| Comment | In fact, I asked native-speaking co-workers what the meaning was originally, then found it on ALC. This word is widely used within my company, and in very work-oriented contexts as the example (from a real email) shows.
I'm happy for you folks to have my contact info (below) but obviously please don't include it in distributed materials! |
