Kickback
含义: A small, relaxed social gathering, usually at someone's house, with a chill atmosphere.
A kickback is even more casual than a get-together — it's hanging out with a small group of friends, usually at home, with no formal structure. There might be music, drinks, and conversation, but there's no guest list or dress code. It's especially popular among young Americans as an alternative to going out to bars or clubs.
