deliberation of customers
I think it means the slowness, the sluggishness of customers, or their circumspection in bying the product. AS he'll work in sales department his task will be to speed up the customers when they are too cautios, simply to convince them to make that step.
(I've mistaken puting this reply to another topic). |

WOW moniker, you exactly expressed what I intended to say but in a better English!
I mean, to sale something always requires the trader or salesclerk to force the customer?s or client?s insight for the necessarity to buy it or at least the desire to get the provided article. It?s rather obvious when you think about a car-trader. They often are that skilly in forcing the customer?s desire that it is very hard to stand it finally, isn?t it?

Sorry for having retarded the answer, Fan of Arabian horses (by the way, it's a bit uncomfortable to refer to you with this name, kind of long or...) and thanks for lauding my English. It's so shaky and really needs an encouragement. I am glad if I came close to your prospective job description. Instead of "necessarity" maybe it'd be better to use "necessity". I don't think "necessarity" exists in our language. I mean English. By now it's almost our language. We all are addicted to it. Good job to you! |

| Sorry, I didn't noticed your name in the closing. Michael is simpler and easier. Is it pronounced in English way like /maikl/ or in German or Franch? |

Hi moniker!(By the way, you also chose an unusual nickname)
Thanks for correcting my silly mistake necessarity=>necessity.
There isn?t anything to apologize. We all do have some other tasks and issues beside of talking at the site, so that we don?t can chat or write here the whole day long.
Regarding my name: your pronounciation in English is correct. In German you would pronounce it like you read it, whereas the "i" would sound like the English "e", the "a" like the "u" in us and the "e" like the English "a". I don?t know how familar you are with the German but as you asked I?d like to add that the German "ch" sounds more like the whisperring of a snake or the spitting of a cat. In France my name would be "Michel" for a man/boy. Whereas the "i" and the "e" would be pronounced like in German and the "ch" like in the English "kitchen".
Hope I didn?t exaggerate my explanations but till now I don?t have any information about your mother-language. Might be you introduced yourself at the new-member-forum. If so, I failed not looking there and it?s on me to apologize.

Hi
(Taking the opportunity to become acquainted ) can I ask, whether moniker / monicker is just a (perhaps, AmE?) slangy word for 'nickname'? _________________ It’s impossible to learn swimming without entering the water… |

Right you are, Tamara -- 'moniker/monicker' is slang for 'name' or 'nickname'.
It's also the way some British people would pronounce the noun Monica followed by a vowel sound, e.g. 'Monica is...':['monik9riz]. |

I was searching for my nickname for this forum and as I couldn't select any, I called myself just moniker which would be exactly a slang version for nickname. My real name is nice, but here I prefer to be called as Moniker. Introducing myself to the forum? I don't know what to say that might be interesting for you. If you permit I don't reveal my native language for some personal reasons. I see the people of my nationality through the forum and I've chosen to remain in the shade. It's much more engaging to speak with unknown persons for me. About myself I can say few words. I studied classical (dead) languages and speak fluently one Romance (live) language and I'm familiar with German, not proficient in speaking it though. I've worked as a researcher and as an interpreter. Now I have this passion for English. I wish my English were flowing as a liquid melody, but it's not that good yet. So it's my high hope and I don't give up it untill.... you know. |
