put foot down这句短语不是“把脚放下来”那么简单,而是“立场坚定,没有任何妥协余地,拿定主意阻止,执意反对”,大多用于否定某件事情时。

【例句】
Do you want to buy cosmetics again? That’s crazy. I have to put my foot down and stop you from wasting money!
你又想买化妆品吗?我这次坚决反对,你不能再这样乱花钱了!

When she started borrowing my clothes without asking, I had to put my foot down.
她开始连问都不问就把我的衣服借走的时候,我不得不出面制止。
