7 分钟Hi there.
This is Harry, and welcome to a podcast where we try to help you with your understanding of the english language, to help you with conversation, expressions, grammar, all aspects that will help you to communicate in perhaps a better way.
So what do I have for you in this particular podcast?
Well, well, I want to start this podcast with looking at some expressions using the preposition in.
Okay, so expressions with the preposition in.
So we'll start the first one.
In accordance with.
In accordance with.
So it's quite formal and in accordance with means, in accordance with your instructions, in line with your instructions, or as you told me.
So, I have completed the legal documents and in accordance with your instructions, the lawyer for the other side is going to sign them.
Okay, so I have completed the documentation in accordance with your instructions, and the lawyer for the other side is going to sign the documents.
So when we say in accordance with, it means along with or as you have set out, or as you instructed me, in accordance with next expression, in the hope that I have written to my brother, in the hope that he will forgive me for our argument and we can become friends again, in the hope that.
So you would like it to happen, you would like some warming in the relationship.
Okay, so in the hope that something will happen, the government have introduced very strong isolation measures and this distancing with the coronavirus aspects, in the hope that it will reduce the number of infections.
In the hope that they really want this to happen.
In the hope that next one.
In the event that.
In the event that.
So we can use this when we believe something might happen.
And what would we do when that particular thing does happen?
