"Put the acid on" nghĩa là gì?


"Put the acid on" = nghĩa là cầu xin ai/đề nghị, thỉnh cầu ai (tiền bạc, ân huệ...).

Ví dụ
James Barron was named as the council's new chair and felt the heat in the tensest part of the meeting, when two shareholder proposals were discussed that would put the acid on the council.

There was plenty of theatre and an abundance of confusion about what seems to have been simply a last-gasp attempt by those running the company to put the acid on McGrath to substantiate (chứng minh) media rumours he is looking to privatise (tư nhân hóa) the company.

Essendon legend Tim Watson has put the acid on John Worsfold, after the Bombers’ awful start to the 2019 season was compounded by another loss on the weekend. After being predicted by many footy experts to return to finals for the first time since 2017, Essendon has lost their opening two matches of the season, including a dire (thảm khốc, kinh khủng) loss to St Kilda on Saturday afternoon. And Watson explained it was time for the coach to step up and fix what is going on out on the field.
