dodge a bullet

A bullet is the small metal piece that is shot out of a gun, and dodge means to move so that you escape something.

Bullet是從槍里射出的小金屬片,dodge的意思是移動(dòng)以逃離一些東西。

It's used generally to mean avoiding any situation that turns out to be disastrous or very harmful.

它通常用來指避免任何災(zāi)難性或非常有害的情況。

Let me give you an example -a woman was dating a man who started acting controlling and abusive, doing things like preventing her from having male friends, and grabbing her by the hair when he was angry. Fortunately, she broke up with the guy and moved to another city, so he is no longer in her life. You could say:

讓我給你舉個(gè)例子——一個(gè)女人和一個(gè)男人約會(huì),這個(gè)男人開始控制和虐待她,做一些事情,比如阻止她交男性朋友,當(dāng)他生氣的時(shí)候抓住她的頭發(fā)。幸運(yùn)的是,她和那個(gè)男人分手了,搬到了另一個(gè)城市,所以他不在她的生活中了。你就可以說:

She dodged a bullet because she avoided marrying with someone who probably would have abused her.

她躲過了一劫,因?yàn)樗龥]有和一個(gè)可能虐待她的人結(jié)婚。
