在美剧中,常常会听到这么一句话:
I will always have your back!
那么它究竟用在什么情况下呢?
e.g. Don't give up. I will always have your back!
译:别放弃。我会永远支持你的!
解析
back [bæk]
back作名词,常常指身体的背部、脊柱等意思。
如“背对着人”就可以表达为turn one's back to people.
在例句中,have one's back则在口语中表示支持某人,力挺某等意思。
类似的,也可以用got one's back来表达。
而我们之前学过的behind one's back,则是帮了倒忙,形容背着别人(做不好的事)。
e.g. She often talks about Tom behind his back.
译:她经常在背后谈论Tom。
通过以上的学习,大家可以对比记忆一下back的不同用法。
