| Mar 17, 2021 at 16:31 | comment | added | Edwin Ashworth | 'This reminds me of the Victorian era' must if uttered nowadays be shorthand for 'This reminds me of something I know about the Victorian era', corresponding to what Ram says. It is a well-established practice, totally unremarkable except where confusion might occur (or when a literalist or prankster wishes to inject a gripe / joke). | |
| Mar 17, 2021 at 16:05 | comment | added | Ram Pillai | Possibly, it could be, "This reminds me of what I have read/ heard of/ seen in the movie..." | |
