Wats the deal with ';if you know what i mean?';. if i dont know what you mean does it mean its not true

lets say,





';farmer johnsons daughters just pulled up in a jeep, and he knows how to grow'em if you know what i mean';





so if i do not know what you mean does that mean that he doesent know how to grow'em?





this statement doesent make 100 percent logical sense, if you know what i mean!Wats the deal with ';if you know what i mean?';. if i dont know what you mean does it mean its not true
i dont know what's the daelWats the deal with ';if you know what i mean?';. if i dont know what you mean does it mean its not true
people say it to try to assure themselves that what they are saying isnt completely wrong because they know down inside that it makes no sense
Your logic is flawed. If one asks ';if you know what I mean'; they wish to know if they are clear. If the message is unclear, that doesn't mean that the statement they tried to convey is therefore false.





(Incidentally, if you wish to communicate effectively and have people know what you mean, you could start by spelling correctly.)





In the example you gave and in other instances, the phrase ';if you know what I mean'; is used to imply an innuendo. The implication may not be obvious unless one added ';if you know what mean.';
no it doesnt it just means that you dont know what they mean, generally it is used to say something a person wouldnt want to flat out say so they say if you know what i mean.
The question is quite logical because people are saying things that may be taken in different ways. By adding ';if you know what I mean'; the speaker is asking you to understand the - often sly - double entendre (double meaning).
if you can't fill in the blanks you won't be filling in...


if you know what i mean.
--That line of speech--really makes me mad--and it is rude--i think-- you know what i mean
It means it may be true or it may not be true. It all depends on from person to person. But when a law is made then all has to abide by the law and the sentences is well understood by a lawyer. And when the lawyer is very efficient then he make it understand to the judge in such a way that the judge has to make decision in the favour of the lawyer.


So when a statement is made whether it is 100 percent logical or not is to be decided by the person to whom it is communicated. Because the law of communication says that what you speak is not communication but what other understand about your statement is what communication means. There are 10 commandants of good communication.
Haha like 'if you know what i mean ;) winkwinknudgenudge ;)'? :P loll


well i guess if you don't, then you ask!





technically it's a question


so


'if you know what i mean?;)'


'no , actually, i don't.'


'^o). Farmer Johnson's daughter is fit you idiot.'





so feel free to ask if you don't know what they mean in the future :P haha.

No the statement is true it's just that you don't know what he means. Like when you said it at the end, the statement didn't entirely make sense but even if i didn't ';know what you mean'; it still didn't make sense. Get it?!
Its just a figure of speech ya, no. Cause you got lot people our their osing a lot of bull. ya, no.
I know what cha mean...but that is just a figure of speech! Kinda like when someone says ';you know'; after every sentence!
In that example it would seem that ';if you know what I mean'; is used to suggest more than there is to be noticed at first sight.





Like, ';the boy and girl are not just friends, if you know what I mean.'; is implying that they are lovers.





or in your sentence it would seem that the Farmer's daughter is very attractive and the speaker is suggesting that the Farmer grows more than nice corn, if you know what I mean.


(ie his daughter grew up to be quite easy on the eyes.)





If you know what I mean can also be used more innocently when one wants to hear from their listener: ';I understand you'; or ';I empathize.';





But of course I get your funny about how if someone misses the sousentendu or takes the statement literally, there can be funny results.
