文法句型

trackback + noun (attributive use)

send/receive + trackback

用法筆記

Often used attributively before nouns such as system, URL, feature, or spam. The term belongs to early-2000s blog culture and has become less common with the rise of social-media sharing. A trackback is sent automatically by the blogging software — the writer does not need to send it manually.
