What is the colloquial Cantonese translation for "还真是"?

Question

A says: 他自从遇到车祸以后就不开车了。
B says: 还真是，我以为他不喜欢开车呢。

Answer 1

'还真是' here is similar to "It is actually true" in English (agree/affirm to A's statement)

In Cantonese, we would say "噉又係喎"

噉(this) | 又(also) | 係(true) | 喎(final particle: indicate 'agree/affirm')

Mandarin:

A: 他自从遇到车祸以后就不开车了。

B: 还真是，我以为他不喜欢开车呢。

Cantonese:

A: 佢自从遇到车祸之后就冇再楂車嘞。

B: 噉又係喎，我仲以为佢唔鐘意楂車㖭。

Answer 2

Answer 3

We say this when we don't think about something true in our daily life and suddenly, somebody around us mentioned it and we are like:" yeah! it is actually true! I never thought about it before!" Literally means: "It is actually true".
