外國人日常短語 第62期:give it to somebody straight
釋義：
give it to somebody straight 單刀直入地說
give it to somebody straight 表示“對(duì)某人單刀直入地說”。但如果沒有 straight,單單是 give it to sb 的話就表示“給某人顏色看看”或“性行為”。但最常用的 give it to sb 則是前文中提到過的 give sth to sb，就是“給某人某樣?xùn)|西”的意思。
例句：
Give it to me straight.
老實(shí)交代。
They really gave it to me at the meeting!
他們?cè)跁?huì)議中好好教訓(xùn)了我一頓!
Give it to someone else. I don't want it.
把它給別人吧，我不想要。
對(duì)話：
A: How can I break up with my boyfriend?
我怎樣才能和男朋友分手呢?
B: Be honest with him. Give it to him straight.
老實(shí)交代吧。單刀直入地切入話題。
