So far, Until now, Up to now Hello Everyone My question is: Is it possible to use "So far" at the beginning of the phrase? for example: So far he has been working as a teacher; I don't know which way is more polite, could someone explain me which way is more polite or useful? (Up to now, Sor far or Until now) And is it possible to use all this expressions at the beginnig of the phrase or only at the end? Thanks

They are all pretty much interchangeable. I don't think that one is much more formal than another. Like an adverb phrase, you can put it at the beginning of the sentence with a comma or you can put it at the end of the sentence, or even in the middle. examples: He was working, up to now, at the bank. Until just now, he had a good job. I have had good luck with driving so far.

Hi Matheus, I just want to make sure you are aware that “so far” and “until now” don’t mean the same thing. Are you aware of the difference in meaning between these to sentences?: I have had good luck with driving so far. I have had good luck with driving until now.
