“heavy hand”別理解成“手裡拿的東西很重”！

大家好，今天我們分享一個非常有用且地道的表達——heavy hand， 這個短語的含義不是指“手裡拿的東西很重”，其正確的含義是：

heavy hand 高壓手段，強硬措施

我的父親總是用強硬措施懲罰我們。 我們儘量都不惹他生氣。

他採取強硬措施管理所屬部門。但是卻大大地提升了工作效率。

The king ruled with a heavy hand。 All of his citizens are afraid of him。

But its heavy hand may not have made much difference。

但是這麼強硬的措施也許並沒有起到很大的作用。
