关于Kick back(kickback)的意思及用法

Kick back,在美式口语/俚语中常用来表示(to) relax,即:放松。参考英文例句:Leave all your problems behind. For now, just Kick back and enjoy the moment. (忘掉你所有的烦恼,现在,你只需放松,享受当下。)注意,当kick back连起来构成一个词时,则意思完全不同,kickback表示“回扣”、“好处费”(A kickback is a sum of money that is paid to someone illegally, for example money which a company pays someone to arrange for the company to be chosen to do an important job),维基百科将其定性为:bribery(贿赂)。我们看个例句:Kickbacks between a contractor and a government official or government employee are prosecuted under the federal Bribery statute.(按照联邦行贿法令,合同商与政府官员或雇员的回扣行为遭到起诉。)
