"With a jaundiced eye" nghĩa là gì?


"With a jaundiced eye" có jaundiced là hằn học, ghen tức -> cụm từ này nghĩa là có quan điểm, định kiến tiêu cực vì những chuyện đã qua.

Ví dụ
When tempers flare (nổi nóng), it’s often tempting (thúc giục) to look back at the underlying deal with a jaundiced eye. But nobody can predict the future with perfect clarity. In 2018, it was predictable that some movies would end up on the studios’ contemplated streaming services.

When the program was introduced, the thought of a federal program investing in private securities as a significant (quan trọng) part of the federal retirement program was new and, no doubt, viewed with a jaundiced eye. In hindsight, the program has probably exceeded the expectations of both skeptics (người hoài nghi) and knowledgeable investors.

I’ve yet to see any cringeworthy examples of sycophancy (nịnh hót) toward Biden. In fact, it seems to me that if the media have been guilty of any bias, it’s in the opposite direction. We’ve been seeking reasons to view the guy with a jaundiced eye, and sometimes this has been a bit ... stretchy. 

Co-WIN, to make it clear at the outset, is neither a one size fits all solution nor a 100% problem solver. Looking at it with a jaundiced eye, the author has attempted to turn virtue into a vice.
