with complete confidence 胸有成竹
胸有成竹,汉语成语,本意是指“在文艺创作开始前,艺术形象已在头脑中生成(have an image of the art in one's mind prior to artistic creation)”。后比喻在做事之前已经拿定主意,有自信,可以翻译为“have had ready plans [designs] in one's mind;with complete confidence”。 例句: 所有的答案他都胸有成竹。 He had all the answers off pat. 她对自己的立场不再胸有成竹。 She was no longer sure of her position. |
