Thank you James
Hello dear friends:
it's night, the nurse in the animal hospital calls the vet over an urgent case and she says:
"sorry to drag you out"What does she mean: sorry for wasting his time, or waking him up, I couldn't find this combination:
dragging somebody out.Thank you very much
It means to pull/drag you away from what you were doing. It's often used whem someone is relaxing after work and is called back in for some emergency or other.
Thanks a lot.
Because it's night, "drag you out" is particularly appropriate because the nurse's call drags the doctor out of bed and away from his comfortable home.
