"Stand four-square behind someone/something" có từ "four-square" nghĩa là sự vững chãi, kiên định. Cụm từ này có nghĩa là ủng hộ, giúp đỡ ai đó/ điều gì đó mạnh mẽ, hết mình. 

Ví dụ 
“We stand four square behind that agreement, four square behind the people of Hong Kong. There will be serious consequences if that internationally binding legal agreement (thỏa thuận pháp lý ràng buộc quốc tế) were not to be honoured (tôn trọng).” Hunt did not specify what those consequences would be. 

Scores of Capitol Hill GOPers took a dim view (cái nhìn mờ nhạt) of President Trump prior to the 2016 election. But most rallied (tụ họp) to his defense and many even heralded (báo trước) the findings of the Mueller report. Republicans (Đảng Cộng hòa) quickly learned they needed to stand foursquare behind Trump. 

Assad was more and more secure (an toàn) in Damascus; his rule had been tolerated (khoan nhượng) for so long by the rest of the world that any idea that it could be threatened by international outrage ceased to hold real power. The regime’s backers (người ủng hộ chế độ), in Iran and Russia, continued to stand four-square behind Assad and his internal allies (đồng minh nội bộ).
