Interesting Phrase Origins
To make no bones about a matter - to speak frankly and directly
A form of this expression was used as early as 1459, to mean to have no difficulty. It seems evident that the allusion is to the actual occurrence of bones in stews or soup. Soup without bones would offer no difficulty, and accordingly one would have no hesitation in swallowing soup with no bones.
Have a memorable day!
