hereby or thereby
Hi,
In the story "A Cleaner Corporation (Scene 3 of 4)" i "stumbled" (thanks to correct me, if the verb is not the good one) bewteen two terms
'hereby' or 'thereby'
In the explanations :
-The term 'thereby' refers to an action which is distant in time or space. It means 'by that document' or 'as a result of that letter'. Since Luna is writing her own letter, we need the closer term: 'hereby'.
-'Hereby' is the best choice here. This little word means 'by this document' or 'as a result of this letter'. Luna is saying that her letter serves as notice that the contract between Delavigne and the cleaning company has been ended. Another example: 'I hereby resign from my job at this company'.
Luna DeLune wrote her letter to the cleaning compagny
It is therefore my obligation to inform you that the contract between our two companies is hereby terminated
I think i understand 'hereby' in this context
But i'm sorry, i don't understand very well how to use 'thereby'
Could you give me a concret example?
Thanks in advance.
Regards
