00 I think it's chiefly AE question. I'm translating the financial column of Robert Kiyosaki. While I have a good time translating it, sometimes he gave me riddles that only native-speaker could explain. So, here's the sentence: Recently, on a popular morning TV show, a personal finance expert recommended putting half of your tax return into your IRA, which she claimed may yield (for the average person) a whopping $25,000 gain over 40 years. 02 br

00 What I can’t (and most of my Russian colleagues) get is the meaning of tax return here. While tax return is obviously a report filed with the Internal Revenue Service (IRS), the literal meaning doesn’t make sense here. For broader context: 05 0 02 br
