| When someone told me that I misunderstood him/her what should I say: a) Sorry, I misunderstood you. b) Sorry for my misunderstanding. c) Sorry to have misunderstood you. d) Sorry to have got you wrong. e) Sorry that I got you wrong. f) Sorry, I misunderstood what you meant. g) Sorry, I misunderstood that you … If any of these are not accepted as standard spoken English and never used by English native speakers please kindly pick them out (so that I can avoid using them in future). Also, Is there a better way to express the same meaning in this situation? Thank you very much in advance for your kind help. Anne |

| I think once we didn't understand you...... we can say: sorry, i am not getting you...... or i didn't got you( past) sorry for my misunderstanding. |

| I wouldn't use b). The others are all OK. It would depend on the formality of the situation and how serious a problem had arisen from not understanding them. Things like 'I didn't get what you meant' would be less formal. |
