It would be Que dijo usted?? and means what did you said?

Hope it helps =)

The only one who got it right is justasking.

It really is out of context. Example, if you ask:

¿Escuchó su amigo lo que Usted dijo?

means: Did your friend listen to what you said?

If it really is not taken out of context then the construction is incorrect, needing to be “¿Qué dijo Usted?” meaning: “What did you say?”.

Note the difference in the tilde used in the word “Que” as they have different meaning.

The question you asked should be written: que dijo usted? It means: what did you say.Usted means you, but in a formal way. You don´t know that person so well and don´t use the person´s first name. Hope I could help you.

Hi!

It means: “…what you said?”

But actually it is missing a part.

If we are speaking about a question, you could say: “¿…lo que Ud. dijo?” (the “que” alone does not make much sense). And, even with the “lo” you would have to add the pronoun for the question: “¿Qué fue lo que Ud. dijo?” (“What was it you said?”)

If you mean to ask a question using just the words in your post, it would have to be: “¿Qué dijo Ud.?” which means “What did you say?”

Remember that “QUE” is different form “QUÉ”. The second one (with the accent) is used as a question or admiration pronoun. The other one is conditional.

Also, don’t forget to open your question marks in Spanish!

Goodluck!

Sorry, but it makes no sense. el hombre de que su madre dijo = the man whom your mother said usted ausentarse = you (formal) made yourself absent as you can see, it makes no sense.

Could it mean this? ‘el hombre del cual su madre le dijo a usted ausentarse’ ‘The man who your mother told you she left’. It is a bit complicate to undestand, try giving more information about the context.

que dijo usted? is how to say it and it is the professional way to ask what did you say?

or what did he say

It’s a strange construction -I think Cubans speak like that- but anyway, it means “What did you say?”
