You can say that again.

Posted by Grace on November 16, 2010
When someone says that you can say that again that does not means you have to say it twice, it means he/she (or they) agree(s) with you completely.Example:Anne: I think EC is a good place for studying English.Grace: You can say that again. It is a place not only for learning English but also making many friends from around the world.PS: The other way to say 'I agree with you' is ' I'll say ', but you can't say ' I will say.'The above is what I learned from my English class today. Hope it is useful.

    Skoony: My English is improving with my friends in MyEC. They are great.
    Dreamy: You can say that again. I've learned many things from them too.
    Skoony: Where did you learn this phrase "You can say that again"?
    Dreamy: From Collection of Phrases's group. It's helpful to me.
    Skoony: I'll say that, Dreamy!

    Thanks Grace. It's a useful phrase!
    Special Thanks to Frank DiSalle for correcting our mistakes.

      Your example is very good. I like it. There are some grammatical mistakes I made that I feel a bit embarrassed about it. Luckily, we have a nice friend Frank to help to correct it.
      Now I notice where I have to pay attention to more. Thank you, Skoon.

      Our mistakes are our way to learn too. But we're lucky that we have a friend like Frank here to correct us. I hope he won't be annoyed about how much we mistake :)

    When someone says, "You can say that again," that does not mean you have to say it twice, it means he/she { or they } agree{s} with you completely.
