林肯说:
人人爱听恭维的话。
恭维别人,不是虚伪。
恭维别人,就是肯定对方的价值。
增强他的信心和勇气便于顺利交流,这是于人于己都有利的好习惯。
他是改良人际关系的催化剂。
学会了赞美别人,你看人的角度都发生了变化,再不会把别人看成豆腐渣了。
事实上,人人都是有你值得学习和肯定的地方的。
Westerncompliments,25,Englishcompliments,西方人有一种习惯,见面除谈天气以外,喜欢向对方说一些恭维话(compliment),表示赞美、敬意,或只是表示问候,或没话找话的搭讪。
恭维话的范围很广,从人的相貌、服装、首饰,到发型、健康状况,甚至会恭维你佩戴的一只手表、一只钢笔。
有人主张,听到恭维话后,只需简单地回答“Thankyou.”这固然不错,然而在实际生活中,恭维话往往有许多不同情况,因此,回应也不应千篇一律。
顺便说一下,恭维话必须恰到好处,不能过分,否则就变成挖苦了。
