A2 Expression ニュートラル

Desde luego.

Of course.

意味

Expressing strong agreement or certainty.

🌍

文化的背景

In Spain, 'Desde luego' is extremely common in the service industry. It sounds more 'attentive' than 'Sí'. While understood, Mexicans often prefer '¡Cómo no!' or 'Por supuesto'. 'Desde luego' can sound slightly 'Spanish' (from Spain) to Mexican ears. Argentines might use 'Desde ya' in similar contexts, especially when agreeing to something that will happen immediately. In professional Spanish across all regions, 'Desde luego' is a 'safe' phrase. It avoids the over-familiarity of 'Claro' while avoiding the coldness of 'Afirmativo'.

🎯

The 'Que' Rule

If you follow 'Desde luego' with a verb, you MUST add 'que'. Example: 'Desde luego QUE vendré'.

⚠️

Avoid Sarcasm

Be careful with your tone. If said flatly, it can sound like 'Obviously (duh)', which might be rude.
