释义:
give it to somebody straight 单刀直入地说
give it to somebody straight 表示“对某人单刀直入地说”。但如果没有 straight,单单是 give it to sb 的话就表示“给某人颜色看看”或“性行为”。但最常用的 give it to sb 则是前文中提到过的 give sth to sb,就是“给某人某样东西”的意思。
例句:
Give it to me straight.
老实交代。
They really gave it to me at the meeting!
他们在会议中好好教训了我一顿!
Give it to someone else. I don't want it.
把它给别人吧,我不想要。
对话:
A: How can I break up with my boyfriend 1?
我怎样才能和男朋友分手呢?
B: Be honest with him. Give it to him straight.
老实交代吧。单刀直入地切入话题。
