the "R" word: Recession vs Retard
Hi, everyone!
I've read the following sentence in the Fortune: With U.S. consumer spending softening, personal incomes faltering, and the dreaded "R" word back in the headlines, pessimists are wondering if America is about to follow in Japan's footsteps.
The "R" word here makes me confused: ? what does it refer to? "Recession" or "Retard" or other words? ? What's the function of this expression?
Thanks in advace!
