屎坑關刀英文 Jack of all trades
有兩個唔同嘅意味, 視乎上文下理
The Cantonese slang is either positive or derogative in sense, depending on its context.
1. 一般是指, 通天曉, 樣樣識啲
"Someone who can do many different jobs" Cambridge Dictionary
Her husband is a jack-of-all trades, doing a lot of DIY at home.
2. 有貶意, 尤其後面加上 '無樣利' 無[mou4]樣[joeng6/joeng2]利[lei6], 即是:
'屎坑關刀, 無樣利' which is similar in meaning to 'jack-of-all trades, master of none' in
English.
Cambridge Dictionary refers 'jack-of-all trades, master of none' to "said about someone
who is able to do many things, but is not an expert"
Tom is a jack of all trades, but master of none. It may be the reason why he has not
been promoted to manager yet.
屎[si2]坑[haang1]關[gwaan1]刀[dou1]
