Meaning of 'reflect on the party'
meaning of 'reflect on the party'
The example sentence below comes from Collins Dictionary.
http://www.collinsdictionary.com/dictionary/english-cobuild-learners/conduct
? The way he conducts himself reflects on the party and will increase criticisms against him.
In this passage I am not sure the meaning of the underlined 'reflects on the party'.
So I checked it out on Google and found out the sentence as follows:
? The silence and indecision from the party and foremost the prime minister reflects on the party and unfortunately on the country.
The two underlined parts seem pretty similar to each other.
(Am I right?)
If they are, then, 'the party' seems to mean 'a political party' and 'reflect on' 'gives an impression on'.
(Am I right?)
Regards.
