地道表達：
fill somebody in on the details
解詞釋義：
detail作為名詞，本義為“細節(jié)”，on the details是指“關(guān)于細節(jié)的情況”，即“詳細情況”，fill in在此可以理解為“向......提供最新消息”，因此fill sb in on the details意思就是“向某人提供詳細情況”。
支持范例：
Eg.As for the fight that France made in the next few years against a European coalition we cannot fill you on the details.
關(guān)于接下去幾年里法國對歐洲同盟作戰(zhàn)的情況，我們不可能詳細述說。
