地道表达

have a bone to pick

1. 解词释义

Have a bone to pick从字面意思是“挑骨头”的意思，引申为“有理由来抱怨或争论”。这个习语源于16世纪是从狗啃骨头这一行为引申而来的。狗对于骨头有极大的爱好，总是啃不完，爱不释手，于是，have a bone to pick就被用来指代“需要常时间讨论的事情”了。

2. 拓展例句

e.g. I can't make out why he seems to have a bone to pick with almost everyone.

我真搞不懂为什么他好象和几乎每个人都有仇似的。

e.g. Here! I have a bone to pick with you about the way you spoke to me yesterday.

喂！我对你昨天向我说话的那种方式有意见。

e.g. I have a bone to pick with you. You still owe me the fifteen dollars you borrowed.

我有账跟你算。你向我借的十五美金还没还呢!

Ps：go along with的意思是“赞同”，相当于agree with。例如：

Your suggestion is illegal; I can't go along with it.

你的建议不合法；我不能赞同。

You'll have to go along with it, or the whole deal's off.

可你必须照办，否则这桩买卖就吹了。
