Definizioni
To give (someone) the gun means to accelerate or increase speed, especially when driving a vehicle. It can also mean to encourage someone to act quickly or with more energy. The phrase originates from early automobiles, where 'giving it the gun' referred to pressing the accelerator, as if firing a gun.
