It is words and
phrases that help us associate ideas. The idea of this works is make our oral
production more natural. The most common examples are:

as I was saying, basically, by the way, Let’s see, I mean, on the other hand, speaking
of.”
These words can be
used in different context for example:
Actually: is for make a
point or say something that is a fact. Example:

As I was saying: is
normally used to continuous with the main idea. Example:
… Yes, that is
important, we can take that into consideration for the next meeting, but is I was

have to express and talk with different people.
