Trope clarification?

[soulexmod]

Hey, all -- it's come to my attention that there's a confusingly-worded trope in the tag set that I let slip through. If you either nominated or are requesting the trope "Saying Their Soulmate's Last Words", could you please clarify what you mean by this trope?

(On that token, if you're not sure what a trope means, I highly recommend you do not offer it. There are many other wonderful tropes in this tag set!)

My understanding of the trope is that, at some point in your life, you say your soulmate's dying words, but don't know it until the soulmate has died.

Oh, I see! Now that you mention it, I think I've heard of that one.

Others may have a different definition, but that's what I understand it as and how I'd use it for requests/offers.
