뜻
It is important to highlight or mention a particular point.
문화적 배경
In Spanish academic circles, 'Cabe destacar' is almost mandatory in the introduction of a thesis to signal the 'estado de la cuestión' (state of the art). In Mexican political discourse, this phrase is often used by officials to highlight government achievements during the 'Mañaneras' (daily press conferences). Argentine journalists often use this phrase to introduce a 'pero' (but) or a counter-argument in opinion pieces. This is a standard phrase in UN documents translated into Spanish to ensure a neutral, highly formal tone.
The 'DELE' Secret
Using this phrase in the writing section of the DELE B2/C1 exam automatically boosts your 'cohesion' and 'register' scores.
The 'De' Trap
Never say 'Cabe de destacar'. It is the most common mistake for both students and native speakers.
