The verb Means
Hi teachers,
Baxter’s chief is nodding his head means Baxter’s chief is moving his head up and down.
Is it correct to use "MEANS" or is there another verb to explain the meaning of the sentence?
Thanks in advance

"Baxter's chief is nodding his head" means Baxter's chief is moving his head up and down.
