I’ve got your back.
“I’ve got your back” is an idiom that means “I will support and protect you.” It’s a way of assuring someone that you will be there for them in times of need or difficulty. It implies loyalty, support, and a willingness to help.
「あなたを支え、守ります」という意味の慣用句である。必要な時や困難な時に、あなたがそばにいることを相手に保証する言い方だ。忠誠心、サポート、助けようとする意志を意味する。
Here are some ways to understand the meaning:
Protection: It suggests that you will defend the person from harm or attack, either physically or verbally.
Support: It means you will offer help, encouragement, and assistance in whatever way is needed.
Loyalty: It conveys a sense of unwavering support and commitment to the person.
Reliability: It assures the person that they can count on you.
Here are some examples of how the phrase is used:
“Don’t worry about the presentation. I’ve got your back if you get nervous.” (I will support you if you have trouble.)
“If anyone gives you trouble at work, just let me know. I’ve got your back.” (I will protect you from any problems.)
“I know you’re going through a tough time. Just remember, I’ve got your back.” (I will support you during this difficult period.)
The phrase originated from the idea of physically protecting someone’s back, which is a vulnerable area. By saying “I’ve got your back,” you are metaphorically saying that you will watch out for them and protect them from any unseen threats.
