i am feeling confused about it, because if you just go to understand it from these words, i think this sentence is very coarse, but i friend told me that is meaning "love"...as same as you are my sweetheart, i am your honeybee |

It means "You are my woman, I am your man" though as you point out, it is not a term that everyone would be comfortable with. _________________ "Inside every old person is a young person wondering what happened."

I think it has a currency in a certain 'hip' stratum of American society. _________________ Native English teacher at Mister Micawber's |

thanks a lot to you all.
I spend five minutes to understand B's sentence, because i got a few problem in "THOUGH, TERM, THAT..." HAHAHA, after consider(or think?) hard, i understood it. " it means you are my woman, i am your man, but, as your words, it is not a good sentence, someone would not be comfortable with it" am i right? mr. micawber, i can not understand your sentence clear, can i understand it as some american likes that sentence??? or it is porpular in part of people.
thank you again. |

Yes, I think it is popular among some young people. Among rappers, for instance. _________________ Native English teacher at Mister Micawber's |

Thanks for your explanation, and I just learnt a new word from you, it is " among".
so how about my last sentence? I wrote " it is popular in part of people ", is it a correct using or wrong? |

What does "clingy" mean? | appropriate/noble/becoming |
