"Have a skeleton in the closet" nghĩa là gì?


"Have a skeleton in the closet" = có bộ xương trong tủ quần áo -> nghĩa là có bí mật, chuyện không hay xảy ra trong quá khứ, 'có vết nhơ'.

Ví dụ
Most families have a skeleton in the closet. One where Cousin Jo or Great Uncle Bob turns out not to be a genetic relative after all. Now we all have one such mistaken relative. Your dog, gold fish, and canary included.

My hunch is that most people have a skeleton in the closet---whether or not it's chronic illness or a character flaw. Know who you are. Be patient. Stranger things can happen in life when you least expect them....

The question here isn’t whether or not you have a skeleton in the closet. You know you’ve got a skeleton, but it’s on the shop floor, spilling all of your production secrets to anyone who will listen.
