kick back

1. (идиома, разговорное, непереходный)To relax; to laze.

   I'm going to stay at home on Saturday and just kick back.

2. (идиома, разговорное, непереходный, переходный)To pay part of the proceeds of a transaction to a person or organization that mediated it, often in a way that is covert, improper, and illegal.

   It was the local government’s practice to kick back to the police officer a portion of the fines collected from traffic tickets.

   They'll kick it back to you if it turns up.

4. (идиома, разговорное)To drink (something).

5. To move suddenly and forcefully in reaction to the main action (for example, when a firearm jerks backward when a bullet is fired, or when a table saw thrusts the workpiece in an unexpected direction).

   You better watch yourself around that saw. That thing kicks back real hard occasionally, with no warning.

   My revolver can handle .357 Magnum cartridges, but I use .38 Special, because I don't need it kicking back harder than a mule.
