner

4:51

that you're going to

4:53

say something different degrees so it's

4:55

nice to say i take your point that's

4:57

fine

4:58

but and then you disagree and the second

5:00

option you have is to say

5:02

that's not exactly how i see it that's

5:05

not exactly how i see it again that's

5:07

basically saying

5:08

i see it very differently it's a

5:10

diplomatic a soft way of disagreeing so

5:12

that's not exactly how i see it

5:14

another very nice and common polite way

5:17

to disagree

5:18

is to say i beg to differ i beg to

5:21

differ

5:22

so this is perhaps a little bit more

5:23

direct than the the last two

5:25

examples but it's still very polite

5:28

because you say i beg to differ

5:30

uh you're not risking any sort of

5:32

arguments

5:33

you're just giving your opinion i beg to

5:36

differ

5:36

the next option you have is a little bit

5:38

more emphatic

5:40

so you can say i totally disagree i

5:43

totally disagree

5:44

that's quite emphatic so you might want

5:46

to prefix that by saying

5:48

sorry but so sorry but i totally

5:50

disagree

5:51

so that takes the edge of it a little

5:53

bit it softens
