touch

Esimerkkilauseet

We will keep in touch with them.

We are in close touch with them.

I would like to touch briefly on these amendments.

Let me touch briefly on those two matters.

I would also like to touch on a personal, political consideration.

abut

adjoin

bore

Esimerkkilauseet

I will not bore you with the details.

Then your brave predecessors embarked on an uncertain project that bore historic fruit.

We know we bore a large part of the responsibility for it.

broach

Esimerkkilauseet

19801 It is therefore too soon to broach this issue.

I will not even broach problems such as child labour -- for there also there are problems.

cash affect concern (4, 6)

hit draw

sink

Esimerkkilauseet

Meanwhile, the project continues to sink into the bureaucratic bog.

If we vote tomorrow the issue will sink without trace: stale news as far as the press is concerned.

strike

Esimerkkilauseet

We must strike a balance between them.

No doubt they strike a happy medium.

I should like finally to strike a biblical note.

Twelve political prisoners dead from hunger strike.

We need always to strike the right balance.

tap

Besides, they concoct alcoholic beverages over there by mixing tap water and home - made spirits.

We must turn off the tap and stop the continuous supply.

In reality, they often have more in common with gamblers who hope to tap into goldmines.
