ride or die 有點像是 ”ride till the end, or die trying” 的感覺~
現代字典是這麼翻譯的 “when you are willing to do anything for someone you love or someone you really appreciate in your life. the person who you stand by in any problem”
所以我會把它翻成,願意「為你赴湯蹈火」,「為你摘星星」的人,都可以稱作 ride or die!
而玩命關頭的 ride or die 也翻成生死之交!
是不是超有趣~~~
