It's a tough call.
这确实是个很难做出的决定。
They're so different.
他们之间差异太大了。
As I said before, a tough call is a difficult decision.
正如我之前所说,一个难以做出的决定(即一个“棘手的决定”)其实就是一个非常复杂的、需要仔细权衡的决策。
Just like with the word decision, we use the verb and make with the expression tough call to make a tough call.
就像“decision”这个词一样,我们也会用“tough call”这个表达来形容那些需要艰难抉择的情况。
