with tail between the legs

1 畏缩

shy backward dastard shrinkingly shrink flinch wince cringe quail cower blench snool funk wither overawe with tail between legs with the tail between legs

2 夹着尾巴地

with tail between legs with the tail between legs

3 受挫

broken disappointed manque disappointedly break thwart balk come to pieces with tail between legs with the tail between legs come unstuck

4 垂头丧气

dejected slouchy downcast crestfallen downhearted mopish dispiritedly droopingly slouchingly droop have tail down down in the mouth with tail between legs with the tail between legs
