Context: There is no sentence only the phrase.

Can the phrase, ¨diciéndomelo¨ in Spanish translate to something like the following in English?

¨telling it to me¨

¨telling it for me¨

I think it would have to be prefixed with estar, Está diciéndomelo. He/she is telling it to me. Están diciéndomelo. They are telling itto me. etc.

Telling it to me it is.

Yes, some form of either "seguir, estar" usually preceeds it.

For example (the normal way that it is)

¿Estás diciéndomelo a mí?

You're telling it to me?

Ellos siguen diciéndomelo como si ya no lo sé

They continue telling it to me as if I don't already know it!

(I'm not sure about the last one, but that's the general idea.)
