At each other’s throats 唇枪舌战地争吵

今日短语 At each other’s throats 唇枪舌战地争吵

今日短语并不是所有的时候大家都能够和平相处，难免有争执的情况发生。当这些争吵变得非常激烈，双方说话尖锐，态度也很强硬的时候，我们就可以用 at each other’s throats “卡住对方的脖子”来形容他们激烈争吵，对峙、互不相让的状态。

例句 I thought they were happily married but now it seems they are always at each other’s throats.

请注意我们可以用 have a lump in your throat “喉咙里有一块东西”来形容因为心情激动，尤其指由于悲伤引起的哽咽欲泣的感觉。

例句 It always brings a lump to my throat when I look at photos of my children when they were babies.
