I rather like that, actually. "Is it actually true, what you're
about to answer to my question?" Or maybe "Fill in the blanks
with what you think fits, but then examine whether that really
makes the statement true or not." That's kind of an ahead-of-
time {ianai}, i.e., rather than expressing incredulity in the
statement, it implies a follow-up question to the one being
asked without really expressing an opinion.
