Sobre este título
Today, let’s look at a really common conversational phrase - “to be honest…”
We use to be honest when we want to soften our thoughts or feelings, Like when we need to say something negative Or if we need to disagree or decline an invitation.
- Like if a friend asks, “Did you like the movie?” You could say: “To be honest, I thought it was kind of boring.”
- Or if your coworkers invite you to get together after work, but you don’t want to. You can say, “To be honest, I’d rather stay home tonight.”
Using to be honest, makes your opinion sound less direct and a little softer. And, it shows that you’re being open and sincere.
So remember, when you want to share your real opinion, try using “to be honest…” It’s simple, natural, and very common in everyday English.
