among other things 除此之外

Usually, the phrase is used in the middle of a sentence to link two thoughts together. Another word one could use instead of the phrase would be, "also". For instance, " my grandson is a great basketball player, among other things, he is a nice guy. (or) My grandson is a great basketball player, also, he is a nice guy. At the end of a sentence, it leaves the listener to his own imagination," My grandson is a great basketball player, among other things.
