Questions & Answers about Revísalo bien; no es muy genuino que digamos.
What exactly does que digamos add to this sentence, and why is it in the subjunctive?
Que digamos literally translates to "that we might say," using the nosotros subjunctive form of decir. It is a fixed expression used to soften a negative statement or add a bit of irony. In English, it translates best to "exactly" (as in, "it isn't exactly genuine") or "to say the least."
Can I use que digamos with positive statements too?
Why is there an accent mark on Revísalo?
The command form for tú is revisa, which naturally has the stress on the second-to-last syllable (vi). When you attach the object pronoun lo to the end, the word gains an extra syllable. To keep the pronunciation stress on the original vi syllable (which is now the third-to-last), you must add a written accent mark.
I've heard people say checar or chequear for "to check". Could I use those here instead of revisar?
