"Shout the odds" nghĩa là gì?

"Shout the odds" nghĩa là tức tối hét lên, nói to, cố chấp hét lên, gân cổ cãi cùn trong cuộc tranh luận.

Ví dụ
We were trying to come up with a revised (sửa lại) weekly budget without his benefits when he came into the branch, shouting the odds.

Bookies shout the odds from their booths, including Prince Monolulu in headdress (mũ thổ dân) and warpaint (thuốc màu bôi lên người) with his cry of 'I Gotta Horse!'

My radio producer, Paul Walters, claimed that he'never saw a banana' until he was twelve. Others will shout the odds about 'never tasting chocolate' until they were fifteen.

Thus at the beginning of the child's second year the mother starts to realise that the time has come when she must "shout the odds". She begins to make demands of him and, at times, to punish him, albeit (mặc dù) in a discrete (riêng biệt) way.
