would do if he/she found out about something that he/she
would strongly object to.)
Note: This expression is always used in a hypothetical sense,
what if and would. After all, you cannot say that someone(really)
turned over in his grave.
Sample: If my grandfather saw me now marrying someone of different
religion/race, he would turn over in his grave. | k***y 发帖数: 217 | 2 reminds me of "wake up the dead"
