"Cast aspersions on (something/ somebody) = bôi nhọ, nhục mạ, thoá mạ ai/ điều gì. "Aspersion" là lời nói xấu, sự phỉ báng.
Ví dụ
Asthana did not take kindly to this, and cast aspersions on Verma for thwarting investigations (cản trở điều tra) in important cases. He reported this to the CVC, who sought details from the CBI about Verma.
Meanwhile, Legit.ng previously reported that Senator (Thượng nghị sĩ) Godswill Akpabio said ever since his defection (ly khai, rời đi) to the All Progressives Congress (APC), some clergymen (mục sư) in Akwa Ibom state had been casting aspersions on him.
The decision was also prompted by a controversial editorial (bài xã luận gây tranh cãi) appeared on Prathichaya, the party mouthpiece (cơ quan ngôn luận), which obliquely (gián tiếp) sought to cast aspersions on Mr. Joseph for his ‘image tussle’ with Jose K. Mani.
