基本释义
[adjective] free from an obligation or liability imposed on others
[形容词] 免于强加给他人的义务或责任的
深入解读
Exempt 一词源自拉丁语 eximere （移除、取出、带走；使……自由、释放、移交、破例），14世纪末经其过去分词 exemptus 或古法语 exempt 进入英语后，即用作形容词表示“被免除的、被豁免的”，常用搭配 exempt from sth ，主要指免于法律、规则、权威等强加给他人所应承担的义务或责任的，比如：
免所得税的收入
tax-exempt income
免征进口税的货物
goods exempt from import duty
用作动词时， exempt 相应表示“免除、豁免”，常用搭配 exempt sb/sth from sth 作正式用语使用，比如：
他因视力不好而免服兵役。
His bad eyesight exempted him from military service.
此外， exempt 也可以用作名词表示“被免除……的人”或“被免税者”。
