英语词汇all in the same boat的起源、历史背景-英语词源词典

词汇	all in the same boat
词源	all in the same boat. Just more than a century old, this say- ing means that two or more people are sharing the same risks or living under similar conditions. It may derive from some unknown situation when two or more people were adrift in the same lifeboat, or it may even come from the earlier expression “to stick” or “have an oar in another’s boat”; that is, to meddle in someone else’s affairs, which dates back to the 16th century.
