Word: “拐弯抹角” guǎi wān mò jiǎo -
Meaning: “beat around the bush”
Use: 不要老是 “拐弯抹角”, 直接跟我说就行了。
*bú yàolǎoshì “guǎi wān mò jiǎo”, zhíjīe gēn wǒ shūo jìu xíng le!
Don't always “beat around the bush”(when speaking to me), just tell me directly!
I've found this idiom (成语-chéngyǔ) to be very useful, and fun to say. Hope you find it like wise.
*Why bú not bù? See here .
