Are you "seriously" a cop? Are you "really" a cop?

Simple things are hard. Lo fácil es difícil.

My attempts. Mis intentos.

Are you seriously a cop? There's no way to use "serio" is there (like estás serio que) unless you said "hablas en serio que"? Right?

Are you really a cop? ¿De verdad que eres policía?

Better ways to say this?

Gracias

Don't count on it. I am just using my best judgement on limited knowledge! - kmaakheru, Dec 8, 2011
That's it! But use a comma. "Eres un policía, ¿en serio? - chileno, Dec 8, 2011

"Serio" works, but it´s more natural at the end of the sentence, ie ¿Eres policía en serio?

You can also say "¿Eres policía de veras?" "Eres policía de verdad?" "¿De veras, eres policía?" etc.

I'd say: "¿En serio eres policía?" - meaning Are you *really* a cop? - Gekkosan, Dec 9, 2011
