喜樂美語
  1. 1run on (continue too long)拖太久、講個不停

    To continue for longer than planned or wanted — a meeting runs on, a speech runs on, and a person who talks and talks 'does run on'. Gently complaining in tone. No object. (In writing class, a 'run-on sentence' — a sentence that doesn't stop where it should — comes from exactly this idea.)
