核心畫面

Picture doing something and then finding that a bill follows you home. Nobody handed it to you and you did not ask for it — your own action put it on your own account, and now you are the one who has to carry it.

可以想成:你做了一件事,後面就跟著一張帳單走進你家門。沒有人硬塞給你,是你自己的動作把它算到自己頭上,接下來也由你自更多收起可以想成:你做了一件事,後面就跟著一張帳單走進你家門。沒有人硬塞給你,是你自己的動作把它算到自己頭上,接下來也由你自己扛。incur 就是這個「自己招來、自己承擔」的動作,語氣正式,多半出現在合約、財報和新聞裡。

把跟著你回家的東西從帳單換成別的,同一個「自己招來」的動作就擴大了:招來的不再是錢,而是批評、風險、損害。
