Business English focuses on developing the specific English skills needed for communication in a business environment, such as vocabulary for business topics, writing emails and reports, making presentations, negotiating, and participating in meetings. General English also aims to improve fundamental listening, speaking, reading and writing skills but does not focus on business content. The main difference is that Business English targets the language needs of one's job, while General English improves overall skills without regard to context. Learning Business English is important as it can help one achieve career goals, such as getting a job, promotion or raise, as well as feeling more confident in their professional role through improved business communication abilities.
