"(Only the wearer knows) where the shoe pinches" =(chỉ người đi mới biết) giày chật ở chỗ nào -> khó khăn là chỗ ấy, rắc rối phiền toái là chỗ ấy.
Ví dụ
Only the wearer knows where the shoe pinches. Who can understand this better than food delivery boys who drive around the city to deliver food on time. Well, not always.
He grew from the ranks (hàng ngũ quân đội). He is an insider and he knows where the shoe pinches, so it is a good appointment (chỉ định) from Mr. President and we are very happy about it.
Only the wearer knows where the shoe pinches. For me, the winter season starts with the first whiff of cold air (luồng không khí lạnh). The first thing I pack away is my sandals and flip flops — I need to keep my feet warm with socks and shoes.
Periodical exit surveys (điều tra xuất cảnh định kỳ) of persons visiting these offices should be able to pinpoint (định vị) where the shoe pinches — outdated procedures (thủ tục lỗi thời) and haphazard (lung tung) ways of working, involving queries (chất vấn) after queries, before arriving at a decision.
