peer agreement (net): +2| she was cutting off her nose to spite her face såga av den gren man själv sitter på Explanation: Man kan även tänka sig det modernare och mer vanvördiga "bita sig själv i röven" beroende på den övriga kontexten. -------------------------------------------------- Note added at 1 hr (2006-02-08 02:33:36 GMT) -------------------------------------------------- Jag borde naturligtvis skrivit "Hon sågade av grenen hon själv satt på", eller "Hon bet sig själv i röven" med tanke på hur du ställde frågan. |
