✅Accepted Facts
Often when we are debating with other people, or writing academic essays, we want to introduce ideas that we know others agree on. Here are ten phrases.
1️⃣It's common knowledge that...
2️⃣It's a fact (that)..
3️⃣Anyone will tell you..
4️⃣Everybody knows that...
5️⃣It's a well-established fact that
6️⃣Few people would deny that..
7️⃣It's no secret that...
8️⃣I think we can all accept / agree that..
9️⃣It is generally assumed that...
🔟It has been scientifically proven that...
How To Use These Phrases In Your English:
In phrases 1, 2, 3, 4, and 5 the speaker is introducing ideas that everybody agrees are true.
The other 5 phrases are a little less strong, saying that a few people might disagree, but nearly everybody does agree with your statement.
Phrases 1, 5, 6 and 10 are good opening phrases for a discursive essay. You can use one of these phrases to establish the importance of the topic before introducing an aspect of the topic that is not agreed.
Phrases 3, 4, 7 and 8 are often used in spoken discussions or debates.
Phrase 10 is saying that somebody has done an experiment that proves your statement to be true. If using this in writing you may want to refer specifically to scientist or the experiment itself in your next sentence.

🅾 Real Conditional
🛑 We use real conditionals to talk about results based on real events and situations. Real conditionals are divided into zero and first conditionals.
🔴 When we know the same result always happens after an event or situation, we use a zero conditional.
🛑 FORM 🛑
🔵 Conditional sentences have two parts:
🛑 the if— clause
🛑 the result clause
🔵 We can put the #if_clause first, or we can put the #result_clause first. We do not need a #comma when the result clause comes first.
🔵 Office hours are between 9.30 am and 4.30 pm, Monday to Thursday if you want to see us.
🅾 We can use present continuous and past tenses with real conditional sentences, as well as modal verbs like #can and #passive_forms.
🔴 If you are having problems with your accommodation, we can try to help you.
🔵 Jane stopped studying if she felt tired and took a break instead.
🅾 With zero conditionals, #if can be replaced by #when to make the result of the condition more certain.
🔵 When you want to call us, telephone 0800 835222.
🅾 We use #then to focus on the result of the condition.
🔴 If the International Office is closed for lunch, then leave a note at main reception.
🅾 Because real conditionals refer to something that is generally true, we can use adverbs of frequency like #always and #never with them.
🔵 If we are not here, you can always leave a message.
🛑 Negative Form 🛑
🅾 We can make the #if_clause or the #result_clause or #both clauses #negative, but this changes the meaning of the sentence.
🔵 If you don’t need help, don’t call us!
🔴 If you don’t know how to use the University computer system, we teach you how to do it.

🔵 Wh- questions 🔵
🔴 Where do you go if you want some advice?
