"Catch one's breath" nghĩa là ngừng lại và nghỉ sau khi hoạt động thể chất để có thể thở đều lại bình thường; lấy hơi.

Ví dụ
Tokyo stocks fell Monday as investors caught their breath following a strong advance over the two previous sessions.

Catching my breath, letting it go
Turning my cheek for the sake of this show
Now that you know, this is my life
I won't be told what's supposed to be right
(Bài hát Catch my breath của ca sĩ Kelly Clarkson)

To kick things off (bắt đầu) on Sept. 28, acting legend Woody Harrelson will be hosting, and pop star Billie Eilish will take the SNL stage to hype up the crowd even more. Things only get bigger the following Saturday, when acclaimed British actress and writer Phoebe Waller-Bridge (Fleabag, Killing Eve) will pull the hosting duties, and as the musical guest — let me catch my breath — the queen herself, Taylor Swift, will be performing.
