可以说,她做得很棒 (It can be said that she did a great job.)
Grammar & Usage
How it works
The phrase "可以说" (kěyǐ shuō) acts as a parenthetical or introductory clause, meaning "it can be said that" or "one could say that." It introduces a statement or opinion, often softening it or presenting it as a generally accepted view. The structure following it is a complete sentence (她做得很棒), making the entire phrase a complex sentence with an introductory clause.
