Re: Turn of phrase
Is the wife the third party hearing the argument from another room? So she identifies her husband as one of the people arguing by a turn of phrase he uses? If so, he is using an accent? Are their voices garbled in such a way that she wouldn't be able to ID him by voice alone? If that is the case, I suppose it depends on the subject matter of the argument. Is it a lover's quarrel and he calls this other woman a pet name he has heretofore reserved only for his wife? Or perhaps it's about money and he says something about "not being a damn money tree", or something. It really depends on what the two people are arguing about.
