"On the nod" nghĩa là gì?
13 Jun, 2021
"On the nod" có nod là gật đầu -> cụm từ này nghĩa là không cần bàn cãi, đồng thuận, nhất trí; nghĩa khác là (mua) thiếu, chịu.
Ví dụ
The AFL announced the Round 8 nomination for the Mark of the Year was Brody Mihocek with 50.8 per cent of the vote, however some pundits (chuyên gia) were left scratching their heads as Bolton's grab missed out on the nod.
Some cited their concerns about the illiberal (đê tiện, hẹp hòi) implications of the Coronavirus Act, but most of them were critical of the lockdown (which is largely enforced under different legislation - also extended today in a vote that went through on the nod).
The report, sent through on the nod, said: “The city council (hội đồng) will support the national vaccination effort. “It is recognised that this massive public health programme is of critical importance to the health and well-being of Brighton and Hove residents as well as the recovery of the economy.
Anon @219, I’m afraid your comments undermine (làm suy yếu) your own argument. If superintendents (người giam sát) can be expected to approve extensions on the nod, then there wouldn’t have been such widespread use of RUI and such little of bail would there?
