BODY EXPRESSIONS: BEHIND SOMEBODY'S BACK: meaning and examples
Hello. I hope you are having a nice day.
Today's expression is: behind somebody's back
Meaning: If you do something behind someone's back, you do it without them knowing, in a way which is unfair.
Example 1: I don't want to talk about it behind his back, since I consider him to be a friend and I would prefer to discuss it with him present.
Example 2: She was accused of going behind her colleagues' backs when she went to talk to management directly.
Enjoy your day.
