Interrupting Politely

ការកាត់ការសន្ទនាដោយគួរសម

Sorry to jump in, but... សុំទោសដែលកាត់ការសន្ទនា ប៉ុន្តែ...

Could I just add something here? តើខ្ញុំអាចបន្ថែមបន្តិចបានទេ?

Buying Time

ទិញពេលវេលាដើម្បីគិត

That's a great question. នោះគឺជាសំណួរដ៏ល្អមួយ។

Let me think about that for a second. ទុកពេលឲ្យខ្ញុំគិតបន្តិចសិន។

warning The Rude Trap!

Interrupting Abruptly

(កុំនិយាយកាត់ដោយគំរោះគំរើយ។ កុំប្រើពាក្យ Stop talking ត្រូវប្រើ Hold that thought វិញ។)

"Stop talking, I want to say something!" cancel

Sounds very aggressive.

"Hold that thought. Can I add something?" check_circle

Polite and respectful.

Hi Sovan! "Shut up" is ONLY used as slang for surprise with very close friends (like saying "No way!"). It is NEVER polite to use it to actually stop someone from talking! Use "Hold that thought" instead. front_hand

Use body language! Raise your hand slightly, make eye contact, and speak a bit louder. Sometimes you have to be confident and clearly say, "Could I just jump in here for a second?" pan_tool

Yes! It shows you are thoughtful. It is much better than staying completely silent or saying "Ummmm" for a long time. Just don't take too long! timer
