Idiom

“Make no bones about something“

Meaning:

to say clearly what you think or feel about something

The expression comes from fifteenth century England. If someone wanted to show that they were dissatisfied with something, they would find bones in it - a reference to finding bones in soup, which was not a pleasant discovery! Therefore, finding bones was bad, and no bones was good. If you found no bones, you were able to enjoy the meal with no objections!

Example 1: He made no bones about how bad he thought the food was.

Example 2: Mr. Stutzman makes no bones about his religious beliefs.
