地道表達(dá)：
make the ends meet
解詞釋義：
end的本義為“盡頭”。此語的字面意思是“使得兩頭碰面”，意為“支出與收支這兩個金額能保持一致”，意即“錢夠花”。
支持范例：
Eg. We can't afford to buy this house because we won't make the ends meet.
我們買不起這房子，因為我們將入不敷出。
Eg. I have scarcely enough money to make ends meet at the moment, let alone lend you any.
我目前都入不敷出，更別說借錢給你了。
Eg. They could not earn enough to make ends meet for the whole family.
他們掙的錢不夠應(yīng)付全家的開支。
Eg. After her husband was laid off, the wife tried every means to make ends meet.
丈夫下崗了，妻子想盡辦法讓家庭的收支平衡。
