<i>English Small Talk Phrases With “THING”</i><br />
<br />
<u><b>What do you think about the whole … thing?</b> </u>– a handy way to ask for someone’s opinion on something that the other person is already familiar with. Basically you don’t need to explain the problem in detail, you just use one or two words before the word “thing” that would make it clear what the story is about. Moreover, you don’t have to make sure they correspond to the rest of the sentence in terms of grammar, just stick them in – “So what do you think about the whole who gets the best score thing?” “What do you think about the whole promotion thing?”<br />
<br />
<u><b>This whole … thing looks really messed up (pretty bad etc.)</b> </u>– the same as previous phrase – just stick the relevant word or words in between the words “whole” and “thing” – and there you go! You have a perfect way of making a comment about some problem. “This whole bank bailout thing looks really messed up!”<br />
<br />
<u><b>The thing is that …</b> </u>- this is a great way to start explaining your point when someone asks you to explain something. A more formal way of responding to a question would be “The reason for… is the following…” or “Let me explain you why…” or whatever would be the most fitting sentence for a particular occasion. “The thing is that…” is a universal phrase you can use in nearly all situations when you’re asked to explain something!<br />
<br />
<b><u>Here’s the thing</u> </b>… - this English small talk phrase is a brilliant way to start a conversation if you want to make an offer, ask for a favor or advice, or explain a problem. “OK, here’s the thing – I can’t make it to 9:30 tomorrow morning, can you fill in for me?”<br />
<br />
<u><b>How are things?</b> </u>– a typical greeting phrase you can use when addressing people you’re familiar with or if you get to know them in a less formal setting – “Hi Tom, how are things?” You can also say “How’s things?” – and don’t get confused by bad grammar in the phrase. Conversational English is full of grammar “mistakes”! ;-)<br />
<br />
<u><b>Things are looking up</b> </u>– means that you’re satisfied with your life and everything seems to be happening for the better.<br />
<br />
<u><b>Things are pretty bad</b> </u>– this is what you’d say if you’re asked “How are you?” or “How are things?” and you have to admit that you’re in a pretty bad situation at the moment. Normally though, unless you’re in really deep trouble, don’t start crying on someone’s shoulder. On 9 occasions out of 10 the average person would say that everything is fine even if they had some issues. It’s a way of programming yourself for success :!:<br />
<br />
<u><b>There’s one more thing</b></u> – just another way of saying “I have something else to say in this regard”.<br />

<div>
<span style="font-size: 14px;"><br /></span></div>
<div>
<span style="font-size: 14px;">The
comma is probably the most versatile punctuation mark in English. For
this reason, commas are also the most overused and misused. Problems
with commas vary, but include unnecessary commas, a comma when there
should be a period or semicolon, or a missing comma (after an
introductory clause for instance). Most good writers use semicolons
sparingly. Often, you can improve a complicated sentence that contains
semicolons by rewriting the sentence to use some other punctuation mark.</span></div>
<div>
<span style="font-size: 14px;"><br /></span></div>
<div>
<span style="font-size: 14px;">One
way to improve your sentence structure is to learn common patterns.
Here are the major sentence structures, followed by definitions of the
terminology and practice exercises.</span></div>

<span style="font-size: 14px;"><b><span style="color: red;">Subordinate

used before and after it.</span></div>

<span style="font-size: 14px;"><br /></span></div>
<div style="text-align: left;">
<span style="font-size: 14px;"><span style="color: red;"><b>Restrictive
modifier</b></span>: A group of modifying words in the middle of a sentence that
convey information necessary to understanding the meaning of the
sentence. No commas are used. When “that” is used to begin the clause,
it’s automatically a restrictive modifier.</span></div>

Sorry, I can’t talk at the moment – I’m a bit pressed for time. Can I call you back later?<br />
<br />
