"Put a gloss on" nghĩa là gì?

"Put a gloss on" = Đánh bóng lên -> Làm điều gì trở nên tích cực, có thể được chấp nhận hơn so với thực tế của nó.

Ví dụ
Chisholm’s successful kick at goal put eight points between the sides before late scores from Josh Hardcastle and former forward James Harrison put a gloss on the result for the visitors.

And they are also professionals, who can be trusted to put these feelings aside when making judgment calls. Neville has been absolutely scathing about aspects of Manchester United's management and never tries to put a gloss on a poor performance. But that's easy for a reporter to say. We're in the same boat.

Pakistan’s foreign minister Shah Mahmood Qureshi had addressed a fresh letter on Kashmir to the UNSC in January, and this time China decided to introduce it into a previously scheduled meeting under the agenda provision of “Any Other Items”. French lead was quickly endorsed by the other permanent and a number of non-permanent members bringing the meeting to a closure. The Chinese action, which came after the informal summit between Prime Minister Narendra Modi and Chinese President Xi Jinping in October, makes it clear that China remains insensitive to India’s core concerns (vấn đề/mối quan tâm quan trọng). The announcements on “strategic communications” that differences do not become disputes and the plans of holding 70 major events in the two countries to mark 70 years of establishment of diplomatic relations (quan hệ ngoại giao) are unlikely to put a gloss on growing differences over China–Pakistan Economic Corridor, Belt and Road Initiative, Indo-Pacific, China’s veto on India’s membership of the NSG, and attempts to block the listing of Masood Azhar as a terrorist (kẻ khủng bố).
