expression
释义
To make a hole in something, usually fabric or material, because of repeated use or rubbing over time.
用法与细微差别
Usually used for worn clothes (e.g. socks, elbows) or items like carpets. Not for general 'wearing' or for things damaged by force. Common with 'socks', 'knees', 'elbows'. Often passive: 'My socks wore through.' More informal and descriptive than technical.
