Today, let’s look at a really useful conversational phrase — “it turns out (that).”
We use it turns out to mean actually or in fact, especially when the result is surprising or different from what we expected.
For example, you might say:
“I left the house in a hurry, and it turns out I forgot my wallet.”
Or when talking about relationships:
“They dated for a while, but it turns out they weren’t compatible.”
We also use this phrase when we discover new information:
“I did some research, and it turns out my grandfather was a taxi driver.”

So remember, when something ends up being different than you expected, try using “it turns out…” It’s a very natural way to tell that kind of story in English.
