つもりat the beggining of the phrase

[mitsou57]

can anyone help me for the meaning of tsumori in this particular case?
for exemple:
私の姉の娘、つもりめいは来月中国に留学するそうだ
つもり、職業は男女の区別が少なくなってきているのだ
I'me a little confused about that!
thank you and have a nice day

You are confusing つもり　with つまり (in other words).

積もり 【つもり】 (n) (1) (uk) intention; plan; (2) conviction; belief;

詰まり(P); 詰り 【つまり】 (adv,n) (uk) in short; in brief; in other words; that is to say; in the long run; after all; blockade; stuffing; ultimate;
