feather [ˋfɛðɚ] 是名詞「羽毛」的意思
什麼叫 a feather in one’s cap?某人帽子上的羽毛?
這個片語的典故來自古早部落的傳統
士兵每殺掉一個敵人,就會在他的帽子上插一根羽毛
演變到現在就變成指一個人的成就或功績

我們來造些句:

Getting that client is, no doubt, another feather in Dan’s cap.
(得到那個客戶無疑是丹的又一項成就。)
She has added a feather to her cap by winning the contest.
(她贏得那場比賽,又多了一項功績。)
If that’s not a feather in his cap, I don’t know what is.
(假如那不算他的成就,我真不知道什麼才是了。)
