Get over it
     2016-February-2  08:53    Shenzhen Daily

    这个短语是什么意思?请看对话:

    A: It has been almost a week since his mother passed away. How’s John now?

    B: He’s deeply upset, but he will gradually get over it. After all, time is the healer.

    Note: This idiom means to “move beyond something that is bothering you, accept it and move on to more productive pursuits.” We have been told to “get over” our problems for centuries. For example, in “Thirty-six Years of Seafaring Life,” 1839, we have: “Such was his state, that no one supposed he ever could get over it (an amputation).” In the United States in the early 1990s, the idiom began to be used as a single sentence. The phrase was unofficially adopted by the gay community as a part of the slogan “We’re here and we’re queer — get over it.”
