【适用场合】

今天我们来学习一下这个短语：off someone's hands； 

在这个短语中，hands其实指的是：control, or responsibility；

所以off one's hands 指的就是：no longer your responsibility“脱手；不再是某个人的责任、不再由某个人负责/照顾”；

eg: They're trying to get old stock off their hands by cutting prices.

他们想通过减价，来把旧库存脱手。

eg: We get Danny off our hands one evening a week when my mother looks after him.

我们每周能休息一个傍晚，让我妈妈带丹尼。
