"I would like an update about you"

Anni (China) asks: What does "I would like an update about you" mean?

Mark says: "Update" means recent information. So, if someone asks you for an update about you, they want to know how you are recently. Another way of saying this is : "So tell me the latest about you"

Example (1) : Two people chat on the Internet after not chatting for a long time.

Person 1: I really miss you, I would be happy to get some updates about you.

Person 2: I really miss you too! Recently I have been so busy working on my new project....



Example (2) : Two people meet who have not seen each other in a long time.

Person 1: Hi! How are you? Long time no see!

Person 2: Its great to see you again, tell me the latest about you!
