C'mon!

'C'mon' is an expression American English speakers use to try to encourage someone else to do something. It's short for 'Come on.' Most speakers say the abbreviated version unless they are in a more formal setting, or if they are angry and want to add emphasis to each word to show their frustration.

Examples:
-C'mon, Mom! Please?!

(Person is stuck in traffic behind a very slow car) -COME ON!
