Exploring Italian 4

In the dialogue Anna and Lisa spoke about their evening. Anna said:
Anna: Ma dai Lisa! Usciamo un po! Non hai 90 anni!
The expression Ma dai is often used in Italian conversation to say : you're not
convincing me. You can even just say dai.
.
Other expressions with similar meaning are :
Ma veramente?
Davvero
Non ci credo
Addirittura

(Are you serious?)

(Really?)
(I cant believe it!)
(Really?)

Look at these examples.

Anna: Make parla russo. (Mike speaks Russian.)

Lisa: Davvero?
(Really?)

Mike: Lisa non viene con noi questa sera. (Lisa is not coming with us this
evening .)
Anna: Ma veramente? (Are you serious?)

PLEASE NOTE: People usually smile when they use these expressions.
