| Jun 26, 2017 at 18:52 | comment | added | Lambie | You are translating: Get ready to [whatever], right? The best way to say that is merely: Attention ! [Then you say your piece]. Guess what is: Tu sais quoi? Figurez-vous is not guess what. Tenez-vous bien sounds like earth-shattering news is about to be delivered.... | |
