twist是“扭曲、旋轉”，Twist someone's arm是把胳膊肘都給擰過來了，形容的就是強人所難的做法，所以twist someone’s arm指的是給某人施壓，強迫某人做什么事情。
【例句】
I've really had quite enough to eat,but perhaps if you twist my arm I could have just a little bit more.
我真的吃得非常飽了，不過要是你硬要我再吃也許我還可以吃一點。
You don't have to twist my arm. I told you I would go with you to the shop.
