Quick question

Hi, is it true to say:
(I just saw you picture now)
Also if you have other suggestions which can give the same meaning, please let me know.
  

Top answer

Don't you mean is it correct to say, rather than is it true to say? Whether or not it is true to say something means we would have to judge whether or not the speaker actually saw a picture of the other person or not. If you mean is it correct to say, the sentence should read: I just saw your picture.

  • There is no need for "now," as "just" carries that same connotation.
  • It would be "your" picture, not "you" picture.
