What does te lo juro mean?

ExpressionColoquial

I swear

It insists that something is true when the other person is not quite buying it. There is nothing solemn about it: it is said constantly and nobody is swearing to anything. Its more emphatic relative is te lo juro por lo que quieras.

Te lo juro, no me lo estoy inventando.

Insistence, in the face of visible doubt.
