| carrying a chip on your shoulder biti ozlojeđen, ogorčen Explanation: Ovo kaže English - Serbian Oxford Dictionary: to feel angry about something that happened long time ago because you think it is unfair - biti ozlojeđen zbog nečega. “Carrying a chip on your shoulder” Resentful about something or feel that you have been treated badly http://egret.psychol.cam.ac.uk/medicine/scales/PANSS_Proverb... Ovde je jako dobro objašnjenje: http://ezinearticles.com/?Chip-on-Your-Shoulder?&id=289974 The chip is born out of resentment for treatment we have received that we feel was unjust or hurtful. Obviously we must deal with our mistreatment, real or perceived A perceived grievance or sense of inferiority. http://www.phrases.org.uk/meanings/chip-on-your-shoulder.htm... If someone has a chip on their shoulder, they feel resentful because they feel they are being treated unfairly, especially because of their background, their sex or their colour. http://www.learn-english-today.com/idioms/idiom-categories/f... Dakle, neko je ogorčen, ozlojeđen zbog svoje percepcije (koja može biti realna ili ne) da dobija značajno gori tretman od onog koji zaslužuje. |
