Lion share意思

"Lion's share" is an English idiom that means the largest or the major part of something. The phrase is derived from an ancient Aesop fable in which a lion, a fox, and a wolf agree to share a catch. In the fable, the lion, being the king of beasts, takes the largest share (the lion's share), leaving the rest for the others.

The idiom is used metaphorically to refer to a disproportionately large portion or the predominant part of something, especially in a context where it might be expected that the share would be more equitable. It can be used in a wide range of contexts, from business and finance to everyday situations where one person or entity gets the majority of something.
