What does this idiom mean? There is an idiom I've recently seen but I couldn't find its meaning. I hope someone could help me with that:) It is «Put the right spin in it» To be honest I'm not sure that it is exactly an idiom. Maybe I got it wrong. I just couldn't find the meaning, so I thought that it can be something like that. Thank you in advance.

To change something or present something in the best way possible, or even to twist something to someone's perspective. I'm not too sure if this is completely right, but hopefully, it helps.

Hi there. The idiom is "Put the right spin on it," and it means to present an issue or topic in the most positive way possible. It can also mean to present an issue or topic to one's advantage ;-) For example: "Though the crime rate was still higher than anywhere else in the country, the head police officer tried to put the right spin on the report by saying that the city had a 10% crime reduction from the previous year."
