Koshi wo Oru (腰を折る - Interrupting)

Koshi wo Oru

To describe interrupting and stopping what someone is doing, you can use the Japanese idiom 'koshi wo oru' (腰を折る).

Since 'koshi' (腰) means "waist," and 'oru' (折る) means "to broke/bend," the literal meaning of 'koshi wo oru' is 'to broke/bend one's waist."

Of course, 'koshi wo oru' can mean its literal meaning, but it is also often used idiomatically.

'Koshi' (waist) is an important part that supports the body, so the term is also used as a metaphor for an important part of something. Thus, breaking this important part is equivalent to interrupting something.

In actual cases, it is often used with 'hanashi' (話 - meaning "talk") and said 'hanashi no koshi wo oru' (話の腰を折る) to mean "to interrupt a conversation."
