'A drowning man will clutch at a straw' nghĩa là sắp chết đuối thì vớ được cọng rơm cũng bám lấy.

Ví dụ
It is as a result of this hope that Ghanaians have held on to promises made by the President and officials tasked with ending the darkness being experienced the way a drowning man will clutch at a straw to stay afloat.

Granted, as the famous saying goes: ‘A drowning man will clutch at a straw, however, will the alliance with PKK affiliated group serve its purpose and remedy the IS epidemic in Syria proper in the medium to long run?

And like the saying, a drowning man will clutch at a straw, it was no doubt that few apologists of this drowning government will clutch to the postponement of elections, or more self-defeating – engineer an extension of President Koroma’s term for another two years, with the postponement of both the Census and the Constitutional Review.
