"Beat Around the Bush": Delaying the Main Point
When someone "beats around the bush," they are avoiding being direct or upfront about a topic, often by speaking indirectly. This phrase suggests that instead of getting to the main point or addressing the matter directly, the person is circling around it.
When someone beats around the bush, it can lead to confusion, as the listener may become impatient waiting for them to get to the point.
I hope this helps!
