ENGLISH IDIOMS: give someone a hard time

in persian •  7 years ago 

give someone a hard time

کسی را اذیت کردن، پدر کسی را درآوردن

(To deliberately make a situation difficult for someone.)

I do my best to help him with his studies, but he really gives me a hard time when I try to explain a mathematical concept for him.

من تمام سعیم را می‌کنم که در درس‌هایش به او کمک کنم، ولی وقتی که می‌خواهم یک مفهوم ریاضی را برایش توضیح دهم، واقعاً پدر مرا درمی‌آورد.

مثال دیگر:

I worked in this company for years and no one gave me a hard time until I raised the issue of illegal deals.

من سال‌ها در این شرکت کار کردم و هیچ‌کس اذیتم نکرد، تا آنکه مسئله‌ی معاملات غیرقانونی را مطرح کردم.
