شرح كل عبارة
-
Let's just leave well enough alone. نبرة الكلام: Gentle and friendly
Use it when a situation is fine now and you think changing it could make it worse. It's less useful when there is a real problem that needs fixing.
“Let's just leave well enough alone.”
-
Let's let sleeping dogs lie. نبرة الكلام: Calm and wise
Use it when an old problem or argument is quiet and talking about it again would wake it up. Don't use it to hide something serious that people need to know about.
“Let's let sleeping dogs lie.”
-
Why open a can of worms? نبرة الكلام: Serious warning
Use it when one question or action could start many new problems at the same time. It sounds like a warning, so it's stronger than the first two lines.
“Why open a can of worms?”
-
Let it go. نبرة الكلام: Short and kind
Use it when someone keeps thinking about an old problem that doesn't matter anymore. With a stranger or in an angry moment, it can sound a little rude.
-
It's water under the bridge. نبرة الكلام: Relaxed and forgiving
Use it to say that an old problem is in the past and you're not upset about it now. It's often an answer to an apology.
-
Don't rock the boat. نبرة الكلام: Careful, a bit cautious
Use it when a group is calm and someone wants to say or do something that could upset people. It can sound like you're telling the person to stay quiet, so use it carefully.
أخطاء شائعة

صياغة غير دقيقة
Let sleeping dogs lying.صياغة أفضل Let sleeping dogs lie.
After let, use the base form of the verb with no -ing and no to. Compare "Let me help" and "Let it go."
-
صياغة غير دقيقة
Let sleeping dogs lay.صياغة أفضل Let sleeping dogs lie.
Here lie means to rest without moving. Lay needs an object, as in "lay the book on the table," so it doesn't fit this idiom.
-
صياغة غير دقيقة
Let's just leave good enough alone.صياغة أفضل Let's just leave well enough alone.
The fixed phrase uses well, not good. People will understand the wrong form, but it sounds unnatural.
