    Falling or jumping off a boat into the water - "man overboard!" is the classic warning shout when someone falls in. Much more commonly today, "go overboard" is used as an idiom meaning to do way too much of something, more than is reasonable or necessary - going overboard with decorations, going overboard on spending.

    落水、掉入海中（如 man overboard）；go overboard 常用來指做得太過火、過度。
