Watch video versions of the Happy English Podcast on YouTube: Here

Today, let’s look at a really useful conversational phrase – “that reminds me.” We use that reminds me when something in the conversation makes us remember something else. It’s a natural way to change the topic or add new information without sounding abrupt.

Like, if your friend says, “I finally finished that book I was reading.” you can say, “Oh! That reminds me, I still have a book I need to return to the library.”

Or, your roommate says, “I’m thinking of making pasta for dinner tonight” you can say, “Oh, that reminds me, we’re out of olive oil.”

“That reminds me” is like saying, “Your comment just made me think of something related.” It’s a very natural way to shift topics in English.

Lemme know in the comments how it goes, and remember to follow or subscribe so you don’t miss the next Happy English Podcast and next week’s English Tips in a Minute. Hey, thanks for listening – and until next time, keep learning and keep it cool.
