Iya, sorya 2013/5/29 14:25
Hello! Can someone help me with the meaning of this?

"いや、そりゃそーなんだけどね。"

I guess sorya is 'sore wa', it could be? Anyways, I'm not sure and I would like to know what is the whole sentence meaning.
Thanks.

Hi!(^-^)/
Right, "sorya" is "sore wa".
いえ、それ は そう(なの)です けれども ね in polite phrase.
It means "Well, that's so as you said, BUT..." or something.
It's a way of euphemism that Japanese often say for objection,
the speaker wants to refute his opponent's.
