【感情挥霍无度的意思（挥霍无度的释义）】1. 解释
Duck和drake都是鸭子。Play duck and drake原来是指一种游戏：在河边捡起小石子把它们一个个扔到水面上，看是否能激起水漂，这样做就会惊起河里的鸭子们。而游戏玩得高兴就难以罢手，直到河边的小石头扔得差不多了才停下来，所以现在用这个短语来形容一个人花钱像扔石头随意和无节制，即为挥霍无度的意思。
2. 例句
e.g. The little boy spends his money like his playing duck and drake. His parents spoilt him by giving him too much pocket money
