"Elbow room" nghĩa là gì?

"Elbow room" = phòng khuỷu tay -> nghĩa là không gian đủ để di chuyển, xoay người với khoảng cách 1 khuỷu tay. Nghĩa khác là khả năng hành động, tự do làm theo ý muốn của một người.

Ví dụ
Mumbai, with over 20,000 cases, is the worst affected city in the country in terms of sheer (tuyệt đối) numbers. As the country enters in lockdown 4, the centre has given quite some elbow room to each state to decide on the relaxations.

The boardwalk (lối đi lại) was crowded Friday, but generally, there are family and friend groups together with space between the others. There are signs along the boardwalk reminding people to distance. There is plenty of elbow room on the beach.

The Gulf region’s need for a country like Turkey, with a high capacity (năng lực) and capability for sustainable production (sản xuất bền vững) and exports in various areas, from agriculture, food and machinery to services, is clear. It is saddening (đáng buồn), however, that they’re pursuing dangerous interests (lợi ích nguy hiểm) with countries, particularly the U.S., who don’t want to give Turkey any elbow room in the Eastern Mediterranean, the Middle East and Africa. But they will pay a high price for this.
