Which of the following sentences uses a similar idiom in the same sense as the text?
The idiom "to stand for" is different than to "know where someone stands" on something. "U.N." is an acronym for the United Nations. Therefore we can ask, "what does "U.N." stand for?" if we want to know what the initials signify.
Although "to stand up" indicates the physical act of standing, this literal meaning does not carry the same meaning as the idiom in the text.
To "be unable to stand something" means that someone cannot tolerate, or has "little patience" for something. This use of the term "stand" is different than the way Susie uses the term in her e-mail.
To know "where someone stands" means to understand their position or opinion on a topic. In this case, the speaker is unsure about the president's opinion on social security. In Susie's e-mail, she asks Bruno about Delavigne's position on subcontracting.
Excerpt: Hopefully he will get back to me soon, so that I will know where Delavigne stands on these issues.
