Don't get me wrong ?
Message de Josss posté le 17-06-2005 à 12:21:37 (S | E | F | I)
Hi there !
I've got a quick question, I was wondering in what context you could use this expression : "Don't get me wrong".
If I say for example "I see what you mean but don't get me wrong, what I meant was ....... and not ......". Am I right here ?
Is it rude to use this expression or quite casual ?
Thanks in advance to everybody.
Joss.

"Don't get me wrong" means "Don't misunderstand me." You can well use it in any situation.

You're quite
! And I forgot to mention that your example would be a perfect
use of this phrase!
While we're on the subject, might I recommend the awesome song
Don't Get Me Wrong by The Pretenders!
