31 Aug, 2020
"Beat your breast" = đấm ngực (than trời) -> nghĩa là công khai bày tỏ cảm xúc buồn chán hoặc tội lỗi.
Ví dụ
Don't beat your breast. There is nothing much you have done to improve the income and life of the Rakyat.
And if you happened to be a little too human to be sickened by the gossip (chuyện phiếm), or to ignore it--well, Esposito's lawsuit (kiện cáo) has now worked its reifying (vật chất hóa) magic. So beat your breast in shame and get on with your life. Remember, Christ died for your sins.
As long as rising prices cannot be contained, traffic gridlock (ùn tắc) can’t be untangled (gỡ rối), poverty reduced to lower levels and wages increased don’t beat your breast, Mr. Harry. No one will pay attention. And please don’t manipulate (thao túng) statistics.
