Guitar speak - please help

Anyone know what this means, sorry it's not obvious to me!

should be Fismi instead of Bm, Cismi instead of A

Thanks

Oh dear - there's no hope then is there . . .

This rang a distant bell in the dark recesses of my mind... I'd seen it before somewhere. Then I got it: "Fism" or "Fismi" is actually F#m; and "Cisimi" (by the same logic) is C#m. This seems to make sense in the context you mention too, as Bm & F#m can sometimes get mixed up with each other, and C#m & A are only one note different from each other. Hope this helps

Oh yes, sounds right - I though mi was probably Minor but as he'd used Bm it confused me.

Makes a lot of sense, thanks very much - might be easier to sing now I'm playing the right chords!
