Let's cut to the chase. What does it mean to 'cut to the chase'? Today's idiom is 'cut to the chase.' So, let's get straight to it: if you cut to the chase, it means you skip straight to the main point, cutting out all the unnecessary details.

Let's look at a couple of example sentences:

Say you're in a meeting that's just going on and on. Somebody might say:

"We've spent a lot of time discussing different options, but let's cut to the chase. What's the final decision?"

Someone's telling you a long story about their vacation. You might say:

"I know you're excited to tell me all about your trip, but cut to the chase, did you have fun?" or,
"Maybe I could cut to the chase and ask you about a broader question."

You could use the phrase in an email. For example, you could write:

"To cut to the chase, I need your approval on the budget by tomorrow."

I hope that helps. Thanks for watching. See you next time.
