| Phrase | here goes |
| Text | The phrase "here goes," in this podcast, is used immediately before one tries to do something, especially if one does not believe it will succeed: "I don't think this will work, but we don't have any other options, so here goes." The phrase is often expressed as "here goes nothing" to show that one is beginning to do something that will fail or not work as intended: "Our bid probably won't be competitive against the other offers, but here goes nothing." The phrase "it just goes to show" is used to emphasize the moral or lesson of a story: "They were audited by the IRS. It just goes to show that you should never lie on your tax return." Finally, the phrase "it goes without saying" refers to something that most people understand: "It goes without saying that falling in love sometimes ends in heartbreak." |
