TO BE BETTER OFF DOING SOMETHING: meaning and examples
Hello again.
Today we continue with our look at expressions with the word OFF. Today's expression is a variation of the expression that we studied yesterday, to be better off.
Today's expression is: to be better off doing something
Meaning: used to say that someone is (or would be) happier or more satisfied if they were in a particular position or took a particular action.
Example 1:
He is better off without her. I'm so glad they separated.
Example 2:
We would have been better off staying at home; the weather is horrible today.
I would be happy to answer any questions about today's Daily Vitamin in the Daily Vitamin section on our website. To post a question, click on the "add a comment" button.
