Deborah,

This doesn �t have much syntactic coherence as it stands. What �s the context? Where did you find it?

Sorry, but it is a non-sence. Where is it from?

That is not a sentence and doesn �t make any sense.

I �ve "googled" the phrase and it appears several times, mainly in blogs. It also appears as "how am I must do?" . So, I think... it means " How should I do it? " or , in the case of the phrase Deborah posted it may mean" Should I do ...?  

I hope this helps  :)

Anyway, I agree with Alex, it hasn �t got much syntactic coherence.

"Isn �t enough try to do this the whole day because of you? now, am i must do this on my facebook too? OWWWW, YOU ARE REALLY MY NUMBER ONE! I LOVE SO MUCH TO DO THAT!"
 
This sentence isn �t written properly and hasn �t been written by a native speaker.
The correct sentence should be:
 
It �s not enough, I �ve tried to do this all day long because of you. Now I must do it on my facebook too! OWWWW, YOU ARE REALLY MY NUMBER ONE! I LOVE DOING THAT SO MUCH !

Of course it wasn�t written by a native speaker. I got it from a facebook page and it sounds so strange. I�ve never heard it before.
So I intended to ask for responses to my native English friends.

I�ve also tried to search for it in the google tool and I found this expression (if we can call it an expression!) in many blogs and small sites.

Thanks for your interest.

And if a blogger reads it, please explain! We are waiting for the answers...

My opinion is forget about it.  Personally, I have never seen or heard that expression.  It doesn �t make sense and it isn �t something someone would teach in a school.  Perhaps it �s a typo.

Hi,

The person was probably just being silly and wanted something that rhymes. I think they want it to mean "Do I have to do that?"

Other than that, I fully agree with the others.

Regards
