The connector "this means" belongs to the group of explanation connectors and exemplification. It is used to introduce the clarification or reformulation of an idea. For example: Monday is a day off; this means that until Tuesday I won't be able to get the painting.
The connectors are the words or expressions that allow us to indicate a relationship between two sentences or statements. The use of connectors favors the reading and comprehension of texts since they provide coherence and cohesion.
Other explanation and exemplification connectors are: namely, thus, how to be, indeed, in other words, this means, for example, or.
