To avoid | To substitute |
“etc” “things like that” | . (Full stop) |
”eh” | “Having said that…” |
“um” | “That being said” |
“all those things” | |
“I believe” | |
“I think” | “I’m in the opinion that” |
“I know for a fact” | “It is a fact that” |
“I do not want to waste time” | “Since time is limited” |
“It has been found that” | “Research statistics shows”, always give strong references |
“To sum up very quickly” | “I will try to make this short” |
“Any questions?” | “Questions and clarifications are most welcome now” |
“Briefly stating” | “In a nutshell” |
“Yes or no?” | “How many people say yes – hands up!” |
