商务邮件写作指南：电邮能用叹号吗如何在邮件里传达语气的同时又不显得幼稚或娘娘腔呢？邮件里能用惊叹号吗？ How do you convey tone in email without seeming childish or girlish? Can you ever use exclamations in emails? 如何在邮件里传达语气的同时又不显得幼稚或娘娘腔呢？邮件里能用惊叹号吗？As we all know, tone is hard to convey properly via email. However, whenever I am inclined to use an !to convey a positive tone, I get the sense that it actually reads as childish or immature. I also never seem to notice men using !’s in emails, either…. I’d love to hear yours and others thoughts on this!我们都知道，通过邮件是很难传达语气的。然而，每当我试图利用一个惊叹号来传达积极的语气时，我却发现这读起来让我显得很幼稚。我也从未见过有男人在邮件里使用惊叹号……我很希望听到你们和其他人对此的想法！A lot has been written about overuse of exclamations in emails — with some people even suggesting that one exclamation mark per email is a good rule to follow. There’s even an app to help you check the tone of your email!

I think something like, “Outstanding!” is professional and encouraging without seeming juvenile.如果你想要告诉一位下属他/她干得不错：他们根本不在乎你有没有用惊叹号；他们总是很高兴得到表扬的。我觉得就像“真不错！”这样的语句就很职业而且很能激励人，还不会显得太幼稚。If you’re trying to sugarcoat a bad situation for a superior: Exclamation marks aren’t going to help you here — in fact, they’ll probably hurt you. You don’t want to be overly grave (“I am so sorry this happened!!!”), or overly breezy (“…but on the plus side no one lost a limb!!!”)… it’s a tough tone to strike in email. Which, honestly, is why I recommend picking up the phone or dropping by your boss’s office. Not only do you not have
