'Add insult to injury' = thêm chấn thương vào vết thương -> làm cho tình hình trở nên tồi tệ hơn; là 'xát muối vào vết thương', 'xát muối vào nỗi đau' đó các bạn :)
Ví dụ
To add insult to injury, a good number of officials themselves are not conversant (dính dáng, liên quan tới) with all the provisions (quy định) of the Act and Rules.
Let's not add insult to injury here - Irish beef exports (xuất khẩu) last year to international markets, including the much-lauded (tán dương) US market, were 25,000t. Yes, that's 25,000t, while the UK took nearly 300,000t and the rest of the EU took around 200,000t.
The US government is currently waging (chiến đấu) multiple self-destructive (tự hủy hoại mình) trade wars against various nations around the world, including even close US allies (đồng minh). To add insult to injury, the Trump administration even plans to institute new tariffs (thuế quan) on tea and fireworks.
