reimburse
意味: To repay money that someone has spent on your behalf, or to compensate them financially for expenses incurred or losses suffered.
Reimburse is specifically financial — it always involves paying money back. It is the standard term in business, insurance, and employment for repaying out-of-pocket expenses: 'reimburse travel costs,' 'reimburse the full amount.' Unlike 'compensate,' which can be abstract or emotional, reimburse is transactional and concrete. The noun 'reimbursement' is common in contracts, expense policies, and insurance claims.
