Abet意思

"Abet" 是一個英語動詞，意為鼓勵、幫助或 assist (someone) to do something wrong, especially a crime. 也就是說，它指的是促使或幫助某人做壞事，尤其是犯罪行為。例如：

• He was accused of abetting the robbery. （他被人指控協助了那起搶劫案。）

• The police are investigating who abetted the criminals. （警方正在調查是誰幫助了那些罪犯。）

Abet 也可以用來表示一般意義上的支持或促進某事，但不帶有負面含義。例如：

• The coach abetted the team's victory. （教練幫助了球隊的勝利。）

在法律上，abetting 通常 refers to accessory or accomplice liability, where a person can be held liable for a crime even if they did not directly commit it, but rather helped or encouraged the principal offender.

Abet 源自拉丁語 "abettere", meaning "to drive away" or "to remove," but its meaning has evolved over time to its current usage.
