问题: It was his word against mine.
About a year ago, I registered at a Detroit hotel. I had just cashed a check. I didn't want to carry too much money with me, so I asked the desk clerk to put a hundred-dollar bill in the safe for me.
The next morning the clerk denied any knowledge of my money. I had neither a receipt nor any other proof that I had given the man my money. It was his word against mine.There was nothing I could do but go to the nearest lawyer.
请解释一下It was his word against mine的意思,是个惯用法吗?
解答:
应该不是什么惯用法.
我的理解,这句话的意思是:我们两个言语相争.
