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".
