wing it vs. wing something
- wing it 是一個固定片語，意思是「即興發揮、臨場應變」，強調在沒有準備或計畫的情況下進行。
- wing something 則表示「臨時應付某事」，結構上需要一個受詞（something），語意上更側重於對特定任務或事件的即興處理。
- 兩者都帶有「未經充分準備」的含義，但 wing it 更通用，而 wing something 更具體。 EN: I didn't have time to prepare a speech, so I'll just have to wing it. 翻譯: 我沒時間準備演講，所以只能臨場發揮了。
