Dr. Hsiung, I understand that the use of idioms have various meanings depending on local and time. The poster that used the idiom that I am requesting to you for a determination did not write what he/she thought to be the meaning of the idiom. It has been written here that one thinks that the useage of the idiom,[...take what someone says with a grain of salt...] could mean that what the person wrote could {not be taken seriously}.
Is that acceptable here then, to use the idiom if another here thinks that it could mean that what another wrote could not be taken seriously?
