[英文成語] WHOLE NINE YARDS. - 認識「全抵盡」嘅真正含義

全部，全面

當我哋講到「Whole nine yards」呢個成語，我哋係指做某事時嘅全面性或完整性，好似係話你做嘢做到盡。但你知唔知道呢個成語點解會有「九碼」呢個量度喺度？其中一個講法係追溯到二次世界大戰時嘅美國戰鬥機，有種說法係機槍彈鏈嘅長度係九碼。另外，呢個長度喺裁縫行業入面亦都係常用標準。不過，到底真確嘅由來仲未有定論。喺日常生活中，呢個成語可以應用到多個場景，比如你要講你對某個項目投入咗大量嘅努力同資源，就可以用「我哋做咗全九碼」嚟形容。透過呢個表述，你可以表達出無論任務幾艱鉅，你都全力以赴，確保每一個細節都被照顧到。
