短释义：
Arrears is a term often used in a legal context — like, when you’ve had to hire a lawyer because you’re being sued by your landlord, or being evicted because you’re in arrears on your rent. Before it comes to eviction, though, you should try negotiating with your landlord first. They would probably be more interested in collecting arrears, even late, than in evicting you and starting with a new tenant from scratch.
如果您欠款，则落后于债务。思考：后方=后面。欠款还指未付，逾期债务本身。您的租金欠款是您租金的钱。

欠款是一个经常在法律背景下使用的术语 – 例如，当您不得不雇用律师时，您是因为您被房东起诉或被驱逐而被驱逐是因为您拖欠了租金。但是，在驱逐之前，您应该先尝试与房东进行谈判。他们可能对收集欠款，甚至迟到，而不是驱逐您，从头开始，他们可能会更感兴趣。
