383. 那位顧客同買東西的人討價還價，嘴皮都磨破了，可那人就是不降價。
[誤] The customer bargained with the seller till he had worn out his lips, but the seller didn\'t change his
price.
[正] The customer had worn out his tongue bargaining with the seller, but the seller didn\'t change his price.
注：中文用“嘴皮”，但 tongue 卻更符合英國人的習慣。另外，“保持緘默”的英文是 bite the ongue。
