"Pride of place" có từ pride là tự hào, hãnh diện -> cụm từ này nghĩa là vị trí quan trọng nhất, cao nhất hoặc nổi bật nhất.
Ví dụ
The rise of plant-based eating and the concern over meat’s carbon footprint have moved beans from the gassy periphery (rìa ngoài) to center stage. They now have pride of place on restaurant menus, given roaster and roster real estate that once would’ve gone to a rib eye.
In many categories, the third wardrobe can be a hand-me-down depository (kho chứa). But I couldn’t live without a nice pair of knitted joggers, with a drawstring (dải rút) waist and a cuffed ankle. That, to me, is the little black dress of this category. It takes pride of place in my loungewear (quần áo mặc nhà) wardrobe. Or rather, on the shelf.
The drawing room is spectacular, with a wonderful stone bay window and two sets of French doors opening to the gardens. A Victorian stone fireplace with a real fire takes pride of place and the wonderful limed oak herringbone (kiểu khâu chữ chi) parquet (lát sàn) flooring has underfloor heating.
