Question about English (US)
How do you say this in English?
ちょっと何言ってるのかわからない。
This is what we say when we understand the meaning, but it is hard to understand what they are saying or we don't want to understand. This is, for example, what you might want to say when you see a headline like this: "A car thief threatened to call the police on a mom who left her child in the back seat of the car he stole"
