[Study with Daily Busan] beat around the bush
"beat around the bush"
What does "beat around the bush" mean?
It means to avoid saying what you mean, often because it makes you uncomfortable. The opposite of speaking directly.
In Korean, it means "돌려서 말하다".
Here's a refined example sentence:
“Stop beating around the bush and tell me how you really feel.”
