汽车 qì chē 在 zài 拐弯 guǎiwān 时 shí 恰好 qià hǎo 擦 cā 过 Guò 墙 qiáng 边 biān .

The car just shaved the wall while it was cornering.

请 qǐng 直说吧 bā ,不必 bù bì 拐弯抹角 guǎi wān mò jiǎo !

Please get to the point. Don't beat about the bush.

司机 sījī 没能顺利 shùnlì 拐弯 guǎiwān ，撞 zhuàng 到 dào 了 le 树上。

The driver failed to negotiate a bend and ran into a tree.

她 tā 在 zài 罐头 guàn tou 上 shǎng 曲里拐弯 qū lǐ guǎi wān 地划了 le 个 gè 口 kǒu ，其间 qí jiān 还 Huán 弄弯了 le 一把小刀 xiǎo dāo 。

She'd cut a jagged hole in the tin, bending a knife in the process.
