Lesson D

Conversation strategy: ...a writer? really?

We use this structure to show interest

A: So, who is that?

B: That's my cousin, Sarah, she's a writer.

A: a writer? really?

B: Yes, she's quite famous.

Esta estructura es bastante sencilla, para mostrar interés en una conversación, simplemente hay que repetir la ultima cosa que una persona dice (si lo consideramos algo interesante o sorprendente) y lo hacemos pregunta, luego agregamos el Really? para enfatizar más aun la sorpresa y el interés o formulamos una pregunta nueva.

More examples: 

A: Where are you from?

B: I'm from France.

A: France? really? I Paris a nice city?

B: Yes, it is.

A: My co-workers are nice.

B: Really? what about your boss?

A: She's great. And she's not very strict.
