'Not hurt a fly' = không làm hại tới một con ruồi (fly không chỉ mang nghĩa 'bay', mà còn mang nghĩa 'con ruồi' nhé các bạn) -> từ này để chỉ một người hiền lành không làm hại ai, bản tính khiêm tốn, rụt rè, nhút nhát
Ví dụ
“I’m telling you, my client (khách hàng, thân chủ) would not hurt a fly and had she even knew she had hurt a human being, she not only [would have] stopped but she would’ve also called,” DiLucente said.
“To this day, we never knew the reason nor do I think we ever will,” Lawrence said. “She would not hurt a fly. She was a wonderful mother of four and a grandmother (bà). She was fantastic. She was mild (dịu dàng), meek (nhu mì), a very Christian and devout (sùng đạo) woman. She loved everybody.”
Dory was truly an old soul (tâm hồn) that would not hurt a fly, probably because she detested (ghét) them and ran as far from them as possible! She was sweet, and kind, and loving. Dory was a stellar student (học sinh xuất sắc) and friend, and was excelling at school in the Dual Immersion program at Driggs Elementary.
