Dear Friends,
May Your English Be A Great Asset To Your Success!!!
Short-Cut-English!
First and foremost, let me explain the reason why I took this name. As you closely observe this Short-Cut-English, you will surely notice that it is only a combination of words, phrases and clauses, which does not have a main verb, and that the usages in this Short-Cut-English could be generally used in a really short but truly effective way. This is the very reason why I named it Short-Cut-English.
Secondly, I arranged this Short-Cut-English, based on one hundred English movies, dictionaries and my own reading-experiences. I am quite sure that you might have already known some of them in here, perhaps, even almost all of them, if so, my best advice to you is “Do not hesitate to skip them!”, but please make yourself quite sure whether or not you have really known them and you have surely had a good command of them already, for, you see, sometimes just to know of a usage is of no use for a practical application, really! As for me, honestly and frankly, I myself have most of them only at my command, not all of them.
Dear friends, my simply sincere hope is that this little endeavor of my own would certainly be just a tiny part for the improvement of your English, to some extent! Or a little bit!
