"Heart sinks" nghĩa là gì?

Hãy cho bé buồn chỉ hôm nay thôi. Photo by Matthew Henry

"(One's) heart sinks" = Tim rủ xuống -> Cảm giác thất vọng/chàn chường.

Ví dụ
My heart sinks as the jeep stops and three soldiers (người lính) get out and start toward one of the shepherds (người chăn cừu).

Then your heart sinks, and your phone starts to ring. Your heart sinks further as you arrive at the brutal (hung ác, tàn bạo) realization that your company is frozen (đóng băng).

Whenever I see these modern terms replacing the ancient hallowed (được thánh hóa) usage of BC and AD my heart sinks. Instead of Christ being seen as the Lord of history, whom previous ages pointed towards and whom subsequent ages reverently (tôn kính) acknowledged, we are presented with a dreary (buồn thảm) formula, the timeline of which is meaningless if Christ is written out of the script.
