　　可以用 get in someone's hair來表達麻煩某人意思，就象鑽到某人的頭髮裡，讓人厭煩一樣。

　　範例對話:

　　A: Children! Would you please stop making so much noise! And for heaven's sake, pick up your clothes and toys! It's hard enough trying to keep this house clean without your throwing your things all over the place!

　　B: Clara, I know that the children get in your hair, but you should try not to let it upset you so much.

　　A: Listen, Jim. I can't help it. The children bother me and make me very angry when they're so noisy and messy.

　　舌頭沒有放正，表示某人不是認真的。

　　範例對話:

　　A: Why were you teasing Sonia about her new hairdo? She really took offense at what you said.

　　B: I didn't mean to offend her. I was simply making a tongue-in-cheek remark when I said that it was too elaborate for a girl of her young, tender age.

　　A: Well, she thought you were serious. She had no idea that you were just saying that as a joke.

　　B: I'm really sorry. I suppose I owe her an apology.
