귀에 못이 박히도록 (nails in my ears)
도우미
본문
귀에 못이 박힌다고 생각한다면 끔찍하네요.
이 표현에서 못은 굳은 살과 같은 의미를 갖고 있어요. 손을 사용하는 일을 오랜 동안 하면 손에 굳은 살이 생기지요. 이럴 때 손에 못이 박혔다고 말해요.
It's terrible if you think you have a nail in your ear.
In this expression, nails have the same meaning as calluses. Working with your hands for a long time can cause calluses to appear on your hands. In this case, they say that a nail is stuck in my hand.
귀에 못이 박힌다는 말은 어떠한 말을 매우 여러 번 들었다는 말이에요. 그래서 지금은 그 말이 지겨워졌다는 의미가 담겨 있어요.
예를 들어 “어머니로부터 그 말은 귀에 못이 박히게 들었어.”라는 말은 어머니로부터 그 말은 지겹도록 매우 여러 번 들었다는 말이에요. 여러분도 이와 비슷한 경험이 있나요?
To be nailed to my ear means that I have heard something very many times. So now it has a meaning that I am bored with that word.
For example, “I heard that word from my mother so that my ear was nailed to it.” means that I heard it from my mother so many times that I was tired of hearing it. Do you have similar experiences?
