What do you mean they are our replacements?
这句话是不是不对,they are our replacements为什么直接放在了mean后面,它是什么成分?另外这个句子可以加by吗?
What do you mean they are our replacements?
这个句子语法不正确,但已经被人们所认可,应该看作正确的表达。其实,它看作是省略了 when you say 或 by saying:
What do you mean (when you say)they are our replacements?
What do you mean (by saying)they are our replacements?
又如:
What do you mean you can't do it? It'll be like shooting fish in a barrel!
你说干不了是什么意思?这不是小事一桩嘛!
《牛津词典》
What do you mean your mother is coming to stay for a week?
你说你妈妈要来住一个星期是什么意思?
What do you mean it doesn't feel right? 你说觉得不对劲是什么意思?
【注】这个问题,还可以换一种思路去理解,即: mean 接双宾语。就是说,mean 赋予给宾语从句什么意思。宾语从句为间接宾语,what 为直接宾语。这样处理,语法上就讲得通。
