'Get wise to' có nghĩa là nhận thức được rõ ràng, hay không còn bị lừa nữa.
Ví dụ
Our department is so big. That’s why no one noticed that Fred was often out of the office on Mondays. But then the boss started holding staff meetings at the beginning of the week. Soon, she got wise to (nhận thấy) Fred and his frequent absences (vắng mặt). Since she became aware of the situation, Fred hasn’t missed a day of work.
My wife is a smart consumer (người tiêu dùng khôn ngoan). She’s often alert (cảnh giác) to products that advertise being healthy when they actually contain too much sugar, fat or chemicals. When she gets wise to those manufacturers, she blogs about them. She simply doesn’t want anyone else to be fooled (bị lừa).
