in persian •  7 years ago 

on the ropes

در حال شکست، درمانده، در گوشه‌ی رینگ

(On the brink of defeat or collapse.)

Some experts believe that the new health system is already on the ropes due to its numerous shortcomings.

برخی از کارشناسان بر این باورند که سیستم جدید بهداشتی هم‌اکنون به علت نقایص پرشمار آن در آستانه‌ی شکست قرار دارد.

مثال دیگر:

Several countries joined forces to gang up on the king while he was on the ropes.

چندین کشور با هم متحد شدند تا علیه پادشاه که به حال شکست افتاده بود، به‌طور گروهی اقدام کنند.
