Неужто ??

I need help ! :o


What does Неужто means in:

'Мне очень любопытно знать.
Неужто ты влюблен в меньшую?'

As far as I know (but I`m not a native speaker), неужто is the same as неужели: it is an adverb and means "really, is it possible, indeed, can it be true?, is that so?".

Неужели я помогла тебе?

Your answer is correct. Просторечная форма неужели.

Here's the accent: неужто, неужели.

[неУшта]

ниушта. Не забудьте икания!

I think it'll be "и" if only you emphasize this word. I tried to say it several times and I guess it's more "e" then "и". I'm not sure though.

I'd say it's often something between "е" and "и".

Most of the time "и", at my place.
