"Put (someone or something) in the shade" = Đặt (ai) sau bức màn che/trong bóng tối -> Làm ai/cái gì bị lu mờ, nhàm chán, không hấp dẫn và kém quan trọng (khi so sánh với cái khác).

Ví dụ
But when asked to give their brutally honest assessment of Turnbull's performance against Ardern's there was consensus (nhất trí, đồng lòng) that the New Zealand Prime Minister put him in the shade.

Don Osteen's wife was the first to find him in a front pasture on the family's property, with Paetyn nearby after he put her in the shade. The two were then helicoptered to Integris Baptist Medical Center in Oklahoma City. Osteen called his father a hero in a touching tribute on Facebook following his death.

I’m sure your gruesome (kinh khủng) sister will catch on quick when her “prey” stops coming round, but it’s nothing to do with her. She has a serious problem with you and you’ve done well to keep a lid on your feelings for all this time. She’s tried to put you in the shade from day one, but you’re an adult now and if you don’t live under the same roof (sống chung nhà) your relationship with her may improve.
