Hints for this Quiz
You need a colloquial question that shows surprise without denying it.
“Echt jetzt?” is a very colloquial, surprised follow-up question. “Im Ernst?” also fits, but is more neutral. “Ach was!” is more like “No way!” (not a question), and “Quatsch!” rejects the claim.
Choose the option that fits office tone best.
“Im Ernst?” means “Seriously?” and is the safest neutral choice in a workplace context. “Echt jetzt?” is more slangy, “Quatsch!” is too blunt, and “Ach was!” is casual.
Pick the option that clearly rejects the statement.
“Quatsch!” is a direct contradiction (“Nonsense!”). The others express surprise or doubt but less direct disagreement.
Think about register: office-appropriate and neutral.
“Im Ernst?” is neutral and acceptable in more formal contexts. “Echt jetzt?”, “Ach was!” and “Quatsch!” are more colloquial or blunt.
You want warm surprise, not skepticism.
“Ach was!” expresses friendly astonishment without questioning truth. The others add doubt or are too strong.
Think one-to-one translation of the meaning, not the vibe.
“Im Ernst?” directly matches the meaning of “Seriously?”.
Choose the slangy one that shows annoyed surprise.
“Echt jetzt?” conveys colloquial, slightly annoyed surprise. “Im Ernst?” is more neutral; “Quatsch!” rejects; “Ach was!” is milder astonishment.
Pick the one that’s more like “No way!” (astonishment) without asking a question.
“Ach was!” signals astonished surprise with minimal doubt. “Im Ernst?” and “Echt jetzt?” question more, and “Quatsch!” rejects.
