in a nutshell
means? What about the bottom line
? They both have in common that they announce a conclusion. In this English class, I will teach you some common expressions we use in speech that tell the listener that we are about to conclude what we want to say. You will learn to sum up
, all in all
, in a nutshell
, the bottom line is
, and for these reasons
. I will also explain some expressions that are useful in writing but sound strange in speech. Last but not least
, test your knowledge by taking our quiz at the end of this video.

GOOD JOB
your English accent is American,isn’t it?

as it handles a different context
what about to conclude
in short
in brief
in a word
to sum up
in other words
briefly,
TO sum up I really liked this class, thus i’ll try to apply in my speaking
