Domande Inglese (Stati Uniti)
Hello. I'm learning about some idioms and want to figure out the meanings of them.
Could you please let me know them?
1) Is the meaning of "I was way out of line" similar to the meaning of "I did what is rude or not polite" ?
2) Does the meaning of "You're stepping on my last nerve." mean "Don't get me annoyed anymore."?
3) Does the meaning of "Don't stab in the back" mean "Don't betray " ?
Thank you very much :)
Have a good day.

1) technically you’re not wrong, but to say someone was “way out of line” is a bit stronger than saying they were impolite. it means their behavior was very inappropriate and not at all the correct way to act
2) also yes. to be “on someone’s nerves” (or stepping on someone’s nerve, i suppose, but that phrasing is less common and i’m not as familiar with it) would mean that you are aggravating or annoying them. it’s implied that you should stop but it’s not a direct order
3) you are right! to “stab someone in the back” is to betray their trust
