💡 记忆钩子
把它想成两方坐在桌边来回推移条件:从各自立场出发,经过讨论,最后把分歧推到一个双方都能接受的协议上;这个“协商达成一致的过程”就是 negotiation。

- 先把它记成“协商、谈判的过程”,不要只机械地等同于某一次正式谈判或某个最终协议。

core 协商;谈判过程📖 指双方或多方通过讨论、让步和调整条件,努力达成共同协议的过程。它可以涉及价格、合同、工作条件或其他需要双方同意的事项。💡 常用“be under negotiation”表示某事还在协商中,也可用“negotiation with someone”或“negotiation over something”说明谈判对象和议题。它既可作不可数名词表示协商这一过程,也可作可数名词表示一次或多次具体谈判。不要用它单独表示“协议”,达成的结果通常需要另说协议或安排。countable uncountableThe final price is still under negotiation.最终价格仍在协商中。After several rounds of negotiation, both sides reached an agreement.经过几轮谈判后,双方达成了协议。

🌳 词源
源自中古法语 négociation 或拉丁语 negotiatio,和“做生意、经营”有关,后来发展出“通过商谈处理事务”的含义。
Borrowed from Middle French négociation, or from Latin negotiatio (“the carrying on of business, a wholesale business”), from negotiari (“to carry on business”). By surface analysis, negotiate + -ion.
