地道表達(dá)：
have it out with sb.
解詞釋義：
在英語(yǔ)中，have something out with sb.是一個(gè)習(xí)慣用語(yǔ)，它的意思是“通過(guò)公開(kāi)的辯論以解決爭(zhēng)端”。它同have it out with sb.的用法和意義完全相同。
支持范例：
Eg. He decided that he might as well have it out with them.
他決定還是和他們把問(wèn)題談清楚的好。
Eg. You must pluck up courage and have it out with Mary once and for all!
你要膽大老練，對(duì)Mary說(shuō)個(gè)明白!
Eg. After suffering silently, she decided to have it out with her husband.
在默默地忍受之后,她決定向丈夫攤牌。
Eg. I'm going to see Frank and have it out with him. It's time we knew what he's doing.
我要去見(jiàn)弗蘭克，和他爭(zhēng)個(gè)明白。該是我們知道他在干什么的時(shí)候了。
