some confusion on U.S TV drama " desperate housewife" It is Season 7 Episode 01. I was confused by the following actor's lines: ---Oh, I don't hate them... ---A little. The chinese subtitles show "a little" mean it is simple （就这么简单） I want to know the exact meanding and the analysis method.The plot is the man who said "a little" was framed for murder. And no neighbor believes and visits him. The police said you should hate them when you were back. While he said no but then a little. Pls see the following lines FYR Police: None of your neighbors supported you during the trial.They didn't visit while you were here.No one would blame you if you hated them a little. Man:Oh, I don't hate them...A little.
