by the way · incidentally · to add something related
This gem is perfect when you suddenly remember something loosely related to your current conversation or want to smoothly shift the topic just a tad! ✨ It’s like saying, 'Hey, while we're talking about this, let me just add this little thing...'
Your friend is telling you about their new job. You suddenly remember a relevant article you read about that industry. Which expression would you use to introduce this new thought? A. What's up? B. On a side note... C. Take it easy.
💡 **Pro-tip!** Use 'on a side note' when you want to introduce a new, but related, thought without completely derailing the main conversation. It signals to your listener that you're just adding a quick point or moving to a slightly different, but connected, idea. It's super handy for keeping chats flowing naturally!
