A: What did you say when she told you the news?

B: I clammed up. And finally, I asked her to chew the cud for such an important decision. I could not have the heart to disappoint her with a blunt refusal.

地道表達(dá):

have the heart to do something

解詞釋義:

not have the heart to do something的本義是“沒有勇氣去做某事”,現(xiàn)在多用來表示“不忍心去做某事”。此語的肯定式是have the heart to do something(忍心做某事)。

支持范例:

她不忍心把這個壞消息告訴她的女兒。
