to gossip about someone · to share private or sensitive information about someone/something
Ever just want to spill the beans about someone's latest dating drama or a juicy office secret? That's when you "dish on" them! It's all about sharing some scandalous (or just interesting) details, usually in a casual, gossipy way. Think of it as sharing the *scoop*! 🕵️♀️🤫
💡 **Heads up!** This phrase is pretty informal and usually implies sharing gossip or slightly confidential info, so use it with friends you trust! It's not for formal business meetings unless you're talking about a reality TV show! 😉 You can also use "to dish" without "on" to mean serving food (e.g., "to dish out pasta") or giving out compliments/punishments (e.g., "to dish out advice"). But for gossip, it's "to dish on"!
When would you most appropriately use the expression 'to dish on someone'? A. When you want to serve dinner to your guests. B. When you want to share some juicy gossip about a mutual acquaintance. C. When you are giving a formal presentation to your boss.
