I like the quiet of the mornings, but that's not to say that I don't love a sunset (=the apparent descent of the sun below the horizon) too. And especially, you know, getting to see in California, such incredible sunsets. They're mad.
Hello guys. Thanks for tuning in (tune in= to listen to or view a broadcast of). This is Daniel Goodson. I am the vocab man and you're listening to fluent vocabulary.
But that's not to say that I don't love.
That's not to say is another expression I probably have never used before, but when I come across this expression in a movie or a series.
I know exactly what it means. But remember guys that this show is all about becoming more fluent or to appear more natural or, um, to sound like a native. Well kind of, not exactly because we will never be a native speaker that is crystal clear, but nevertheless, I want to try to use this expression more often.
And especially also, because when I looked it up, it appeared hundreds of times. I mean, this expression is used quite a lot by native speakers.
With cloud computing. And I think the same thing now is beginning to happen to information technology, which arguably. Is as important to businesses today as power was to our industrial forebears (ANCESTOR, FOREFATHER) a hundred years ago.
And that's not to say that information technology or computing and electricity are similar as technologies. Obviously they're very, very different. The easiest explanation or definition of the expression that's not to say is as simple as that. That does not mean. So we could just say that does not mean that doesn't mean, but nevertheless, let's try to use, that's not to say.
I mean, even Obama is using this expression.
That's not to say that our work is complete. In addition to our NATO (North Atlantic Treaty Organization) responsibilities, we will work with the international community to provide assistance. To the people of living.
A more complicated definition of "that's not to say that" could be used for adding a statement that correct what you have just said or makes it less definite (DECIDED) .
Now that's not to say that I'm old enough to remember the first woman who ever flew, because I know women have been flying for decades (a decade = a period of 10 years) before I ever even thought of flying.
Some synonyms could be, this does not mean that.
It doesn't signify. It doesn't imply it doesn't represent, or this is not to suggest that, but basically there are a hundred different ways to express similar ideas.
So guys, that's almost it for today. I hope you enjoyed. And of course, don't worry if you didn't understand every single word, because this audio bites are quite difficult to grasp, quite difficult to understand, but don't worry. I have made a transcript for you so you can read along while you are listening to me, the Vocab Man on this show. Fluent vocabulary. Thanks a lot. And bye.
That's not to say that our work is complete. In addition to our NATO responsibilities, we will work with the international community to provide assistance to the people that live there. That's not to say that our work.
And that's not to say that information technology or computing and electricity are similar as technology is obviously they're very, very different.
