长话短说

Idiom
Informal

a thorough explanation of how something happened

What is the origin of the idiom "long story" and when to use it?

The idiom "long story" is an informal expression that has evolved over time to indicate a complex or time-consuming narrative. Its origin lies in the tendency of individuals to preface or follow up a detailed account with the phrase "long story" to warn listeners that the explanation may take a considerable amount of time. This idiom is a colloquial way of signaling that there is more information than can be conveniently conveyed in a brief or succinct manner.

What is a "flat tire"?

A flat tire refers to a tire that has lost air pressure, usually due to a puncture, leak, or damage. When a tire is flat, it becomes unable to properly support the weight of the vehicle, making it difficult or impossible to drive safely. This condition can cause the vehicle to handle poorly, and in some cases, it can lead to further damage if not addressed. A flat tire often requires repair or replacement to restore the vehicle's ability to drive properly.

a physical or mental condition that prevents a person from using some part of their body completely or learning something easily

What is a "disability"?

A disability is a physical, mental, sensory, or developmental condition that may limit a person's ability to perform certain tasks, participate in activities, or interact with their environment in the same way as others. Disabilities can vary widely in nature and seriousness, and they can appear from birth or later in life due to injury, illness, or other factors. People with disabilities may face challenges in areas such as movement, communication, learning, or daily living activities. However, with appropriate support, accommodations, and access to resources, individuals with disabilities can lead independent and fulfilling lives. It is important to promote acceptance and remove barriers to make sure of equal opportunities and participation for people with disabilities in all aspects of society.
