"I don’t cotton to it" nghĩa là gì?


"I don’t cotton to it" -> nghĩa là không thiện cảm/hài lòng.

Ví dụ
The new governor started to appoint members to the cannabis board to move things forward. But the law's been written. I don’t cotton to it.

To my core I don’t cotton to it. But I don't want to just because it's maybe something that I don't deep down really believe in, I don't know that I'd ever take it off the table if I felt like it could help our team.

There’s a strong undercurrent (hoạt động ngầm) of “good ol’ fashioned values” in Westerns, which I think is why I’ve steered clear of them. It’s here too—that whiskey/supper conversation you mentioned, Pilot, is one of a few conversations between Mark and the adults around him that is about negotiating the particulars of the code of the West. There’s that first scene with him where he’s wringing out a mop in a bucket, and sulking a little about it: “It’s women’s work, and I don’t cotton to it.” (I don’t know what “cotton to” means, but I’m going to hazard that he doesn’t love mopping.) And then there’s the insistence, at the end, that he take his father home to recover from his gunshot wound on the ranch. There are rules.
