Hi guys 👋, Is "You are really beautiful" similar to "You really are beautiful"? Thank you.

Both are correct, but they have different meanings. English is full of wonderful subtleties! You are really beautiful. (‘Really’ is just an intensifier. It means ‘You are very beautiful’) You really are beautiful. (Here ‘really’ confirms that the statement is true. It’s real, not pretend) An example: A to B: You’re beautiful. B to A: You’re just saying that to make me feel better. I’ve never been good-looking. A to B. No, I’m not. You really are beautiful. The ‘really’ here is to emphasize the truth of the statement.
