"There will be hell to pay" nghĩa là gì?
04 Dec, 2020
"There will be hell to pay" -> nghĩa là sẽ bị trừng trị, sẽ phải trả giá đắt.
Ví dụ
A “GRINCH” neighbour (hàng xóm) sent a note to a family saying there will be “hell to pay” if they put on a big Christmas lights display. The anonymous (nặc danh) threat was sent to a family in Brisbane, Australia after they promised a “bigger and better” display of festival lights - after wowing locals at Halloween.
In these troubling times, all we ask is that you spread a little extra love and vote for your favourite electronic producer/DJ of 2020 and if 2021 is anything less than remarkable there will be hell to pay.
Moreover, there will be hell to pay in the future – just for a few scraps from the government table now. No one is denying children need support right now. But with the Tories, there’s going to be a massive sting (đốt) in the tail. It’s going to be a long, hard winter for millions of children across the country. But the future and what it holds looks even bleaker (lạnh lẽo) than that.
As an especially astute (sắc sảo) constitutional (hiến pháp) expert and friend of mine has privately noted, Pelosi, who of course will know these (for her) unwelcome facts, may refuse to convene the House session, or by way of some other subterfuge (lẩn tránh) not allow the vote to go in favor of Trump. Since such action on her part will be unacceptable to about 70 million Americans, there will be hell to pay.
