"(It) beats me" = Đánh tôi đi -> cụm từ này nghĩa là tôi không biết câu trả lời, hay thông dụng hơn có thể dịch là có đánh tôi cũng không biết câu trả lời là gì.

Ví dụ
It beats me why feeding the family in a Bengali household is such a hassle (điều rắc rối, phiền muộn, phiền nhiễu, bực mình)? And why am I doing it for years at a stretch (liên tục), and strangely finding it funny in some twisted kind of order?

Analysts said the collapse of yet another co-operative bank highlighted the risks associated with keeping money with these lenders. “This bank was in Mumbai and hence there is so much focus on it. But it beats me as to why people take the risk and keep money in these banks,” said Asutosh Mishra, the head of research at Ashika Securities.

My observation is that a majority of Kenyan drivers are reckless (thiếu thận trọng, hấp tấp, khinh suất, liều lĩnh, táo bạo) and inconsiderate (thiếu suy nghĩ, khinh suất; thiếu ân cần/chu đáo/quan tâm), yet will ask God why he allowed an accident to happen or blame the devil for their own failings (đổ lỗi cho quỷ satan vì thất bại của chính mình). It beats me why the simple act of dimming lights at night for an oncoming vehicle is hard for most drivers, especially those who drive trucks, buses and a slew of personal vehicle owners who have mounted blinding xenon lights.
