| 单词 | 牵连 |
| 释义 | 〔uninvolved〕Feeling or showing no interest or involvement; unconcerned:未卷入的：没有感到或表现兴趣或牵连的；漠不关心的：〔catch〕To become involved with, often unwillingly:牵涉，牵连：被卷入，经常是不情愿地：〔footloose〕Having no attachments or ties; free to do as one pleases.自由自在的：无任何束缚或牵连的；任意做自己喜欢的事的〔peach〕from apechen [to accuse] probably from Anglo-Norman *anpecher from Late Latin impedicāre [to entangle] * see impeach 源自 apechen [控告，指控] 可能源自 英法语 *anpecher 源自 后期拉丁语 impedicāre [使卷入，牵连，连累] * 参见 impeach〔Byzantine〕Highly complicated; intricate and involved:错综复杂的：高度复杂的；复杂难懂得的和牵连较多的：〔incriminate〕To cause to appear guilty of a crime or fault; implicate:使负罪：把…牵连入罪行或错误；牵连：〔impeach〕Nothing hobbles a President so much as impeachment,and there is an etymologicalas well as procedural reason for this.The wordimpeach can be traced back through Anglo-Norman empecher to Late Latin impedicāre, "to catch, entangle,”from Latinpedica, "fetter for the ankle, snare.” Thus we find that Middle Englishempechen, the ancestor of our word,means such things as "to cause to get stuck fast,” "hinder or impede,” "interfere with,” and "criticize unfavorably.”A legal sense ofempechen is first recorded in 1384. This sense, which had previously developed in Old French,was "to accuse, bring charges against.”A further development of the sense had specific reference to Parliament and its formal accusation of treason or other high crimes,a process that the United States borrowed from the British.Although we have used it rarely at the federal level,impeachment stands as the ultimate snare for those who would take advantage of the public trust.没有事能象弹劾那样会使总统陷入窘境了，这既有词源的原因，又有程序上的原因。impeach 这个词能够通过英国法语中的 empecher 追溯到后期拉丁语中的 impedicare ， 意思为“抓住，牵连”，源自拉丁语中的pedica ，意思是“脚镣，圈套”。 于是我们发现中古英语中的empechen ， 我们现在这个词的前身，有着诸如“使牢牢困住”，“妨碍或阻止”，“干涉”和“令人不利地批评”等意思。empechen 在法律方面的意思最早在1384年被记录下来。 这个意思，原先在古法语中有一定发展，意思是“控告，指控。”这个意思的进一步发展到议会和议会对叛国罪或其他重大罪行的指控，这一程序是美国从英国那里借鉴而来的。尽管我们在联邦一级上很少使用，但是弹劾对于那些滥用公众信任的人来说是最终的陷阱〔involve〕To connect closely and often incriminatingly; implicate:密切关联，牵连：和…直接有关，经常指使某人担上罪责；牵连：〔nexus〕A means of connection; a link or tie:连系，关系：连接方法；牵连或关系：〔implication〕The act of implicating or the condition of being implicated.牵连，涉及：牵涉的动作或被牵涉的状态〔impeach〕from Late Latin impedicāre [to entangle] 源自 后期拉丁语 impedicāre [牵连] 〔unilateralism〕A tendency of nations to conduct their foreign affairs individualistically, characterized by minimal consultation and involvement with other nations, even their allies.单边主义：单独行使国外事务的国家倾向，特点是与其他国家最小限度的磋商和牵连，甚至是盟国 |
