bite off more than one can chew bite： n. 咬；一口；咬伤；刺痛； bite off： 咬掉 chew： n. 咀嚼；咀嚼物； vt. 嚼碎，咀嚼。 所以可以被翻译为 “贪多嚼不烂” 再通俗点可以说是“没有金刚钻，别揽瓷器活” 简单地说就是“不自量力”的意思啦 例句： Don't bite off more than one can chew. 不要贪多嚼不烂。不要自不量力。 Well, we certainly can't afford the grand foyer, and the sun nook. I mean, if we bite off more than we can chew, we'll lose everything. You need to pick one. 当然，我们完全买不起宽敞和明亮的门厅， 我的意思是，如果我们打肿脸充胖子， 我们将会失去一切，你需要选择一个。 所以对于在龙岗学习英语口语的学习者也应该： Don't bite off more than you can chew. Keep your goal a manageable one. 不要制定要求过高的计划，使你的目标可付诸实践。
