Hi, What does "On a side note" mean? If you say this in conversation with someone, it means you are about to mention something that is less directly related to what you have bith been talking about. eg You and I talk about your trip to China.

I think "on a side note" is very common.

I noticed Clive said "on an aside note," which shows there must be some regional variation.

Hi! A "side note" is something that is not directly related to what you are talking about, but usually connected in some way.

Grammar GeekI noticed Clive said "on an aside note," which shows there must be some regional variation.

Where did he do that? I can't seem to find the place...or are we talking different forum threads?
