"咬子彈"乍聽之下十分駭人，但實際上它的意思也和這個差不多啦...就是"咬緊牙關、忍辱負重、硬著頭皮"等等。比如對天天騎50分鐘車上學的我來說，油價漲幅可是人命攸關的啊！但即使再怎麼貴，總不能待在家裡發楞吧！這時，就可以說：Scooter riders are biting the bullet after another rise in petrol prices.
又比如有些時候，即便自己很不願意，還是得為某些錯事低頭道歉。這時，就可以說：We've all experienced unpleasant moments when we had to bite the bullet and apologize for something we did.
或者期中考快到了，相信很多人即使不情願，還是得硬著頭皮讀讀書吧！這時就能說： Though some students don't enjoy studying, they have to bite the bullet when it comes to midterms or finals.
