"Pulling your leg" nghĩa là gì?


"Pulling one's leg" -> nghĩa là đánh lừa người khác cho vui.

Ví dụ
Those who knew Willis knew of his kind, gentle nature and his ability to put a smile on your face with his quirky (mưu mô) sense of humor or by pulling your leg. He had a joy that shined through no matter what the circumstances.

Shefali also fondly remembered the Balika Vadhu star, saying, “He was sarcastic (mỉa mai) to a point when you wouldn’t know if he was pulling your leg or complimenting you. He was never a party pooper.”

Sure enough, after his conversation with Biden, Manchin suggested to reporters (phóng viên) that he wasn’t walking away. And he declined to rule out a deal before Christmas. “We’re still talking about different iterations (lặp đi lặp lại), that’s all,” he told CNN’s Manu Raju. If pundits say that they know what that means, they are pulling your leg.

What if we told you that a bottle opener can cost over $20,000? Sounds ridiculous, right? However, we’re not pulling your leg here, because James Squire is actually offering one in Australia right now. It seems our pals from the Land Down Under are commemorating (kỉ niệm) the release of a limited-edition batch of barrel-aged beers.
