我们的外教 Tony 是个急性子，平时最怕别人说话吞吞吐吐的。昨天开晨会时， Tony 在台上还没讲两句，台下的 Lawrence 就支支吾吾地欲言又止。Tony 见状不耐烦地问他“ Come on, Law，just spit it out！（别吞吞吐吐的啦）” Lawrence 一听也不结巴了“Your fly is open！（你的裤子拉链没拉。）”
呵呵，这种例子生活中大家肯定见过不少吧，spit 本意就是“吐痰、啐唾沫、吐食物”的那个“吐”，所以短语“spit it out”除了吐出东西之外，还具有“爽快且毫无保留地说出来”这层含义，下次你要是再碰上吞吞吐吐的人就能用上这句啦！
spit it out
毫无保留地讲； 吐出来；吐掉；直说；有什么尽管说出来！爽快点吧！
