Hi Vireak! Usually, "ramifications" implies complex, often unwelcome consequences. If you want to highlight a purely positive outcome in a business report, it is better to use "benefits" or "positive impacts". 📉

Is "notwithstanding" used at the beginning or the end of a sentence?

It can actually be used as a preposition before a noun ("Notwithstanding the budget cuts, we succeeded") OR as an adverb at the end ("We succeeded, the budget cuts notwithstanding"). It is a very flexible C1 word! 🏗️

If I am writing marketing materials for a tour, should I use "henceforth"?

Probably not! "Henceforth" is highly formal and best suited for legal contracts or strict policy updates. For engaging marketing copy, it is better to use friendlier terms like "From now on" or "Moving forward". Tone matters just as much as structure! 📝
