Showing all 3 examples containing 免未免太過份 edit go a bit too far; be rather too presumptuous 見你咁有誠意我就免為其難原諒你呢次！粵 edit Since you are so sincere, I will bear but live with it and forgive you just this once! 做事出錯要改正﹐但要避免矯枉過正。 edit We must correct what has been done wrong, but also avoid making correction beyond what is really necessary.
