To put all the dots together is also a common term, and it means to draw a conclusion from evidence. It all kicked in for me means to suddenly come to the correct conclusion. I've never heard fly gods grann before To tap in on means to decipher.

You can call it colloquial, but it is also polite English, and none of the ones I explained have a low register.

They are all idiomatic expressions, so would be less tolerated (even disapproved of by some) in formal writing.
All are commonly used in colloquial (informal, ordinary/common/familiar, conversational) speech. |
