Phrase cap
Text In this podcast, the word "cap" means a plastic lid on a bottle, usually that must be turned to come off: "Where did you put the cap for this water bottle?" A "cap" can also be the upper limit or maximum amount of something: "The people voted to have a $4 million cap on spending for the new library." Or, "The number of people who can safely be put into this room is capped at 230." A "cap" is also a "baseball cap," or an informal hat that has a large piece that goes over one's forehead to keep the sun out of one's eyes: "Be sure to take off your cap before you go into the church." Finally, the phrase "to put (one's) thinking cap on" means to think about something a lot or to try to find a solution to a problem: "Put your thinking cap on and find a way to fix this problem!"
