Stop doing that · Stop it · Knock it off
This is your go-to phrase when someone is doing something annoying, playful, or just plain disruptive, and you want them to stop. Think of a friend making silly noises while you're trying to focus, or a sibling teasing you relentlessly. It’s a direct but often lighthearted command. 🤪
💡 **Pro Tip!** This expression is usually used in informal settings among friends, family, or close colleagues. It's quite direct, so using it with a stern tone can convey genuine annoyance, while a playful tone makes it more of a friendly reprimand. It's often accompanied by a gesture, like a 'stop' hand signal! ✋
Which situation is most appropriate for using 'Cut it out!'? A. 😄 When your friend tells a hilarious joke. B. 😤 When someone keeps poking you repeatedly. C. 🤗 When your pet gives you a warm hug.
