Achilles' heel

Achilles heel

致命要害 (阿基里斯的脚踵)

 

This is a phrase that my boss likes to use.

 

Meaning:

A small but fatal weakness

A spot that is especially or solely vulnerable

 

Example:

1)       His Achille’s heel is his drinking habit. You can pretty much get him to do anything for you if you offer him a drink.

2)     If you want to defeat him, the most effective way is to find his Achilles heel.
