Noted

means “I understand,” “I hear you,” or “I’ll remember that.”
 People use it when they receive information, advice, or even gentle criticism.

Examples:

1- At work, his manager said, “Remember to double-check the numbers next time.” He nodded and replied, “Noted.” A calm way of saying, “I understand.”

2-  He said, “I think you should sleep earlier.” She replied, “Noted.” Meaning: “I heard you… but let’s not discuss this.” So this tiny word carries a lot of meaning,  depending on how you say it.



Hello and welcome back to Daily English. Today’s expression is short, modern, and incredibly common in real-life English.
It’s “noted.” One more time: “noted.”

Listen to this: 

She asked her roommate,
 “Please don’t leave your dishes in the sink again.”
 Her roommate raised an eyebrow, smiled a little, and said, “Noted.”

What do you think this expression means? “Noted” means “I understand,” “I hear you,” or “I’ll remember that.”
 People use it when they receive information, advice, or even gentle criticism.

The meaning stays the same, but the tone changes everything: polite, neutral, playful, or slightly sarcastic.

Let’s listen to some examples: At work, his manager said, “Remember to double-check the numbers next time.”
 He nodded and replied, “Noted.” A calm way of saying, “I understand.”

Her friend told her, “You disappear when you’re overwhelmed.” She didn’t argue.
 She just took a breath and said, “Noted.” A soft, emotional way of saying she heard the truth in it.

He texted his sister, “You don’t call Mom enough.” She rolled her eyes, but she knew he was right. “Noted,” she replied — playful, but also a little honest.

And sometimes people use “noted”
 when they want to avoid an argument.

For example:
 He said, “I think you should sleep earlier.” She replied, “Noted.” Meaning: “I heard you… but let’s not discuss this.” So this tiny word carries a lot of meaning,  depending on how you say it.

 When was the last time someone said something to you, and you simply replied, “Noted”?
And how do you say noted in your mother tongue?

Thanks for listening to Daily English.
Have a beautiful day, and see you tomorrow
