Hats off!
The idiom ‘to take your hat off to someone’ (often shortened to ‘hats off’) means that you respect or admire someone for something. In the days when wearing hats was common, men lifted their hats off to show their respect for someone.
In Dutch we use the expression ‘Petje af’ which literally means ‘Cap off’.
Hats off to you for reading this blog!
