When we are giving lots of information, we often use visuals to give an overview. However, we often need to highlight only one or two key points or figures and then comment on them. Here's some language to help you.

Asking for clarification
When we are talking to somebody, we don’t always understand everything they say.
There are two useful techniques for dealing with this.
Firstly, we can simply ask them to repeat what they said.
Could you say that again please?
I didn’t follow that. Could you repeat it?
Secondly, we can ask them to say again a specific piece of information.
What time did you say?
Where exactly are we to meet?

Asking for Clarification(2)
Sometimes you can only ask questions at the end of a presentation. In that case, you need to refer back to the point in the talk you need clarification on. Here are some useful expressions to help you do that:
First focus on the point you want to discuss
You talked about
You talked about the problems with the Glasgow office.
You told us about
You told us about the success of the new Singapore plant.
You dealt with
You dealt with the difficulties with the new system quite quickly.
You described
You described the reaction of the workers to the changes as 'broadly positive'.
You commented on
You commented on the problems with the euro.
You referred to
You referred to the poor economic outlook.
You mentioned
You mentioned the drop in sales in Europe.
Then ask for clarification
Could you tell us
Could you tell us why you did that?
Could you tell us if you think that was the right thing to do?
Could you explain
Could you explain why you said that?
Could you explain the thinking behind that?
These set phrases can be very useful
Could you be a bit more specific?
Could you give us more details?
Could you elaborate on that?
Exercise 1. Match the parts to complete the sentences.

Dealing with questions
At the end of your talk, you may get questions. You don't have to answer all the questions - they may not be good questions!
If it is a good question, thank the person and answer it.
Some of the questions may be irrelevant and not connected to what you want to say. Say so and get another question.
Some may be unnecessary because you have already given the answer. Repeat the answer briefly and get the next question.
And some may be difficult because you don't have the information. Again, say so and offer to find the information or ask the person asking the question what they think.
When you get a question, comment on it first. This will give you time to think.
Exercise 1. Categorize the responses to the type of question.
Good Unnecessary Irrelevant Difficult
I am sorry but I don’t have this information to hand.
Can I get back to you about that?
A good question.
I'm not in a position to comment on that.
I think I answered that when I said …
I don't see the connection.
As I said earlier, …
I'm glad you've asked that question.
That's a very interesting question.

Rhetorical questions
Presentations are more interesting if you use a conversational style. They are more lively and you establish a rapport between you and your audience. You can do this by using a question and answer technique – you ask a question and then answer it. Your questions create anticipation and guide your audience to your point of view.
For example:
Late delivery is a big problem. What is the best solution? There are two possible solutions. First …
Here are some exercises to help you practice this technique
Exercise 1. Match the parts to complete the sentences.
It’s a complex question what is the best solution
I’ve given you the three possible So, what results have we had?
scenarios So, how much do we need to invest?
Late delivery is the most serious So, what action do we take now?
problem we are facing So, how long will it take to sort out?
New production capacity will So, which would I recommend?
cost money
That is the total budget to date How did we do this?
That resumes the challenges
facing us Why we get profits?
The new organization is six months
old. What do these figures mean?
Turnover increased substantially
in the last financial year.
We have cut our production
costs dramatically
Exercise 2. Complete the questions.
1) New production capacity will cost money. So, ……………… do we need to invest?
2) Late delivery is the biggest problem we are facing. ……………… is the best solution?
3) I’ve given you three possible scenarios. So, ……………… would I recommend?
4) Turnover increased substantially in the last financial year. ………… didn’t profits?
5) It is a complex legal situation. So, …………….. will it take to sort out?
6) That is the total budget to date. ……………... do these figures mean?
7) We have cut our production costs dramatically. …………….. did we do this?
8) That resumes the challenges facing us. So, …………………. do we take now?
9) The new organization is six months old. So, ……………… have we had?
What, which, why, how, what results, how much, what, how long, what action.
Exercise 3. Match the question with the reply.
It is a complex legal situation. So, how long will it take to sort out? | The first thing we need to do is … |
I’ve given you three possible scenarios. So, which would I recommend? | There are two solutions. First … |
Late delivery is a big problem. What is the best solution? | I think the first scenario is … |
New production capacity will cost money. So, how much do we need to invest? | They mean we are still on target. |
That is the total budget to date. What do these figures mean? | They mean we are still on target. Possibly years. |
That resumes the challenges facing us. So, what action do we take now? | We did three things. First … |
The new organization is six months old. So, what results have we had? | It is still early days but … |
Turnover increased substantially in the last financial year. Why didn’t profits? | Twenty – five million. |
We have cut our production costs dramatically. How did we do this? | The first reason is … |
Focusing attention
When we really want to focus the attention of our audience on an important point, we can use this "What ……. is …."
Look at these examples:
We must cut costs.
What we must do is cut costs.
We need more reliable suppliers.
What we need is more reliable suppliers.
Exercise 1. Match the sentences with their paraphrased equivalents.
I want to talk about next year What I want to move to
now is the results of the survey.
We need to consider our options What we have done is
ask for more time
I have tried to look at it from a
different angle What we are going to do
is recall all the products.
I want to look at the forecast for the
next quarter What we did was look at
alternative suppliers.
I want to move onto the results of
the survey What I want to look at
is the forecast for the next year.
We looked at alternative suppliers. What we will do is review the
situation next month.
We have asked for more time What we need to do is consider
our options.
We will review the situation next What I want to talk about is next
month year.
We are going to recall all the
products What I have tried to do is to look
at it from different angle.
Exercise 2. Paraphrase the sentences using emphatic What.
1. I’ve tried to cut costs in this area.
2. I want to talk about recruitment.
3. I am going to give you a brief overview of the changes.
4. We are aiming to double production over the next six months.
5. We have made several important changes.
6. We need to invest in new equipment.
7. We should consider the impacts of cash flow.
8. We will implement the new policy as from July,1.
Cause and effect
When you are giving a presentation, your job is to not only present the facts but also to give the reasons (why), the purpose (objectives) and the results.
In a presentation, the language used is often very simple, much simpler than if we were writing.
For example:
Reason:
We sold the land because we needed to release the cash.
We closed the offices in London because they were too expensive to run.
Purpose:
We set up the team to look at possible ways to improve efficiency.
We sold the land to get necessary capital for investment.
Result:
We sold the land and had enough cash to invest in new equipment.
We expanded the sales network and sales increased.
Exercise 3. Categorize the statements.
Reason purpose result
Hosepipe bans were introduced and water was conserved for essential use.
The smoking ban was introduced and two million people stopped smoking.
The smoking ban was introduced because smoking causes serious health problems.
The smoking ban was introduced to reduce pollution in the air in public places.
The vaccination program was set up to prevent an outbreak of smallpox.
The vaccination program was set up and smallpox was eradicated.
Hosepipe bans were introduced because levels of water in reservoirs were low.
