Q: Can you clarify the question?

Q: What do you mean by X?

Q: Define X.

A: I usually will not do this.

I try to use English idioms as clearly as possible.

Sometimes the questions I ask apply in multiple scenarios or in different ways.

Exploring those possibilities is part of why I ask.

Over-specifying the terms would leave out some of these connotations and make it harder for some people to connect with the poll.

I also find the process of specifying terms to be exhausting.
