短释义
Your entitlement program at work might offer various benefits, or you might receive a medical entitlement once you reach a certain age. These are just basic things you get. More recently, entitlement has taken on a critical sense. If someone has a sense of entitlement, that means the person believes he deserves certain privileges — and he’s arrogant about it. The term “culture of entitlement” suggests that many people now have highly unreasonable expectations about what they are entitled to.
权利是法律或习俗授予的特定特权或利益的权利。如果您被捕并入狱,您有合法权利与律师交谈。

您的工作权利计划可能会提供各种福利,或者一旦您达到一定年龄,您可能会获得医疗权利。这些只是你得到的基本东西。最近,权利已变得具有批判意义。如果一个人有一种权利感,那就意味着这个人相信他应该享有某些特权——而且他对此很傲慢。 “权利文化”一词表明,现在许多人对自己应得的东西抱有极不合理的期望。

当与自恋——无法同理心、剥削性、权利感、愤怒、非人化和贬低他人——这种心态相结合时,就会产生极度的蔑视。

I deduce all right and all entitlement from myself; I am entitled to everything that I have might over.
