在提到希望得到的待遇時(shí)，可用類似的句子：

I'd prefer not to set a salary, but since you ask, I consider 6,500 a month to be satisfactory.

It's hard for me to say what my salary should be set at, but if pressed I would have to ask for a month as an initial salary.

I don't feel that I should set my own salary, as I am happy enough to have the privilege of working for you. However, I would consider a month satisfactory compensation for my apprenticeship.

提起或要求待遇時(shí)不要過分謙虛或表示歉意，下列句子不宜使用：

As for salary, I do not know what to say. Would $4,500 a month be too much？

Do you think I would be asking too much if I said 5,000 dollars a month？

You know what my services are worth better than I do. All I want is a living wage.
