解决版本误会
Resolve a misunderstanding without blaming your colleague.
产品价格按时发出了，但 Nina 后来在旧文件看到不同的配送金额。你要一起查清差异，确认统一版本，而不是指责她没看邮件。
1 · 先听见真实对话
Nina: I thought delivery was included.
Orange: It is in the revised quote. Which version are you looking at?
Nina: The one you sent this morning.
Orange: Ah, that was the product prices only. I sent the full quote at four.
Nina: Right, I missed that. Could you send it again?
Orange: Of course. I’ll put “final quote” in the subject line so it’s easy to find.
Nina: Thanks. I’ll use that one for the client.
2 · 理解表达在这里做了什么
Which version are you looking at?
Find the source of a difference.
It is in the revised quote. Which version are you looking at?
“You’re looking at the wrong one” assumes the answer and can sound blaming. A question lets you check first. 先查对方在看哪份，不先断定是对方弄错。Ah, that was …
Connect the new information to an explanation.
Ah, that was the product prices only.
“Ah” can signal that you now understand the mix-up. The explanation matters more than using this exact word. Ah 表示现在明白误会在哪了，后面解释事实。so it’s easy to find
Explain a useful next step.
I’ll put “final quote” in the subject line so it’s easy to find.
This is a reason inside a practical reply. You do not need to turn every reason into a formal mini-presentation. 理由直接接在行动后，说明这个动作如何帮到对方。3 · 跟读后，换成自己的信息
It is in the revised quote. Which version are you looking at?
Ah, that was the product prices only. I sent the full quote at four.
Of course. I’ll put “final quote” in the subject line so it’s easy to find.
保留沟通意图，换掉人物、文件或时间。简单而准确的句子同样有效。

5 · 换一个情境，再试一次
A teammate thinks tomorrow’s meeting starts at nine. The first invitation said nine; the updated invitation says ten. You sent the update yesterday, but they may not have seen it.
Are we still meeting at nine tomorrow?
State the current time and check their invitation.
Yes. Mine says nine.
Explain the change without blaming them.
Could you send me the new one?
Send the update and confirm the agreed time.
- I checked which invitation my colleague was using.
- I explained the time change without blaming them.
- I confirmed ten tomorrow as the shared plan.

A colleague has a different deadline from yours. Ask a question that helps you find the source of the difference.
