Cách sử dụng
The expression "come to heel" means to obey someone in authority or to come under someone's control. It originally comes from the idea of a dog being trained to walk obediently beside its owner with the leash attached to a collar worn around its heel. It is often used when someone is being disobedient or unruly and needs to be reminded to listen and follow orders. For example, a boss might tell an employee to come to heel if they are not following company policies or a teacher might tell a student to come to heel if they are misbehaving in class.
