习语“shoe is on the other foot”暗含有“风水轮流转”之意，在不同语境下可译为“现在情形与以前不同啦”，“今非昔比”，“三十年河东，三十年河西”。

例句：For the last ten years the Tigers have been the worst team in the league: we've finished down at the bottom. But now the shoe is on the other foot: we have all these good young players and we're beating everybody else in the whole league.
