pray tell
Where it comes from
From pray (“ask (politely)”) + tell (“explain”).
interjection
- Please explain (something the requester does not yet understand). Pray tell us, how will they fare while you are away?
- Expressing incredulity, please explain (some claim or position the speaker doubts). But how, pray tell, do you "notice" something that happens when you're asleep?
