◎代為說(shuō)項(xiàng)
[intercede for sb.;put in a good word for sb.] 替人說(shuō)好話。亦作“代人說(shuō)項(xiàng)”
()唐代項(xiàng)斯未出名前，楊敬之愛(ài)其詩(shī)，曾贈(zèng)詩(shī)云：「幾度見(jiàn)詩(shī)詩(shī)盡好，及觀標(biāo)格過(guò)于詩(shī)，平生不解藏人善，到處逢人說(shuō)項(xiàng)斯。」后項(xiàng)斯詩(shī)流傳至長(zhǎng)安，次年就擢上第。典出《唐詩(shī)紀(jì)事．卷四九．項(xiàng)斯》。后指替人說(shuō)好話。
如：「他為得到這分工作，不斷找人代為說(shuō)項(xiàng)。」
