What Do You Mean

What do you mean?

Sometimes native English speakers inadvertently use imaginative phrasing or colloquial language which makes it difficult for non-native English speakers to understand.

So if anyone finds it hard to understand something, please feel free to ask, "What do you mean?" To help make it relatively painless, this page is created with an alias WDYM, which is an acronym for "What do you mean?". Just add a line:

WDYM?

or inline text (WDYM?) as a signal to request for further clarification.
