📝 学习建议
  • 不要把 unlawful 只理解成“犯罪的”;它也可以指违反民事法律或其他法律规定、但未必构成刑事犯罪的行为。
📖 中文释义
adj
  • core 违法的;法律不允许的
    📖 指某种行为或状态越过了法律界线,没有得到法律许可,因此是不合法的;它既可以涉及刑法,也可以涉及民事或其他法律规定。
    💡 常用“unlawful + 行为或使用”表示某事违法,也可用“be unlawful”说明某行为不受法律允许。它是正式的法律用语,日常口语中常根据具体情境改用更普通的说法。不要把 unlawful 误解为“没有规则的”或只指严重犯罪。
    He was charged with unlawful use of a car.
    他被控非法使用汽车。
    The court ruled that the detention was unlawful.
    法院裁定这次拘留不合法。
