Here’s another storytelling classic for y’all!
Seriously, you’re gonna hear resulta que at every turn.
Quite literally ;)
You see, this chunk means:
👉 turns out / turns out that
💡 Resulta que is used to move a story forward by introducing a new, unexpected development.
So yeah, it's obviously an essential chunk if you like a bit of chisme!
🌪️ When to whip it out
When revealing unexpected info:
Resulta que sí me habían depositado.
Turns out they HAD deposited the money.
… y resulta que era su ex.
… and it turns out it was her ex.
