(单词翻译:双击或拖选)

表达 “armed to the teeth 连牙齿都戴上盔甲了”的实际意思是为了做某件事情做好了充分、全面的准备，也就是我们中文里说的“全副武装”。

例句

The bank robbers were armed to the teeth with guns, knives and grenades.

Before assembling the flatpack furniture, he armed himself to the teeth with hammers and screwdrivers¹.

She was armed to the teeth for her exam: five pens, ten pencils, two rulers, a rubber and a lucky mascot².

请注意

Long in the tooth“牙齿长”的实际含义是说某人年迈，年老，一把岁数了。有时候这个表达也可用来表示某人因为年龄大，所以过时了，落伍了。这个说法不是很礼貌，所以在使用时要格外注意，避免产生误会。

例句

She's a bit long in the tooth to be wearing a crop top, don't you think?

Don't think that just because I am a bit long in the tooth, I don't use social media.
