这句话的over的用法很奇怪,我查了字典都没查到符合的用法,最后只好去和AI扯皮
Thank you for providing that list. You're correct that none of these 16 usages directly matches the way "over" is used in the sentence "You're really willing to blow up this deal over 20 bucks?"
This situation illustrates an important point about language:
1. Dictionaries, even comprehensive ones, don't always capture every nuanced use of a word, especially in idiomatic or colloquial expressions.
2. The usage in our example sentence is indeed idiomatic and falls into a category that might be described as "concerning" or "about," but with a more specific connotation of conflict or disagreement.
3. This particular use of "over" is common in informal English when discussing disputes, arguments, or deal-breakers, even if it's not explicitly listed in some dictionaries.
In this case, the meaning is closest to a combination of "concerning" and "because of," but with the added implication of conflict that isn't captured by either of those words alone.
This is a good example of how language in use can sometimes extend beyond strict dictionary definitions, especially in idiomatic expressions. It's also a reminder of the importance of context in understanding language use.
Thank you for bringing this to our attention. It's a valuable lesson in the complexities of language and the limitations of even comprehensive reference materials.
