Touch base 碰头、了解情况
    2023-08-17  08:53    Shenzhen Daily

A: Can I have a minute?

B: Sure. What’s up?

A: I just wanted to quickly touch base with you. Did you get an email from my secretary about the meeting?

Note: Touch base is an expression meaning “make contact” or “reconnect.” It means “to talk to someone for a short time to find out how they are or what they think about something.” The expression is thought to have originated in the sport of baseball. It’s most often used in a business context, but it can also be used in informal contexts to mean the same thing.
