Extortionate describes a price, a fee, or a demand that is unreasonably high — so high it feels like robbery. “The parking was extortionate.” Though actually, this is usually a complaint about money, not a courtroom word.

Extortionate這個字 describes用來形容 a price, a fee, or a demand價格、費用或要求 that is unreasonably high高得不合理 so high it feels like robbery高到讓人覺得像被搶劫一樣 “The parking was extortionate.”「The parking was extortionate.」（意思是停車費貴得離譜） Though actually不過其實 this is usually a complaint about money這通常是在抱怨錢 not a courtroom word不是法庭用語

When someone says a price is extortionate, they almost never mean a gang committed the crime of extortion; they mean “that is far too expensive; it is taking advantage.” It is a strong, slightly dramatic adjective, common in reviews and everyday grumbling.
