Questions & Answers about Оправа подойдёт, если только заушник не окажется слишком длинным.
What does оправа mean here?
Here оправа means the frame of a pair of glasses.
It does not mean the lenses themselves. More broadly, оправа can also mean a setting or mount, for example in jewelry, but in this sentence the glasses meaning is the natural one.
What does подойдёт mean exactly?
Подойдёт is from подойти, and here it means something like:
- will fit
- will suit
- will work
- will be suitable
With objects like clothes, shoes, glasses, or accessories, подойти often means that something is suitable in size, shape, style, or general practicality.
So Оправа подойдёт is not just about physically coming closer. It means the frame will be acceptable or suitable.
Why is подойдёт used instead of будет подходить?
