地道表达
toddle off
1. 解词释义
Toddle off中的toddle是指“摇摇晃晃地走，东倒西歪地走，小孩学走路时的蹒跚走步”。与副词off连用，表示“离开，临时离开，暂时离去”。相当于walk away或者是leave。还可以用做toddle along。
2. 拓展例句
e.g. I need to toddle off and rest up a little.
我需要离开然后休息一会儿。
e.g. It is a pity that we shall have to toddle off tomorrow.

e.g. Fee cast her no more than a passing glance before toddling 2 off.
