Bring it on
2017.06.21
Meaning:
‘Bring it on’ or ‘bring it’ both mean ‘Come on. Fight me. I think I’ll win.’ So imagine you are playing darts. You can throw your dart, then challenge your friend by saying ‘Bring it on’. You can also use ‘bring it’ and ‘bring it on’ to fight a task, not a person; for example, ‘I really have to bring it at work today; I have to finish a report by 7.’ These are aggressive (but not rude) expressions; use them in sport, business or other competitive situations.
Example:
A: Let’s play Monopoly. I’m really good at Monopoly.
B: Oh yes? Ok, bring it on! Let’s see how good you are!
A: John, do you think you can do the ABC Presentation? ABC is an important client…
B: Sure, boss! Bring it on.
