If you hurt someone, said something wrong, or made a regrettable mistake, ‘I’m sorry’ can be two of the most helpful words.

Why is I am very sorry so challenging to say in any language? The next time you find yourself on the wrong side of wrong, say désolé, scusi, perdón, 对不起 or whatever the appropriate choice is.

Hopefully, you won’t need to practice these soon, but just in case, check a list and learn to say ‘I’m sorry’ in different languages worldwide. We know a few, and so should you.

If China wanted to economically injure the U.S. by selling off its debt securities, the result could be dramatically higher interest rates and a steep dollar devaluation.

No matter what you’re into, you'll find more to do in New York than you'll have time for. This includes time spent in court.

Once upon a time in The United States of America, the media broadcasts on the air belonged to the American public.

Then Congress became concerned that the monopoly audience control of the three main networks, NBC, ABC, and CBS, could misuse their broadcast licenses to set a biased public agenda.
