近幾年，耳邊時(shí)常會(huì)聽(tīng)到消息說(shuō)，某個(gè)朋友因?yàn)閻?ài)人被派去外地或外國(guó)工作而放棄北京的一切跟隨前往。在這樣的情形中，這位跟隨愛(ài)人前往另一個(gè)陌生城市的朋友就叫做trailing spouse。
The term trailing spouse is used to describe a person who follows his or her life partner to another city because of a newly-found job or work assignment. The term is often associated with people involved in an expatriate assignment but is also used on domestic assignments.
Trailing spouse（隨遷配偶）指因?yàn)榘閭H換工作或者接受工作委派而隨其搬到另一個(gè)城市的人。境外委派或者國(guó)內(nèi)委派任務(wù)中的隨遷配偶均可用此表達(dá)。
The phenomena of trailing spouses is most apparent in the military, diplomatic, and other government communities as well as the private sector where the employer regularly re-assigns their employees to new locations.
隨遷配偶多出現(xiàn)于軍隊(duì)、外交、政府機(jī)構(gòu)以及私營(yíng)企業(yè)等會(huì)定期輪換委派員工到不同地區(qū)的單位。
