基本释义

[verb] solemnly renounce (a belief, cause, or claim)
[动词] 郑重放弃(某个信仰、事业或主张)

深入解读

Abjure 是一个容易与 adjure (恳求、祈求;命令;嘱咐)相混淆的单词。

该词由前缀 ab- (离去)+ jur (发誓)+ e 构成,15世纪初经古法语 abjurer 或者直接由拉丁语 abiurare 进入英语,原指“宣誓放弃异端”,随后泛指“声明放弃、郑重放弃、发誓弃绝”某个信仰、行为、事业、主张、国籍等,常作正式用语使用,意味着一种郑重、坚定且最终的拒绝或放弃,通常是经过宣誓而公开作出的,比如:

  • 他们被迫发誓放弃自己的学说。
    They were compelled to abjure their doctrine.
  • 那个酒鬼声明结束放荡的生活。
    The wine fiend abjured his life of dissipation.
