(169) get cold feet

[williamahn]

   (A)  I know this is a sort of bad time to mention this, Jane.

            but maybe we  should wait a bit longer before we get married.

      (B)  You're getting cold feet?  Seriously?

             today is a really nbad time for you to be having second thoughts.

      (A)  You're right. I'm being silly.

            I'll see you at three, at the church.

      Tip) - -[1] = 중대한일을 앞두고 막판에 갑자기 초조해지거나 두려워서 망서려지고 용기가 않날때

                       "get cold feet"란 표현을 쓸수 있다.

             - -[2] = A hundred to one shot // 백에 하나 있는/ 매우 드문일

                       (a) I'm impressed with your booming sales. What's your secret?

                           (치솟는 매출액이 매우 인상적이야. 비결이 무어야?)

                       (b) Actually, it's a combination of so many differet things.

                            which all had to come together at the same time.

                           (사실, 여러가지 요소들이 잘 맞아 떨어저야해.)

                       (a) I see. I must have been a hundred to one shot

                           that everything would work out like this.

                           (그렇군, 이러게 잘 맞아 떨어지는건 매우 드문 일이 겟군나.)
