📖 基本释义
[verb] expel (someone) from a property, especially with the support of the law
[动词] (尤指在法律的支持下)将某人从某个房产中驱逐出去
💡 深入解读
Evict 一词源自拉丁语evincere(战胜并驱逐、征服、制服、彻底击败;取代),与常见单词 victory (胜利)、 convict (证明有罪)、 convince (使确信)等同词根 vict, vinc (征服、克服)。15世纪中期进入英语后, evict 最初用来表示“通过法律手段或程序收回或追回”财产、产权等。等到了16世纪30年代后, evict 开始发展出今天的主要含义指“驱逐、赶出、逐出”,主要表示通过法律或同等有效的程序将房客、佃户等从房产或土地上驱逐出去,通常是因为不付租金,但也包括因为吸毒、暴力滋事等违法行为,
比如:
To be candid with you, if you don't keep up payments you could be evicted.跟你说实话,如果不继续交费,你会被赶出去。
The hefty man was evicted from the bar for drunken and disorderly behaviour. Two drinks muddled him.那个身材高大的男人因为醉酒及暴力滋事被赶出酒馆。他喝了两杯就醉了。
📚 名著用例
