In our Business English Breakdown weekly series, we look at business news from China, and either Brazil, the European Union, or Japan, on a rotating basis.
I hand select a news article and examine the news article for three (3) key phrases to pre-teach vocabulary that you may not know. So, when you read the article, you will better understand it!Brazil Business News Story
Headline: Vale to push legal fight on Brazil tax on foreign units
Vocabulary Excerpts:
..the world's largest iron ore producer recover up to 22.325 billion reais - That is to say, Vale wants to get back billions of reais.
...The settlement with the government - The company has an agreement with the government.
...company said it will not seek legal recourse - will not seek a legal resolution or answer...
Business English Class Notes:
Now you should be able to read the article and understand it better.
I encourage you to read busines news written for native
English speakers every day to boost your vocabulary.
Join me every Saturday for a different business headline, either from Brazil, the EU, or Japan.
Therefore, it is a rotating headline. The China Business article stays on Thursdays.
Thank you and Happy Business English Learning!
