Odgovor maternega govorca

Ja, tako je. Kick for the curbje idiom, ki se uporablja za odmetavanje ali odstranjevanje ljudi ali stvari, ki so postale nepotrebne, zastarele ali zastarele. Primer: I can't believe that after 20 years the company would just kick me to the curb like that! (delam že 20 let, vendar si nikoli nisem mislil, da bom to zmogel!) Primer: I think it's about time we kick this old computer to the curb. (mislim, da je čas, da se znebim starega računalnika.) Primer: I heard Jenny kicked her boyfriend to the curb last night. They must have had an awful fight! (slišal sem, da je Jenny sinoči odvrgla svojega fanta, zato smo se morali pretepati!)
