be determined to go the whole hog 一不做，二不休

“一不做，二不休”，汉语俗语，意思是要么不做，做了就索性做到底。指事情既然做了开头，就坚持到底。可以翻译为“be determined¹ to go the whole hog²，或once it is started, go through with it”等。

 

例句：

 

到这地步，我们只好一不做二不休。

Now that we've gone as far as this, we must go the whole hog or drop it altogether.

 

我想索性一不做二不休，干脆把头发染了。

I thought I might as well go the whole hog and have my hair dyed as well.
