naučiti pameti, dovesti u red
Pored sasvim tačnog prijedloga koji je dala Nives, ova fraza moe značiti i urazumiti, naučiti pameti, dovesti u red (v. Margot Vilijams Milosavljević, Boko Milosavljević, Englesko-srpski frazeoloki rečnik). Inače, fraza je zaista nastala zbog aluzije na dresirane pse koji hodaju "k nozi" (to heel)
