ビジ英とのかぶりメモ。
『デスパレートな妻たち』でカルロスの台詞でも出てきたhit om meが、昨日のビニエットで2回、出て来た。

"He's not hitting on me, you idiot, he's threatening me."
こっちはその先のガブリエルとのやりとりから「つきまとう」「言い寄る」のような感じかなと思っていましたが、ビジ英では、「せがむ」で出て来ました。

They've hitting on me for rises in their weekly allowance.（週決めのお小遣を上げてほしいと子どもたちにせがまれていた）

Most of the time my kids don't hit on me for more money.（うちの子供たちは余計なお金をせがむということがほとんどありません）

hit on… …に打ちあたる; ふと…が見つかる, 〈妙案など〉を思いつく, …に思い当たる; 《俗》 〈人〉にしつこく売りつける, うるさく付きまとう; 《俗》 《誘惑･頼みごとなどの目的で》 …にあたりをつける, 接近する; 《俗》 〈人〉から盗む, …に金をせびる.

・dish out ・・を与える
・shell out 支払う、しぶしぶ払う
・get bombarded 　うるさくせがまれる

Head and Shouldersは、先月TrendSpottingの時に、杉田先生が「フケに効くシャンプー」として紹介されていたのですが、今読んでる本で出て来て「お！」と思いました。
