إجابة مختصرة
Speak of the devil: what to say when someone arrives
When someone walks in just as you're talking about them, say "Speak of the devil." It's playful and a little teasing. For a warmer greeting, say "Look who it is." To be open about it, say "We were just talking about you."

شرح كل عبارة
-
Look who it is. نبرة الكلام: Warm and friendly
Use it when a friend or someone you know appears, especially if you're happy to see them. It doesn't mean you were talking about the person, so it works for any friendly arrival.
“Look who it is.”
-
Speak of the devil. نبرة الكلام: Playful, a bit teasing
Say it as the person arrives, right after you've mentioned them. It's a joke between people who know each other. Avoid it with a new boss or in a formal meeting, because "devil" can sound rude to someone who doesn't know the idiom.
“Speak of the devil.”
-
We were just talking about you. نبرة الكلام: Honest and direct
Use it when you want to be open and tell the person they were the topic. It's best when you said something nice, because the next question will often be "What did you say?"
“Hey. We were just talking about you.”
-
There you are. نبرة الكلام: Relieved, friendly
Use it when you were waiting for or looking for someone and they finally appear. Don't use it for someone you weren't expecting.
-
Your ears must be burning. نبرة الكلام: Light, teasing
Say it to someone who arrives after people were talking about them. It's a fun way to say "we mentioned you." It works best in relaxed, friendly groups.
-
Perfect timing. نبرة الكلام: Cheerful, casual
Use it when someone arrives at exactly the right moment, for example just as you need them. You can use it whether or not you were talking about them.
أخطاء شائعة
-
صياغة غير دقيقة
Speak about the devil.صياغة أفضل Speak of the devil.
An idiom has a fixed form. People say "speak of the devil," not "speak about." You can also say just the first part and leave out the rest.
-
صياغة غير دقيقة
Saying "Speak of the devil" to a new manager at work.صياغة أفضل Say "We were just saying your name" or "Perfect timing."
"Speak of the devil" is a friendly joke, but the word "devil" can sound rude to someone who doesn't know you well or doesn't know the idiom.
-
صياغة غير دقيقة
We just talked about you. (when the person walks in mid-conversation)صياغة أفضل We were just talking about you.
The past continuous "were talking" shows that the conversation was still going on when the person arrived. That's the natural form here.
