Dear Teachers,
Please help me to understand this phrase: stay in the loop.
I am looking forward to your reply.
Thank you very much!
With warmest regards,

It means to stay informed, to keep in contact with people so you always know what's going on. In the know is a similar phrase.
Apparently it means being part of a circle of individuals who pass information to each other or hold responsibility - so being out of the loop means you're excluded from that circle. You're on the outside and you don't know what's going on! I always assumed it was something to do with electrical wiring  |
