多和田葉子氏の小説 "Scattered All Over the World" を読んでいます。
I wanted to tell Miss Hammer all kinds of things about Fukui. One of the words iiza and nayza in Fukui dialect to help them remember the English words "either" and "neither." The whole class looked a little shocked when I pulled that off. But I was more surprised than anyone.
英語は難しい単語だけではなく、簡単な単語の組み合わせの表現も難しいと感じます。 "pulled that off" の意味を辞書で調べます。
・Oxford English Dictionary: to succeed in doing something difficult: We pulled off the deal.
・Collins Dictionary: to perform successfully, esp. something requiring courage, daring, or shrewdness: We'll be rich if we can pull the deal off
・Cambridge English Dictionary: to succeed in doing something difficult or unexpected: The central bank has pulled off one of the biggest financial rescues of recent years.
どうしてこの様な意味になるのか不思議。それが分からないので中々覚えられない。
