Ainsi...que like this

"It's by working this way that you'll succeed." Is there any way other than "ainsi"..."que" to say "like this"? Could one say "comme ça" or "comme ceci"? Just curious!

This question relates to:French lesson "Ainsi que = as well as, just as vs the way that in French"

Hi Marnie,

Yes , you can use 'comme ça' for 'ainsi' in the sentence you mention . It is less elegant but absolutely fine in everyday language...
