How smart people say "I already told you"

For a polite reminder, say "As I mentioned before" or "As we discussed." Then repeat the information calmly. Save "We went over this" for people you know well, and say it kindly. "I already told you" is clear, but it can sound annoyed, so the softer lines are safer at work.

표현별 설명

But as I mentioned before. 어감: Soft and polite

Use it in work emails and chats when you need to repeat something you said earlier. Follow it with the information itself. It may sound too formal with close friends.

“But as I mentioned before, that's been around for twenty years.”

영화 속 표현: UFOs: Declassified LIVE (2021)
As we discussed. 어감: Calm and professional

Use it after a meeting or call to remind someone what you both agreed. It's common at the start of a follow-up email. Only use it if the talk really happened.

“Obviously, as we discussed, we have a serious security leak.”

영화 속 표현: The Dallas Connection (1994)
We went over this. 어감: Firm, a little tired

Use it with family, friends, or close coworkers when you have already explained something. Say it kindly, or it sounds annoyed. Avoid it with a boss or a client.

“Dad, we went over this.”

영화 속 표현: The Curse of Bridge Hollow (2022)
As I said earlier. 어감: Neutral and clear

Use it in a meeting or conversation when you said something a short time ago. It's a little more direct than "As I mentioned before."
Just a quick reminder. 어감: Friendly and light

Use it when you repeat information without suggesting that the other person forgot. It works well in group messages. It doesn't work if you sound angry when you say it.
Just to recap. 어감: Organized and neutral

Use it at the end of a meeting or a long message to repeat the main points. It sounds helpful, not critical, because it repeats the points for everyone.

자주 하는 실수

어색한 표현 ~~But as I mentioned before.~~

더 자연스러운 표현 But as I mentioned before, the meeting starts at ten.

In real use, this phrase starts a sentence. The film line is a short excerpt of a longer sentence. Always add the information you're repeating after the comma.
어색한 표현 ~~As we discussed about the budget, we need to cut costs.~~

더 자연스러운 표현 As we discussed, we need to cut the budget.

The verb discuss takes a direct object, so you don't need "about." Say "we discussed the budget," not "we discussed about the budget."
어색한 표현 ~~I already told you! The file is in the folder.~~

더 자연스러운 표현 As I mentioned before, the file is in the shared folder.

"I already told you" can sound annoyed, especially with an exclamation mark. At work, a softer phrase gives the same reminder without blame.
