Phrase of the Day (that's a big if)-29AUG21

Today’s “Phrase of the Day” is that’s a big if and it is a phrase meaning “used to say that something is unlikely to happen/occur; uncertain, doubtful, dubious, remote”.

Example Sentence: The government may set up an Asset Monetisation Monitoring Authority staffed by competent professionals. The authority must put all aspects of monetisation under the scanner — valuation, the impact on price charged to the consumer, monetisation of under-utilised versus well-utilised assets, the experience across different sectors, etc. — and document the lessons learnt. Asset monetisation is fine if executed properly — and that is always a big ‘if’.

This phrase is present in The Hindu article Asset monetisation — execution is the key and click here to read it.
