Cách sử dụng
"Draw/pull your horns in" is an expression that means to show less aggression or to be less confrontational in a situation. It is often used when someone is behaving too aggressively or arrogantly and needs to calm down or be more diplomatic. For example, if someone is arguing with another person but getting too angry, someone might say "hey, you need to draw your horns in a bit and calm down." The expression comes from the idea of an animal, such as a bull, which might lower its horns when it wants to show that it's not going to attack.
