Use a pause instead of 'but' while apologizing.
在道歉时使用停顿而非'但是'。
We all know whatever said before the 'but' was a moral obligation. It also makes your apology sound artificial.
我们都知道在'但是'之前所说的话都是出于道德义务上的考量。这只会让你的道歉看起来很虚伪。
**Eg. ** I'm sorry for the ordinary code but we had deadlines.
例子：关于那些一般的代码我很抱歉但是我们到截止日期了。
I'm sorry for the ordinary code <pause>. We had deadlines.
关于那些一般的代码我很抱歉<停顿>，我们到截止日期了。
Smooth way of passing the blame as well :D
同样适用于推卸责任:D
Edit: There's a video from Game of Thrones about this!
编辑：关于这点还有一段权力的游戏的视频！
Benjen Stark & Tyrion Lannister - "Nothing someone says before but"
I have clipped it to 20 seconds, so hopefully everything is still under a minute :)
我剪辑了 20 秒，所以一切还是在一分钟以内。
From the video,
在视频中，
** Tyrion:** Listen, Benjen May I call you Benjen?
提利昂：听着，班扬，我可以叫你班扬吗？
Benjen: Call me what you like.
班扬：随你怎么叫。
Tyrion: I'm not sure what I've done to offend you. I have great admiration for the Night's Watch. I've great admiration for you as First Ranger.
提利昂：我不知道我什么地方冒犯了你。我很尊重守夜人。我也很尊重作为第一游骑兵的你。
** Benjen:** You know, my brother once told me that nothing someone says before the word "****but****" really counts.
班扬：你看，我兄长曾经告诉过我，不论什么人在“****但是****”之前所说的话都不可信。
** Tyrion:** But I don't believe that giants and ghouls and White Walkers are lurking beyond the Wall.
提利昂：但是我真的不相信巨人、食尸鬼、异鬼在长城的另一边潜伏着。
