神奇俚语-美元和甜甜圈碰在一起，竟有这个意思
BGM-Govi - Hanalei Bay
神奇的俚语，总是给我们不断的惊喜，今天就来分享一个由两个我们常见的单词 ”dollars”和 “donuts”组合在一起的表达。
In earlier days when a dollar was worth more than it is now and a doughnut cost considerably less as compared to it, someone who was reasonably sure that an event would happen might bet upon it and say “I bet dollars to donuts”.
在早期，当一美元比现在值钱，一个甜甜圈比现在要便宜得多，一个有理由确信某件事会发生的人可能会打赌说“我十分确信/十拿九稳”。
dollars to donuts / doughnuts: 十拿九稳
It is used to highlight sureness of something
