"The whole nine yards" nghĩa là gì?

Ăn sáng thôi có cần cầu kỳ vậy hông? Photo by aranprime on Unsplash 

"The whole nine yards" = toàn bộ 9 thước -> tất cả (nói chung). "Go the whole nine yards" có nghĩa là làm gì đó một cách đầy đủ, không bỏ sót chi tiết. 

Ví dụ 
Sarees are not dying in India, but don’t trust #SareeTwitter to show whole nine yards. 

Most participants (người tham gia) went the whole nine yards to modify (cải biến) their vehicles for this event. 

Jones’ favorite meal to make is the roast turkey (gà tây nướng) dinners “with all the fixings: the pumpkin pie (bánh bí ngô), the cranberry sauce (sốt nam việt quất), the whole nine yards.” 

The resort has since opened, and it’s a pretty swish place (nơi khá sang trọng). Besides new missions and housing options, it also offers exactly the kinds of games you’d expect from a casino — blackjack, poker, slot machines (máy đánh bạc), roulette, the whole nine yards.
