    Default Can someone help me Translation To Vietnamese

    How can we tranlsate this sentence:
    "He shifted on his feet and pursed his lips in annoyance."
    "“A hand-me-down?” I checked."
    I can't understand the meaning of "a-and-me-down"

    The sentences are using English idioms so I will translate into plain English.

    "He moved about uncomfortably and pursed his lips in annoyance" Pursed lips = moi mim lai

    A hand-me-down is an item of clothing that has been owned by an older member of the family. Hence, it is 'handed down'. This is because it is cheaper than buying a new item.

    Hắn ta đổi bộ luôn và mím chặt môi bực dọc, khó chịu.

    Tôi xem xét :"đồ giạt ra cho tôi"
