把煮熟的鸭子给闹飞了

把煮熟的鸭子给闹飞了:

Literally means:

allow the well-cooked duck; to fly away fail unexpectedly.

Actually means:

Generally speaking, live ducks can rarely fly, to say nothing of well-cooked ones. In this phrase, a well-cooked duck figuratively means something very sure.

The whole phrase figuratively means what could have been successful fails unexpectedly, or what could have been won is lost disappointingly. It carries a sense of regret.

一般说来活的鸭子是很少飞的，而煮熟的鸭子更是不可能飞的。在这里，煮熟的鸭子比喻已经很有把握的事情。

把煮熟的鸭子给闹飞了，比喻按道理应该成功 的事情却意外地失败了，或意外失去了很有可能得到的东西。 含有遗憾的意味。
