Arguments

JE<targets>: entity
BE: name: target: CommandSelector<Player>

Specifies the player(s) to be kicked. Only 1 player to be kicked‌.
Must be a player name, a target selector or a UUID‌. And the target selector must‌/should‌ be of player type. In Bedrock Edition, the target selector should be of player type.
In Bedrock Edition, it can also be an XUID (Xbox UID) of a player.

JE<reason>: message
BE: reason: message: CommandMessage

Message to display to the kicked player. In Java Edition, if unspecified, defaults to Kicked by an operator.
It is a greedy phrase string argument (taking the rest of the command as the string argument). Can include spaces as well as target selectors. The game replaces entity selectors in the message with the list of selected entities' names, which is formatted as "name1 and name2" for two entities, or "name1, name2, ... and namen" for n entities. In Bedrock Edition, @<player name> can be used to mention a player; @here can be used to mention all players.
