I RESPECT YOUR OPINION BUT...: meaning and examples

Happy Friday everyone. Welcome back to the Daily Vitamin.

Today is Friday the 13th, but we're not going to focus on that. ;-) Instead, we are going to present two final phrases that you can use to disagree with someone, which tend to be more polite and less forceful.

Today's 1st phrase isI respect your opinion, but… 

Meaning / Use: This phrase acknowledges the other person’s viewpoint before providing your own opinion.

Example 1: I respect your opinion, but I believe there’s another side to this issue. 

Today's 2nd phrase isWhat do you think about…?

Meaning / Use: When you use this phrase you encourage dialogue and invite the other person to share their thoughts on a potential solution.

Example 2What do you think about trying a different approach to the sales pitch? Let's create a less-aggressive version.

👉 I encourage you, one last time this week, to write your own sentences with one or both of today's phrases. You can post your sentences on one of our social media sites (Facebook or Bluesky) and we will give you feedback about your writing ASAP.

Enjoy the rest of your day and have an excellent weekend! We'll be back one Monday with phrases related to money and finance.
