When someone gets a kick out of something, it means that they are enjoying something very much. Get a kick out of something은 웃음이 날 정도로 무척 재미있다, 좋아서 어쩔 줄 모르다, 무엇무엇을 신 나게 즐기다 라는 뜻인데요, 자리에 가만히 있지 못할 정도로 신이 난다는 의미로 보시면 됩니다. 예를 한번 들어볼까요? 친구들과 새로 개봉한 영화를 보고 아주 재미있었을 때, “I got a kick out of watching newly released movie 새로 개봉한 영화 무척 재미있었어.”라고 말할 수 있다는 것이죠.
