Contrary to popular misconception, "mano a mano" does not mean 'man to man.' It is a Spanish phrase literally translated as 'hand-to-hand,' usually used in the context of combat or competition. In English, many people incorrectly use the expression "[to] talk mano a mano" to mean "[to] talk one-on-one." But it really means something more like "[to] go head-to-head."
