你可以呀 (nĭ kĕyĭ ya) = you can 

If someone does something that exceeds your expectations, or that takes you by surprise, you can use 你可以呀 (nĭ kĕyĭ ya) in a manner that means "You are really something!" or "Amazing!" in Mandarin Chinese. 
________________________________________________
Teacher Ellie also introduces a popular Mandarin Chinese expression:

高富帅 (gāofùshuài) is three adjectives put together. In order: tall, rich and handsome. This kind of man is the ideal description of a boyfriend husband for a Chinese lady.

She will only accept 高富帅 (gāofùshuài)!? 你可以呀 (nĭ kĕyĭ ya)!
________________________________________________

You can also omit the 呀 (ya) when saying "You are really something!" and just simply say 你可以 (nĭ kĕyĭ). 

...so, remember: when you want to praise someone, or when you want to laugh at someone who has done something silly, you can use 你可以呀 (nĭ kĕyĭ ya) or 你可以 (nĭ kĕyĭ). It's helpful to know around friends!
