When you say that it takes two to tango, you suggest something in which more than one person of other entity are paired in a bad situation, both must be responsible.“It takes two to tango.”字面意思解释“两个人才能跳起探戈”。这个短语表示一个糟糕的局面往往不只是单独一个人造成的,往往是当事人双方都起作用。
Examples:
Well, it takes two to tango. Maybe both of them are at fault. 一个巴掌拍不响。或许他们两个都有错吧。
I know it takes two to tango, but please, he promised me he would take the responsibility. 我知道一个人成不了气候,但是,他向我保证过他会承担这个责任。 |
