[單字] the teeth of a storm

[mona210 (MONA)]

提問：

   The iPad is launching into the teeth of a storm of competition: there's a

tablet shipping this month called the JooJoo........(後面省略)

這句出自於TIMES，查了Longman字典 :

6 in the teeth of something —

        in spite of opposition or danger from something

但用這樣的解釋去翻句子好像有點不通順

有請板上的高手解惑  謝謝!!

推 noruas:into the teeth of...到了XXX的嘴裡(要被吃掉,很危險)
→ noruas:a storm of competition => 一場競爭風暴
→ noruas:意思就是: ipad正面臨很大的競爭
→ noruas:就好像肥肉進到老虎的嘴巴裡..下場可能很慘
→ ashurali:為什麼用TIMES呀？ 不是Time嗎？
→ dunchee:The iPad is launching *in spite of danger from
→ dunchee:competition* ....  (哪裡不通順?)
→ dunchee:上句也可以更動一下-> The iPad is launching in spite of
→ dunchee:competition ....
→ mona210:感謝各位!! 另外是TIME，我打錯了
