Idiom or context?

Hello to everybody!

I was wondering if the phrase "i have no frame of graft" is a fixed expression that has an exact definition or it depends on the context?

Thanks in advance

Hi, It's not a fixed expression, and it just seems like nonsense. In what context did you find this? Did you perhaps mishear the words?

Actually, i came across this in the script of Friends sitcom.The situation was like this: Two people did something that seems wrong and one of them says that "okay i have no frame of graft, but I thought that was great".
May it be just any kind of joke or metaphor?

That was a mistaken transcription. It's "frame of reference".

The expression "frame of reference" is most likely the one that should be used in that situation i'm talking about. But i can't understand anyway why would they use that "frame of graft" expression. Thanks very much CJ, you helped me anyway.
