We have a listener question about this that you\u2019ll want to take a look at. <\/p>\n

\n

Hello Lindsay, <\/em><\/strong><\/p>\n

How are you? I have been listening to your podcast, and I really like them. I learn a lot from each episode, and now I have a question for you. <\/em><\/strong><\/p>\n

I want to know more about the phrase \u201cso-called\u201d, and how to use it correctly. I think I understand the words, but I don\u2019t understand this phrase completely. <\/em><\/strong><\/p>\n

Thanks in advance for your help recording a new podcast on this subject! <\/em><\/strong><\/p>\n

<\/div>\n

Looking At A Common Phrase<\/strong><\/h3>\n

So yes, you are likely to hear this phrase used often, so you want to know what it means and how to use it. <\/p>\n

When you hear \u201cso-called\u201d it\u2019s a combination of two common words, but it has a bit of a different meaning than you might expect. <\/p>\n

From the dictionary you will find that the actual meaning is \u201cused to show that something or someone is commonly designated by the name or term specified.\u201d <\/p>\n

It also has another meaning which is \u201cused to express one\u2019s view that a name or term is inappropriate.\u201d <\/p>\n

You may also find a definition regarding using it before a new term, which would make sense on the news. <\/p>\n

You may hear it used in a number of different ways, as it is quite common as part of a conversation. <\/p>\n

You may tend to think of it most frequently as a sarcastic term as that is what it is often intended to be. <\/p>\n

It can certainly be genuine, particularly if you hear it on the news or something like that. <\/p>\n

So you see the various uses for this phrase, and now you want to learn how to use it properly. <\/p>\n

This can be a fun addition to your conversations, so it\u2019s a great phrase to learn. <\/p>\n

<\/div>\n

Looking At Some Examples<\/strong><\/h3>\n

As with anything, using a phrase like this is something that you want to master. <\/p>\n

So let\u2019s take a look at some examples so that you can see firsthand how to use this, and what is common to hear in conversation.<\/p>\n

-\u201cSmith and his team of so-called \u201cexperts\u201d got it all wrong.\u201d What does so-called mean here? In this instance you can detect the sarcasm. It sounds as if the person speaking doesn\u2019t have any confidence in the experts, and is calling this out with some sarcasm. It has a negative tone here. <\/p>\n

-\u201cThese so-called \u201cdroplets\u201d are what spreads the virus.\u201d What does so-called mean here? In this case you can almost hear this being used on the news as a feature story. This may be a health expert trying to explain something. They may be breaking something down into understandable terms, and so this phrase works perfectly in this instance. <\/p>\n

Why use this? <\/p>\n

It signifies something important before a word, and so it has a distinct purpose. <\/p>\n

Why is this important? <\/p>\n

It\u2019s an easy way to either give new information or show your opinion on something. <\/p>\n

We are going to focus on the sarcastic, snarky way today more. <\/p>\n

This makes for a fun addition to your conversation, but you do want to be mindful of the way in which you use it. <\/p>\n

<\/div>\n

Other Ways To Use This Phrase<\/strong><\/h3>\n

You can tell by the various uses for this phrase that it\u2019s quite common, and it\u2019s bound to show up frequently. <\/p>\n

That means that you want to be sure to understand the different ways that you can use this sort of phrase. <\/p>\n

So let\u2019s take a look at a few more examples of this phrase and how you can work it into various aspects of conversation. <\/p>\n

-\u201cThis so-called \u201cgreat technology\u201d really hasnt been working well at all.\u201d <\/p>\n

-\u201cThat so-called \u201csale\u201d didn\u2019t save me any money.\u201d<\/p>\n

-\u201cHis so-called \u201cgift\u201d still hasn\u2019t arrived one year later.\u201d <\/p>\n

All of these examples are sarcastic in nature. <\/p>\n

The purpose of this phrase in each of these examples is to be sarcastic, or sort of make fun of the situation in a way. <\/p>\n

Without this phrase, the statements would sound too genuine. <\/p>\n

So by adding it in, you see that it takes on a very sarcastic tone\u2014and it\u2019s not necessarily a good or positive addition. <\/p>\n

It shows you don\u2019t believe this word, or that things went the opposite way of how you anticipated or wished for. <\/p>\n

Let\u2019s also talk about quotation marks in each of these examples too\u2014for these play a rather important role. <\/p>\n

We haven\u2019t talked about quotation marks used in this way, so this presents a good opportunity to do so. <\/p>\n

We can get into this more another day, but basically, you can put quotes in if you are being sarcastic. <\/p>\n

It\u2019s a \u201cgreat day\u201d \u2013you would use this when you aren\u2019t having a good day at all. <\/p>\n

If you see quotes used in this way, particularly when partnered with the phrase \u201cso-called\u201d then there is usually sarcasm attached to it in some way. <\/p>\n

Sometimes we can be sarcastic and show our opinions with just our voice. <\/p>\n

We can do that with these as well, as we don\u2019t have to always use so-called at the same time. <\/p>\n

Let\u2019s try the examples without it, and you can see how it works here. <\/p>\n

-\u201cThis \u201cgreat technology\u201d really hasn\u2019t been working well at all.\u201d <\/p>\n

-\u201cThat \u201csale\u201d didn\u2019t save me any money.\u201d <\/p>\n

-\u201cHis \u201cgift\u201d still hasn\u2019t arrived one year later.\u201d <\/p>\n

So does so-called change anything? <\/p>\n

Though you can still convey the same sort of thing, adding in \u201cso-called\u201d makes it stronger or snarkier. <\/p>\n

Just be sure that you are aware of when the right time to use this sort of sarcasm is. <\/p>\n

Be aware of your tone of voice, who you are using this with, and the circumstances that you are using this in\u2014and if all appropriate then it makes for the perfect addition. <\/p>\n

<\/div>\n

Roleplay To Help<\/strong><\/h3>\n

You want to see a phrase like this in action, so you can begin to understand when it works well. <\/p>\n

This roleplay is simple, as it\u2019s just Lindsay and Michelle talking about somebody who isn\u2019t acting right or getting good grades. <\/p>\n

Lindsay: \u201cI can\u2019t believe he did that.\u201d <\/p>\n

Michelle: \u201cI know. And his so-called perfect grades don\u2019t even matter if he acts that way.\u201d <\/p>\n

In this instance, it is definitely not a flattering usage for the phrase. <\/p>\n

You can start to see how it is intended to be used when you look at the context, as well as the intonation when it is used. <\/p>\n

This is a phrase that you really have to pay attention to in terms of the way it is used, the tone used when using it, and the circumstances. <\/p>\n

You can turn this into a positive and helpful phrase, or you can use it sarcastically and potentially have a negative interpretation of it. <\/p>\n

Just be sure that you know which way you intend it to be used, and then it will work out much better in the end. <\/p>\n

<\/div>\n

Takeaway<\/strong><\/h3>\n

This is such a common phrase with various uses, and so we could do a follow up on this. <\/p>\n

There is a lot to talk about with this phrase such as if somebody uses quotation marks when delivering it, or if other words are associated. <\/p>\n

We went over the basics today, so you at least have a basic understanding of it. <\/p>\n

Try it out and let us know how it works for you.<\/p>\n

Just pay attention to the way in which you intend to use it, the way that people take it, and the circumstances that you use it in. <\/p>\n

Using the phrase \u201cso-called\u201d can be a nice addition to conversation, and so it\u2019s a great one to try out for a fun twist. <\/p>\n
