1 R% P5 f: \, ~. H  E我知道这么说MAKE SENSE，但不是我的本意。一个地方发请帖请INVESTIGATOR去荷兰开会，老板想让我去，我是想回他EM说，在这个项目里我只是RA不是INVESTIGATOR。随手就写成I AM NOT AN INVESTIGATOR RATHER THAN A RA。发完了之后，想想好像不对了，我们老板估计又得噎一下了。

9 H5 b# @4 i: q* i$ j9 ]  |4 S  J" Q; ZI am not an investigator, but a RA. Or, I am only a RA, not the investigator.

If I were you, I would say: "Ooops, I thought I was only a RA. How about xxx (the name of the investigator)?".
