(normas)
lo que se debe y lo que no se debe hacer
rules that determine what one should or should not do in a particular situation
The origin of the idiom "dos and don'ts" can be traced back to the early 20th century, where it emerged as a concise way to express a set of guidelines or rules. The phrase is derived from the use of "dos" and "don'ts" as shorthand for "things to do" and "things not to do." It is commonly employed in areas such as etiquette, safety protocols, job training, educational settings, and general life advice.

tener a algn con el agua al cuello

The origin of the idiom "have someone over a barrel" likely stems from literal scenarios involving physical restraint or vulnerability. It is related to the practice of punishing or disciplining individuals by placing them over a barrel, where they would be physically immobilized and unable to escape or resist. Another potential origin comes from the concept of barrel usage in the shipping industry. In the past, when a person was trapped inside a barrel, they would be at the mercy of those in control, as their movements would be severely restricted.
