RIGHT
RIGHT: meaning and examples
Good morning. Today's expression is: right It is used: to say that you agree with someone; to accept what another person says. Like yesterday's expression, today's expression, RIGHT, can mean several different things. It can be used to get someone's attention; to check if your information is correct; as a noun or an adjective, etc. However, our examples below focus on today's meaning: to say that you agree with someone or to accept what another person says. Example 1 Managing Director: We really need to modernise our office. Director of Operations: Right. We could start by getting new computers. Example 2 Executive: I'd like you to cancel my one o'clock appointment with Ms. Anderson. Secretary: Right. Shall I reschedule it for tomorrow? Right can also be used in a sarcastic way to indicate that you do not agree or accept what another person says: Example 3 Mary: Where's Alice? Jean: She called to say the she will meet us later. Mary: Yeah, right. She always says that but then she never shows up (no se presenta). The translation of the last meaning of right would be something like si hombre in Spanish.
