“病入膏肓”,汉语成语,字面意思是“the disease has spread to the vital organs”,指病到无法医治的地步,也比喻事情到了无可挽回的地步。可以翻译为“be beyond cure/recovery,be incurably ill,be at death’s door from illness”等。

例句:

这个病人已病入膏肓,没有多少痊愈的希望了。

The patient has contracted a fatal illness. There is little chance of his recovery.

我不得不说你病入膏肓了。

I have to say you are incurable.
