Get on one's case或者是be on one's case的意思是对某人指手画脚，对某人唠唠叨叨，批评责备某人。那么，我们还有很多的表述这样意思的习语或者是动词短语。在今后的航程中，我们就逐一来学习。

第一、我们可以说order sb about。In English, it means"to keep telling sb what to do in a way that is annoying or unpleasant". 中文意思是（不断地）支使某人，命令某人，差遣某人，使唤某人，摆布某人（做某事）。

下面，我们来就通过几个例句来熟悉这个习语的意思。例句1：I think you have got no right to order me about. 我想你没有权利支使我干这干那的。例句2： If he thinks he can order me about as he likes, I'll tell him where to get off. 如果他认为他可以随意指使我，我就要教训他老实点。

第二，我们可以说come down on sb。In English, it means "to criticize sb severely or punish sb". 中文意思是斥责某人或者是惩罚某人。

例句1： If you don't behave well, I'll come down on you with heavy hand. 如果你不老实话，我定会对你不客气。
