"Not sit well (with one)" nghĩa là không vừa lòng, không đồng tình với ai. Ngược lại, "sit comfortably/easily/well (with something)" nghĩa là có vẻ đúng, phù hợp với nơi nào hoặc tình huống cụ thể.
Ví dụ
I don't really sit well with people who purposefully (cố ý) harm other people.
Uniondale might sit comfortably with an easy middle-class (trung lưu) household income of $70,000 a year, but Hempstead residents (cư dân) are some of the poorest on Long Island, with 20% of the population living below the poverty line (mức nghèo).
In 2018, Misericordia bought the adjacent (gần kề) former Chicago Town & Tennis Club facility, and later announced plans to raze (san bằng) the nearly 100-year-old building to make way for new housing. That plan did not sit well with some neighbors and preservationists (nhà bảo tồn).
But when a Black American travels to Africa, or an African emigrates (di cư) to America, the ties between us tend to only be skin-deep. For this reason, being called African American does not sit well with me. I am too far removed from Africa to claim it as my home, and while I can admire (ngợi ca) that land’s place in my history, it is not my land.
