cool! Thank you! - 07-02-2008, 06:23 PM

They are so useful, thank you very much,

aligatoh!


I used to say

"to make a long story short"
When I want to summarise the story,


I like the sound of "to sum it up"
and I like "nutshell" one,too.

I hope I have a chance to use them tomorrow at work!


oh, I have another question, may I?

It's about "anyway"

Sometimes, I see or hear people say

anywayS

anyhow

anyhoo (?) it sounds like this

Can you tell me about "anyway" thing?

Here are some other phrases you might use in the same context to mean the same thing:

"In short,"
"Basically,"
"In sum,"
"To sum it up,"

I think you already got the general idea, but I just thought I'd add some more to think about^_^
