"how do you mean?" wth?!! How do you mean what?!! what happened to "what do you mean?"

Now, how's this wrong? how do you mean?

Dis Guy:

I think this is correct when you are explaining a particular procedure/process

Hospirall = hospital = popularised by Saidi Balogun nigerian actor

No, I mean saying "how do u mean" in a "what do you mean" situation.

It all depends on how the speaker sees the situation, if (s)he sees the situation as "how" instead of "what" while the listner sees the situation as "what" instead of "how" then there would be misunderstanding.

For example,

Mr. A: Your not wearing your belt properly
Mr. B: How do you mean

Mr B. sees the situation as "how" as he does not see anyhow else someone could wear a belt if not it going through all the belt holes.

Another Example,

Mr C: Your not wearing your belt properly
Mr D: What do you mean

Maybe Mr D can not see all his belt holes but think he might have missed one, so he says "what" to be pointed in the right direction.

@ topic

1- Every two two years instead of Every two years

2- Just only one instead of Just one or Only one

3- One year anniversary instead of one year (celebrations) or First anniversary

4- What are u trying to insinuate instead of What are u insinuating or What are u trying to say

1. You mean myself? rather than Are you talking or referring to me?

2. Moks rather than Mosque (Mosk)

3. Our Two rather than Both of us

I swear i have never laughed as much as I just did in my life. This thread is off the hook! kudos to the person who started it.

I remember right after i got married, my husband while cooking, cut himself pretty bad, and me being a typical Nigerian, immediately started saying "sorry sorry" . He looked at me like i was crazy and said "why the heck r u apologizing? u didn't cut me! and i told him, well, where i come from, if anybody hurts themselves, we always say "sorry" to them to help ease the pain! He then said, well here in America, we laugh our arses off! so now, even if he is bleeding to death I my butt off and keep my

noticed this too, when i say im stressed or tired i get ahhh sorry sorry, so annoying!

I think its psychological- someone saying sorry is like a sympathetic ulterance
whilst laughing your A*** is morel ikely to increase your adrenaline or at least make your laugh too even if you are bleeding your heart out 

na my own explanation be that o,

Spare the rod, spoil the child- after beating the living daylights out of some defenceless kid

it is even in the bible!!  or you get 'the bible says' to almost everthing!!

I want a God-fearing partner , _{no wonder you are drinking Martel with red bull}

If u talk nonsense now i will [b]flog [/b]u!
Don't allow me to [b]flog [/b]you this night!!
Ha, Lord have mercy o!
Y are u laughing like a jacka**
