Business English: Asking for Repetition and Confirmation

Asking To Repeat

• Would you mind repeating that for me again?
• Would you mind going over that one more time?
• Sorry, could I ask you to tell me X again?
• Could you clarify what you meant by X?
• Could you be more specific?

Confirming What You Heard

• Let me see if I understood correctly.
• If I understand you correctly, you are saying…
• So what you are saying is… Is that what you meant?
• I’d just like to confirm that I got that right.
• You mean…?

Telling You Understood

• Thanks for clarifying. I understand better now.
• Thank you for repeating that. It makes more sense to me.
• Thanks for explaining your point of view again. That helps me see where you’re coming from.
• Thanks. We seem to be on the same page now.
• I appreciate the clarification. Glad we agree on that.
