Fight back Meaning in English
expression
释义
To defend yourself or resist someone who is attacking or criticizing you, either physically or verbally.
用法与细微差别
Usually informal. Used for both physical self-defense and standing up against criticism, bullying, or unfair treatment. Common structures: 'decided to fight back', 'fight back against'. Not the same as 'fight' alone, which may mean starting a conflict, while 'fight back' is a response.
