Which of the following terms could replace "consequently" in Icarus's email?
"Consequently, I will be working on those financial projections Bruno asked for."
Which of the following terms could replace "consequently" in Icarus's email?
Which of the following terms could replace "consequently" in Icarus's email?
This is the correct answer. "As a result" can replace "consequently" in this sentence and both phrases share a similar meaning: because of the reason given. Example: "I've hurt my foot. Consequently, I can't play football today."
This is incorrect. The expression "in other words" introduces a sentence that is said in a different, clearer way. Example: I don't think we should be together, in other words, I no longer love you. This does not share the same meaning as "consequently".
This is incorrect. The expression "in the meantime" is used to introduce a simultaneous action or period of time, but usually in the short term. Example: "I'm going to the shops. In the meantime, I want you to clean the flat." This does not share the same meaning as "consequently".
This is incorrect. "On the contrary" is used to describe something that is in opposition to what has been stated. Example: I'm not sick. On the contrary, I'm feeling very well. This does not share the same meaning as "consequently".
