?
10 to avoid sth unpleasant
~ doing sth
He fell and just missed knocking the whole display over.
I can't grasp the meaning of the sentence well. Could you tell me a little more about the situation? Thank you.
- Inglés (US)
He almost knocked over the display when he fell. A display is something that displays/shows something valuable, like a cabinet with valuable plates or a a stand holding some valuable jewelry. Usually there’s glass so ppl can see the item but not touch it. These are usually fragile and knocking them over would be loud and expensive and very bad.
