Ans: Politely ask said referee if they would explain their interpretation of the call. Listen, don't interupt or argue, this would only get the hairs on the neck to stand upright. Once explanation is delivered (if referee decides they want to) Thank them and move on.
If you still don't understand the interpretation then go to the League Admin. for further explanation. Once again Thank them for their time.
All I can say is Arguing and complaining to an Official during a game will not get anyone anywhere. In the words of Dr Phil, "How has it worked for Ya up till now?"
Perhaps my answer is a little tongue in cheek, but this would sure be a nice change.
