You need him to sign a contract before you can work with him. You hand him the contract and say:</u></span></span></span></p><p><span style="font-family: 'Arial Narrow'"><span style="font-size: 15px"><span style="color: DeepSkyBlue">"Skim over it and let me know if you have any questions."</span></span></span></p><p><span style="font-family: 'Arial Narrow'"><span style="font-size: 15px"></span></span></p><p><span style="font-family: 'Arial Narrow'"><span style="font-size: 15px"><u>skim (a written text or document)</u></span></span></p><p><span style="font-family: 'Arial Narrow'"><span style="font-size: 15px">To "skim" something means to read it very quickly and incompletely. For example, if you "skim" a newspaper, you might read the headlines and a few sentences from some of the articles.</span></span></p><p><span style="font-family: 'Arial Narrow'"><span style="font-size: 15px"></span></span></p><p><span style="font-family: 'Arial Narrow'"><span style="font-size: 15px"><u>look over (something)</u></span></span></p><p><span style="font-family: 'Arial Narrow'"><span style="font-size: 15px">To "look over" something means to look at something to see if it's OK. In other words, it means to "check" something. For example:</span></span></p><p><span style="font-family: 'Arial Narrow'"><span style="font-size: 15px"></span></span></p><p><span style="font-family: 'Arial Narrow'"><span style="font-size: 15px">"I can look over your homework if you want."</span></span></p><p><span style="font-family: 'Arial Narrow'"><span style="font-size: 15px"></span></span></p><p><span style="font-family: 'Arial Narrow'"><span style="font-size: 15px">In the example above, the speaker combines "look over" with "skim" to make the phrase "skim over". This means to look over the contract quickly.</span></span></p><p><span style="font-family: 'Arial Narrow'"><span style="font-size: 15px"></span></span></p><p><span style="font-family: 'Arial Narrow'"><span style="font-size: 15px"><u>let me know if you have any questions</u></span></span></p><p><span style="font-family: 'Arial Narrow'"><span style="font-size: 15px">"Let me know" means "tell me". But "let me know" is a more polite and friendly expression. It's very common to hear in an English-speaking workplace:</span></span></p><p><span style="font-family: 'Arial Narrow'"><span style="font-size: 15px"></span></span></p><p><span style="font-family: 'Arial Narrow'"><span style="font-size: 15px">"If anything comes up between now and then, just let me know."</span></span></p><p><span style="font-family: 'Arial Narrow'"><span style="font-size: 15px">"Think it over and let me know in the next week or so."</span></span></p><p><span style="font-family: 'Arial Narrow'"><span style="font-size: 15px"></span></span></p><p><span style="font-family: 'Arial Narrow'"><span style="font-size: 15px">"Let me know if you have any questions" is a common way to politely offer to answer someone's questions about something. It's also a good way to end a business email or telephone call when you've given someone information and don't need to ask them for anything. For example:</span></span></p><p><span style="font-family: 'Arial Narrow'"><span style="font-size: 15px"></span></span></p><p><span style="font-family: 'Arial Narrow'"><span style="font-size: 15px">Hi Fran,</span></span></p><p><span style="font-family: 'Arial Narrow'"><span style="font-size: 15px">Attached is a summary of our costs for this month. Let me know if you have any questions.</span></span></p><p><span style="font-family: 'Arial Narrow'"><span style="font-size: 15px">Thanks,</span></span></p><p><span style="font-family: 'Arial Narrow'"><span style="font-size: 15px">Aaron</span></span></p><p><span style="font-family: 'Arial Narrow'"></span></p><p><span style="font-family: 'Arial Narrow'"><a href="http://www.phrasemix.com" target="_blank">www.phrasemix.com</a></span></p></blockquote><p></p>
