It's roughly morally equivalent to

    object.method(arg1, withSomething = arg2, withSomethingElse = arg3)

But there are several reasons why it's not really equivalent
to that. PyObjC actually maps it to

    object.method_withSomething_withSomethingElse_(arg1, arg2, arg3)

which is very close to what Objective C is doing under the hood.
