【主题】
From today we'll be starting learning some short sentences from hit American films which are ways of telling people you'll listen to them. This morning I would like to share one which means" I want to know something.". It's said before asking for information. Let's get it from a simple situational dialogue.

A : So, tell me. What kind of work do you do?
B : I work as a teacher in a high school.

【答疑解惑】
It is "So, tell me.". Here so is similar to saying in Chinese:来,来吧,那么,是啊,and so on. It's a conjunction which is used to introduce a comment or a question. So在此是个连词用于引出一个问题或者评论。For example: So, let's see. What do we need to take? 来吧,大家想想,我们需要带些什么?So, what have you been doing today? 那么你今天都干了些什么?“So, tell me.”is like saying in Chinese:来吧,说说看;那么,说话看;是啊,说说看,something like those above. We also can say it as :"So, tell me something." If we are eager to know some information, we could say it as "Do tell ." or "Do tell me something.". 如果我们急切地想知道那样东西,我们可以说:“Do tell.”。意思是:快给我说说,快讲呀。Do 在这里是助动词,起到加强语气的作用。For example: Report has it that it's very interesting, do tell.据说那非常有趣,快说说看。
