Hi,
What would the word (s) possibly be before people make a correction?
For example:
1. I ran 5,000 kilometers today, oh sorry, () 5,000 km (), it should be 5,000 meters. haha...
2. I spent 2,000 yuan for that laptop, oh, () 2,000 yuan (), should be 2,000 dollars...
I know English should also have the same colloquial expression, please kindly advise, I have no idea the position of the missing words, so i put brackets before or after the key words.
(of course "not ..." is definitely not the anwser I'd like to hear)
Thanks!
