    أعلم أنك تعتقد أنك فهمت ما تعتقد أني قلته ، لكني لست متأكدًا من أنك تدرك أن ما سمعته ليس ما قصدته.

    Ich weiß, dass du glaubst, dass du verstanden hast, was du denkst, dass ich gesagt habe, aber ich bin nicht sicher, ob du erkennst, dass das, was du gehört hast, nicht das ist, was ich gemeint habe.

    Sé que crees que entendiste lo que crees que dije, pero no estoy seguro de que te des cuenta de que lo que escuchaste no es lo que quise decir.

    Je sais que vous pensez avoir compris ce que vous pensez que j'ai dit, mais je ne suis pas sûr que vous vous rendiez compte que ce que vous avez entendu n'est pas ce que je voulais dire.

    私はあなたがあなたが私が言ったと思うことをあなたが理解したと信じていることを知っていますが、あなたが聞いたことが私が意味したものではないことに気づいているとは思えません

    나는 당신이 당신이 생각한 것을 이해했다고 믿지만, 당신이들은 것이 내 뜻이 아니라는 것을 확신하지 못합니다.

    ฉันรู้ว่าคุณเชื่อว่าคุณเข้าใจสิ่งที่คุณคิดว่าฉันพูด แต่ฉันไม่แน่ใจว่าคุณรู้ว่าสิ่งที่คุณได้ยินไม่ใช่สิ่งที่ฉันหมายถึง

    我知道您相信您理解我的想法,但是我不确定您是否意识到自己听到的不是我的意思。

    我知道您相信您理解我的想法,但是我不確定您是否意識到自己聽到的不是我的意思。
