Listen to the audio and answer the question below.
Anna doesn't completely agree with Bob. What should she say?
That's true, and I have no other opinion.
EN0e6ab0c5
Anna has a different view, so she wouldn't say she has no opinion.
Not necessarily.

Not necessarily is a polite way to express partial disagreement. Instead of directly saying no, it suggests that there might be other factors to consider. In conversations, this phrase helps keep discussions open and respectful. For example:
Person 1: I think upgrading the computer's processor will fix the issue.
Person 2: Not necessarily. The problem could be with the software, not the hardware. - This person is suggesting that upgrading the processor might not solve the problem because it could be caused by something else, like outdated software.
