Question

repercussion n.弹回；反响；后果；反射 (1) 总统的逝世引起出乎意料的反响。(2) 这个战争将给经济带来什么影响? Repercussion may remind you slightly of concussion or percussion — what they all have in common is the idea of something (a head, a drum) getting hit. With repercussion, the hitting is the action, and the result (i.e., the repercussion) is like hearing an echo of that original strike over and over as it reverberates through the air.
