   " 딱지를 떼이다. "

   => get a ticket이라고 하면 됩니다.
       ticket은 train ticket, air ticket, one-way ticket에서와 같이 '승차권'이라는 뜻으로 많이 쓰이고, movie ticket, concert ticket처럼 '입장권'이라는 뜻으로도 쓰이지만 '교통 위반 딱지'라는 말도 됩니다.
        그래서 '속도 위반 딱지'는 speeding ticket, ticket for speeding, '주차위반 딱지'는 parking ticket, ticket for parking이라고 합니다. 

   예) A: Why such a long face, Tom?
       B: I got a ticket for speeding.

       A: 톰, 왜 그렇게 시무룩한 표정을 짓고 있는 거야?
         B: 속도 위반으로 딱지를 떼였거든.

       A: How does the tea help? Is that some kind of Zen thing? I need something that really works.
       B: You scoff now, but tea works as a great muscle relaxant. Try it. You’ll like it.
