that's what it means. it's an adverb. get it right.
it's in every freaking thread, and it's always wrong.
you probably speak one language (English) for crying out loud, at least learn to how to express yourself adequately in it.

The one that s me more is when people say "I could care less" instead of "I couldn't care less".. it makes no sense.

and what not
and what have you
those are good ones. I remember this ho went away for school in vancouver for cosmetology and came back a year later thinking she was highly educated, and kept saying what not and what have you after everything she said. a ho is a ho. you paid for school but you cant buy class.

Basically, I've never had a problem with the expression "so to speak" per se in English, ergo I think it is still fair game vis-a-vis the epic amount of Latin expressions used nowadays by educated speakers and what have you.
I can't find a vacant spot to add "if you will" in the above paragraph :( :p
