    ¿"APROVECHO PARA DECIRTE" EN INGLÉS?

    10/4/2020

    After reading a lot of emails in Spanish it is clear to me that the phrase "aprovecho para decirte" is commonly used as a way of adding something to your original email that is not exactly connected to the main issue:
    Aprovecho para decirte que...
    ​So, how would you say this in an email in English?

    Well, the first thing that probably comes to your mind is:
    • to take advantage of

    Which technically is correct but it doesn't work very well in an email:
    • Taking advantage, I just wanted to ask you…

    This approach is just a little too literal and relatively unnatural.

    A better version would be:
    • Seeing as I am writing to you I just wanted to ask...
    • As a side note, I just wanted to ask you...
    • By the way, I just wanted to ask you…

    Super useful one… in my humble opinion :)

    I hope that helps! I hope that helps! If you are interested in taking your business English to the next level, you can check out my 5-star rated book "123 consejos para impresionar a tu jefe con tu inglés" on Amazon!

    Thanks
