No, that would be "le darlu ki'a". By putting the clarification question on the "le" word indicating "in-mindedness", I am saying that I DON'T know which one is in-mind and need more information

But what came out after I posed that answer is that there are two "which" questions. One is "which did you intend", which is a "please clarify" sort of thing, and the other is a "what alternatives shall we choose in le pu'o decision".
