Question
I've come across the word мол quite a few times but I'm still not entirely sure how to use it. I'd be grateful if you could help.
Many thanks
Answer
Hi John,
Мол means "in somebody else's opinion", "according to somebody's words". For example,
Он говорит, что, мол, знает, в чём дело. He says that in his opinion he knows what to do.
