习语：
Dutch courage
解词释义：该习语是因为英语与荷兰之间的恩恩怨怨，积重难反，有渊源极深，而荷兰被称为“海盗之国”，海盗是做事鲁莽的，所以就用这个词语来表示“酒后之勇”。
支持范例：
Eg.The poor man beat his boss by means of Dutch courage.
那个可怜的人借酒劲打了他的老板。
Eg.I'd had four drinks and hoped that my Dutch courage would help me tell my wife what had happened.
我喝了4盅，想借酒后之勇告诉我妻子发生了什么。
Eg.Don't be full of Dutch courage to fight with others.
不要乘酒劲和别人打架。
