Notes: The French expression au cas où is exactly equivalent to "(just) in case" in English. You can use it in front of a subject plus verb in the conditional, in which case its register is normal to formal. The more interesting - and informal - usage is when it's tacked on to the end of a sentence.
注释：法语表达au cas où和英语中的"(just) in case"是完全对等的。这个表达可用在主语前，动词用条件式，在这种情况下，语级是常用到正式的级别。更有趣的用法是用在句末，这个用法是非正式用法。
