Ok, sorry guys for the digression but the one that gets me is the way the script-writers or directors or whoever uses names in the movies that they can't pronounce. I have watched two movies recently where the way they call the names were painfully outrageous. Ok, 'Adrian' was pronounce 'aa-drian', as in 'apple' by this guy while Ini-edo pronounced Juanita as simply 'J-u-a-nita' just the way its spelt. We all make mistakes and all but seriously, as professionals, I think they have a responsibility to find out the correct/acceptable pronounciations before using these names, otherwise, why not stick to our very own Tunde and Lekan and Titi and Sewa. At least we can all call those.

My take on how do you mean?

How do you mean the word "love" when you say "I love yoü"?
What do you mean by "I love you."
I think maybe when I do use 'How do you mean?' instead of 'What do you mean?' I'm hoping for an explanantion of the whole situation rather than just what perhaps a specific word or phrase might mean.
