Forgive my novice question but with 2-3-4 and J 10 9 what is the reply to cappelletti?

Over a Cappelletti 2 you bid 2, but over a (Landy) bid of 2 for the majors, you'd bid 2 asking partner to bid his better/longer major so that you're guaranteed a 5-3 fit (ie in case partner is 5-4).

Partner can also be 5521 or 5512, I will bid 3 to show I have double fit, but little less, he might judge enouh or not.
