Sobre este título
Today, let’s look at another really common conversational phrase - “here’s the thing.”
We use here’s the thing before giving a reason, an opinion, or sometimes even an excuse. Here’s the thing is a perfect thing to day when you want to introduce a point or explain a situation clearly.
- For example, imagine a friend asks you to go out on Friday night, you can say: “I’d love to, but here’s the thing - I have an early meeting tomorrow.”
- Or if a friend asks you to go somewhere on the weekend. You can explain like this “Here’s the thing - I already promised my brother I’d help him move.”
- Here’s the thing also works when you want to disagree in an indirect way. Like your coworker says, “This plan should work, right?” you can disagree with “Here’s the thing - I’m not sure everyone will be able to do it.”
So here’s the thing is like saying, “actually or in fact, plus a reason”
Let’s practice. Write your example with “here’s the thing in the comments. And remember to follow or subscribe so you don’t miss the next Happy English Podcast and next week’s English Tips in a Minute. Hey, thanks for listening - and until next time, keep learning and keep it cool.
