FAQ
Questions
How do I say something at work in English when I only know it in my first language?
Type the idea in any mix of languages. “How Do I Say This at Work?” returns three English versions — Direct, Balanced, and Polite — so you can copy the one that fits the person and channel.
Which phrasing should I use with my manager vs a teammate?
Use Direct for peers and busy Slack threads, Balanced for most managers, and Polite for clients or sensitive topics. Same meaning, three levels of softness.
What if I’m afraid my English makes me sound unprofessional?
Short, clear workplace sentences usually beat long “fancy” English. Pick Balanced for everyday asks; save Polite for higher stakes. Read the line once out loud before you send or say it.
Do I need an account, and is what I type saved?
No account needed. Your text is not stored; it’s sent only to generate the three phrasings.
