미국 캐나다 생활 영어: Skirting around

​

안녕하세요

미국 캐나다 실생활 영어 알려드리는 카니잉글리시입니다 ^^

​

"Skirting around"

"Skirting around"라는 표현은 직접적인 접근을 피하거나 특정 문제에 대한 대응을 회피하는 것을 의미하는 관용구입니다. 어떤 사람이 어떤 주제나 질문을 "skirting around"하고 있다고 말할 때, 그것은 직접적인 응답을 피하거나 본질적인 문제에 대해 의도적으로 다루지 않고 있다는 것을 시사합니다. 이는 주제나 문제를 직접적으로 다루기를 꺼리거나 주제를 직접적으로 논하려 하지 않는 것을 의미합니다.

한 마디로

"회피하다"라는 소리입니다. ^^

​

예문으로 뉘앙스 확실히 파악하고 가겠습니다.

고고!
