Tradução & Definição
On a different note, (I'm getting married next weekend): Mudando de assunto, (eu me casarei no próximo final de semana)
Exercício 1
From the list below, choose the expression which could replace the phrase all that aside as it is used in Polly's email.
From the list below, choose the expression which could replace the phrase all that aside as it is used in Polly's email.
This is the best choice. The expression "all that aside" signals a change or transition in topic. Here Polly is indicating that she has finished writing about the misuse of the suggestion box, and will now move on to another topic (cafeteria policy). "On a different note" suggests a similar transition.
This is not the best choice. "To summarize" suggests that a conclusion is coming, or that the next idea or passage will conclude the message. This expression is different from "all that aside", which indicates a change in topic.
This is not the best choice. The expression "all that aside" signals a change or transition in topic, not that one subject will be revisited later on.
This is not the best choice. "Furthermore" signals that more information concerning the same topic is forthcoming. For example, Polly might write "Furthermore, we will no longer tolerate the abuse of the suggestion box."

Bruno: I’m sure.
Bruno: That may be true, but a human, I am taken more seriously.
Pigeon: I’m not sure that’s really important. an unrelated note, I just ate a shoelace. It was delicious.
Bruno: I’m sure.
Pigeon: I’m just as 1 qualified as you are to run this company.
Bruno: That may be true, but as 2 a human, I am taken more seriously.

1 as: We use 'as… as…' to make comparisons of equality. Another example: 'He is as creative as his sister'.
1 more: 'More' is followed by 'than', not 'as'. The pigeon could say: 'I am more qualified than you'.
1 like: 'Like' is followed by a noun, not an adjective ('qualified'). We could say: 'I'm highly qualified, just like you' or '…just like this pigeon'.
2 as: In this context, 'as a human' means 'because I am a human' or 'in my capacity as a human'. Another example: 'As a world-famous singer, I am recognized across the globe'.
2 like: 'Like' is used to make a comparison. For example: 'Like the tiger, the lion is a highly skilled hunter'. It doesn't make sense for Bruno to compare himself to a human in this way, because he is a human!
2 in: 'In' describes location inside, or at the interior, of something. This doesn't make sense here. Example: 'I am waiting for you in the café'.
3 whether: 'Whether' has a similar meaning to 'if'. 'I'm not sure whether that's important' means that it might be important or it might not: the speaker is not certain which is the case. Another example: 'I didn't know whether I would still have a job the next day'.
3 as: 'As' does not make sense here. With a different word order, the pigeon might say: 'As I'm not sure about that, I'm going to defer to you'. In that context, 'as' would mean 'because'.
3 of: 'To be sure of' is an expression which must be followed immediately by a noun. For example: 'We are not sure of the reliability of his statement'.
4 On: 'On an unrelated note' (or 'On a different note') is an idiom used to switch to a new or unconnected conversation topic. Another example: 'I loved the meal you cooked. On an unrelated note, I don't feel very well right now.'
4 As: This does not sound natural in English.
4 In: This does not sound natural in English.
