Okay, so let's get on with this particular lesson, this advanced English lesson, looking at expressions and we headed up how to speak English in 30 minutes.
So if you can use some of these and concentrate and focus on this particular lesson, then in 30 minutes, there or thereabouts, you're going to pick up phrases that you can use on a day to day basis.
Okay?
Number one, at the end of the day, at the end of the day, this is very, very common, very well used.
It's used by people to introduce a summary or bring about a conclusion in something they are saying, you know.
So, for example, I know it's been a tough project for us all, but at the end of the day, we have learned a lot.
Now, it could be the teacher who's saying it to the class.
I know this has been a tough year, a tough academic year for all of us, but at the end of the day, it's going to help you to pass those all important exams that are beginning next week.
So the teacher can use it.
In that respect, at the end of the day means in summary or in conclusion, at the end of the day, I think we can all agree that family comes first.
And these are the important things that matter.
So at the end of the day, no matter what happens, no matter what arguments we have, family always comes first.
Okay?
So at the end of the day, so well used expression number two.
