- 1
British, informal, a little old-fashioned: two people who are not close friends manage to live or work together without fighting — not warm, just workable. Often 'rub along (together / with someone)'. There is a modest, very British feeling in it: things are not great, but we manage.
還算處得來、勉強和平相處
