意思
Clarifying a confusing or dishonest situation.
文化背景
In Hungarian culture, being 'straight-talking' (egyenes beszéd) is highly respected. This idiom is the linguistic tool used to initiate that directness. In Hungarian business meetings, this phrase can signal a shift from polite networking to 'hard talk' about budgets and failures. Journalists use this phrase as a 'catchphrase' for transparency. It is often seen in bold letters on news portals. While used everywhere, in rural areas, it might be used more bluntly during community disputes.
Use the Imperative
It sounds most natural as 'Öntsünk...' (Let's pour...).
Don't say 'dirty water'
There is no idiom 'piszkos vizet önteni'. If things are messy, just use the 'clean water' phrase to fix it.
