'Off the chain' is an English slang(俚语) which has similar meaning to'off the hook'-- meaning freed from danger

blame or obligation. The meaning is evident in the words'chain' and'hook'. eg. A suspect was let off the chain after being proved not guilty. A fish was let off the hook for being under-sized for catching. In Cantonese

preferably we will express the meaning of'off the chain' in the form of a slang(俚语)

either as甩难-meaning freed from danger

or甩绳马骝-meaning as free as an untied monkey 2009-01-18 09:46:01补充：答你今日电邮:'Off the chain'是英之俚语，跟'off the hook'意思相近--免除危难、被责怪或责任'chain'和'hook'表示出意思所在. eg. A suspect was let off the chain after being proved not guilty.疑犯证实无罪后被释放 A fish was let off the hook for being under-sized for catching.钓到的鱼太细小，幸重得自由最好也用广东话俚语解说:甩难-脱离危难

或甩绳马骝-得自由，冇皇管 2009-01-24 20:54:15补充： whatiswhat24你讲够未？ eleanor_lok
