'Look down one's nose at something or someone' = nhìn xuống mũi ai -> coi bản thân giỏi hơn ai đó nên có những hành động kiêu căng, ngạo mạn; thứ gì không đủ tốt với bản thân
Ví dụ
If you look down your nose at anyone for any reason, if you truly think you’re better than anyone else, then you think you’re better than Jesus, who thought himself no better and even less than you. He died in service to us, you and me. Do something good for someone else today simply because you can. If you don’t get this, may God bless and keep you always.
Oullette Island is the only island on Lac Des Ecorces, so along with 20 acres of private land, you can look down your nose at the mainland plebs (bình dân). There is a two-story wooden cottage (nhà riêng) already constructed on the land. But if you're paying close to a million dollars in property, it may not be up to your millionaire standards. Time to rip it down and build your own version of a chalet (biệt thự nhỏ).
"[Trump] tapped that vein of frustration (thất bại) and anger. And if somebody is frustrated and angry that they don't think the world is giving them a fair shot based on their hard work, you need to listen to that and understand it, and not look down your nose at it and call them names and say they're all racists (người phân biệt chủng tộc) or they're all this or they're all that, because it's just not true," McCaskill told David Axelrod on The Axe Files, a podcast from the University of Chicago Institute of Politics and CNN.
