  • 词义辨析

    sentence, condemn

    这两个词共同的意思是“判处,宣判”。在表示“判处死刑”时,二者可通用; 在表示“判处…年徒刑”时,两者用法不同,用sentence时,年限在前,刑罚在后,用condemn时刑罚在前,年限在后。试比较:
    她被判处8年徒刑。
    She was sentenced to eight years' imprisonment.
    She was condemned to imprisonment for eight years.

    下面两个句子意思相同:

    The judge sentenced the person to three years in prison.
    The judge sentenced the person to three years' imprisonment.
    法官判处这个人三年监禁。

    sentence,condemn,judge,convict,doom

    这些动词都含有“判决、宣判”之意。
    sentence法律用词,指根据罪犯所犯罪行的轻重而宣判处罚。
    condemn指法院对审理结束的案件做出的定罪判刑。
    judge指对案件作出审理判决,但判决内容较笼统,不如sentence和condemn使用广泛。
    convict法律用词,指审判后判定有罪,但未作最后判决。
    doom书面用词,指郑重他宣判某人有罪。
