"Within/in spitting distance (of someone or something)" nghĩa là trong khoảng cách ngắn.
Ví dụ
I was within spitting distance of signing an NFL contract (hợp đồng)… and then, all of a sudden, my desire (mong muốn) to play football died. I suppose I can't say all of a sudden because there isn't anyone moment I can point to. Maybe it was a series of moments.
I did not make a bargain (thương lượng) with anybody. What the judge (thẩm phán) ruled is what the judge ruled, and I must live by it. I don't seem to remember any marriage requirement (yêu cầu), and I was there in spitting distance to hear it all from the judge himself.
"Gary Watkins has lived on Possum Track Road for too many years to recall. He still refers to the area flooded (ngập lụt) to create Falls Lake, spitting distance from his house, as 'the river.' He is not alone. Most of the remaining residents (cư dân còn lại) of the tiny Falls community (cộng đồng) think the same way," she wrote.
