What do you say when you don't understand someone?

[Dood]

Example: "Pardon me?" or "excuse me"?

 

[FrontlineWarrior]

jigga what?

 

[pulse8]

I'm sorry?

 

[silverpig]

No engrish

 

[schdaddy]

depends on the person & stituation but most of the time I just say "What?"


.... almost forgot, sometimes I say "Come Again" just to screw with people

 

[FrontlineWarrior]

Sorry I don't follow

 

[FrontlineWarrior]

or give the same face you make when you soil your pants...

 

[Dood]

In the south they say "Do What???"....that irritates the hell out of me. I didn't ask you to DO anything?!?!?!?

 

[Electric Amish]

Do you understand the words that are coming out of my mouth??

amish

 

[dullard]

I simply say, "What?". I wouldn't suggest that other people use that though. Far too often I get blamed for bad hearing when I say it. I wish I could change to something like "Pardon me?", but it is an instinct - the word comes out of my mouth before I have time to think of something better to say.

 

[guyver01]

WTF DID YOU SAY? WAS THAT EVEN ENGLISH? SH#&!

 

[falconx80]

F-YOU MOFO!!!!!!!!! HEHEHheheheheh

 

[gopunk]

<< I'm sorry? >>



yup i say that if i'm at work...

if it's just friends i'll say "huh?"

 

[silverpig]

No engrish = [chinese accent]No english[/chinese accent]




It was a joke. I'm not chinese, and English is my first language.

Seriously now, it depends. I switch between huh? Sorry? Pardon? and WTF?

 

[Egrimm]

I'm sorry?
Or, as the similar thing would be in danish: Undskyld? (=sorry? We don't use the jeg=I in front normally)

 

[NuclearFusi0n]

"come again?"

 

[Schadenfreude]

I usually smack them upside the head and unleash my almighty vengeance on them, and threaten to unleash the plagues unless they clarify themselves, while doing all sorts of nasty things on them.

Or I just say "what?"

 

[ravanux]

i just say excuse me

 

[jjones]

Usually, "What the hell are you talking about?"

 

[DCFife]

"Your what hurts?"

- Dave

 

[bozo1]

"say that again"

 

[Radiohead]

"I'm sorry, I don't understand a single word you're saying" or "Whatchu talking 'bout Willis"

 

[monk3y]

A quick "WHAT?!?!" usually works for me

 

[yoyo25]

If it is not improtant...i am like "right...blah blah" changing the subject

If i must know..."i am sorry..missed that, can you say it again"

If i have no idea what the person is say..."I dont understand..sorry"

 

[chibchakan]

Huh ?
