What does jy ook mean in English?

"Jy ook" in Afrikaans literally translates to "You too" in English.

It's used in a similar way to the English phrase, expressing that something applies to the listener as well.

For example:

* Afrikaans: "Ek is moeg." "Jy ook?"

* English: "I'm tired." "You too?"
