BEP 292 – Colocaciones en inglés para implementar un plan (1)
Bienvenido de nuevo a Business English Pod para la lección de hoy sobre Colocaciones inglesas related to implementing a plan.
En los negocios, good planning is important, whether you’re talking about a long-term strategy or a short-term project. But a plan itself means nothing without action. It’s not what you decide to do that matters, but what you actually do. And what you actually do with a plan is called “implementation.” Implementing a plan is all about deciding who will do what, and when they will do it.
En esta lección, we’ll listen in on a meeting about how to implement a marketing plan. Durante la discusión, you’ll hear lots of useful expressions that we call “collocations.” A collocation is a natural combination or group of words. Por ejemplo, I’ve already used the collocation “to implement a plan.” We don’t say “do a plan” or “activate a plan.” The natural expression is “to implement a plan.”
Native speakers use collocations like this automatically, and you can learn to use them as well. Mediante el estudio Colocaciones inglesas, mejorarás tu vocabulario y sonarás más fluido.
