say it again

Ask for repetition

Say it again is a request for repetition, used when you didn't hear or understand something: Say it again? I missed that.

It also expresses emphatic agreement—an invitation to repeat something you found satisfying or true: Say it again! Preach!

The phrase can carry flirtatious or appreciative overtones: Say it again, I like hearing you say my name.
