词汇 string along with someone
词源
string along with someone. To accept someone’s decision or advice, to follow someone as a leader, to go along with some- one. In 1799 a political observer speaks of “the sycophantic cir- cle that surrounds the President in stringing to his quarters.” Stringing along probably comes from the same source as this earlier phrase, which suggests docile pack animals tied together in single file and led by their masters. The phrase isn’t recorded until the 1920s.
