    “mean” refers to “meaning”, as in the definition, or understanding.

    It is similar in use to ie, (id est, or that is). An explanation.

    “Say” makes no sense in this context. Say is stating something, but he isn’t stating, he is explaining.

        It’s a very common English idiom to start a sentence that way. Are you ignorant?

        I mean a lot of people do actually speak like this where I live. It’s a pretty regular way to start a sentence. No need to be rude…know what I mean?
