值得注意的是……
Reach for this when you're writing or talking about something and you want to flag a specific point as deserving extra attention — 'it's worth noting that...' or 'notably...'. It works as a stand-alone discourse marker at the start of a sentence, pulling the reader's focus to whatever follows. Common in news, analysis, essays, business reports, and any opinionated commentary where you want to highlight a non-obvious fact.

值得注意的是，[POINT TO HIGHLIGHT]

How to Think About It
It's a written signpost, not a description of the speaker. Unlike 'I want to point out...' in English, 值得注意的是 stays impersonal — there's no subject. The point is presented as objectively worth noticing, which is why journalists and analysts love it. Drop it in spoken conversation and you sound like you're reading from a slideshow.

Common Mistake
Learners often add a subject like 我 or 我们 in front (我值得注意的是), copying English 'I want to note that'. The phrase is fixed and impersonal — no subject, just a comma, then the point.
我值得注意的是，价格已经上涨了。
