“Get in the last word” = Nói lời cuối cùng trong một cuộc tranh luận hoặc bàn bạc khi đã kiên quyết và dứt khoát muốn kết thúc.
Ví dụ
Don’t you hate the part of us that has to get in the last word? We can’t let the matter drop. We spit out words fueled by the heat of the moment – words that continue to sting and cut long after they’ve left our lips. Long past the moment we regret saying them.
“A pattern of needing to get in the last word can be driven by the need to feel better about yourself by being ‘right,’” Smith said. “It can also be a characteristic of narcissism, although this attribute alone doesn’t make someone a narcissist (người tự yêu bản thân mình, ảo tưởng sức mạnh).”
“I didn’t say you were doing anything wrong,” the man interrupted. “You said I set up my son to work on an oil company!” Biden shot back, angrily. “Isn’t that what you said? Get your words straight, Jack!” Both men said they didn’t want to get into an argument before the Iowan tried to get in the last word. "It looks like you don’t have any more backbone than Trump does,” he said, as the crowd booed. “I’m not voting for you,” the man said, dismissing the former vice president with a hand gesture and taking a seat. “I knew you weren’t, man,” Biden responded. “You’re too old to vote for me.”
