Meaning
उदाहरण के लिए, अगर कोई कहता है कि "मैंने अपनी परीक्षा में शीर्ष अंक प्राप्त किए हैं," तो सुनने वाला व्यक्ति कह सकता है «Are you telling me that you scored the highest marks?» इस स्थिति में, बोलने वाला व्यक्ति चौंक कर या पुष्टि के लिए पूछ रहा है कि क्या वास्तव में वह व्यक्ति सर्वोच्च अंक प्राप्त करने की बात कर रहा है।
यह वाक्यांश अक्सर तब भी प्रयोग होता है जब सुनने वाले को कोई बात अविश्वसनीय या अकल्पनीय लगती है। यह ध्यान देने वाली बात है कि «Are you telling me that» में एक प्रकार की भावनात्मक प्रतिक्रिया शामिल होती है, जो सुनने वाले की जिज्ञासा या संदेह को प्रकट करती है।
संक्षेप में, «Are you telling me that» का उपयोग तब होता है जब आप किसी बात की सच्चाई या विस्तार से पुष्टि करना चाहते हैं, खासकर जब वह बात अविश्वसनीय प्रतीत होती है।Today's Sentences
