evict
基本释义
[verb] expel (someone) from a property, especially with the support of the law
[动词] （尤指在法律的支持下）将某人从某个房产中驱逐出去
深入解读
Evict 一词源自拉丁语 evincere （战胜并驱逐、征服、制服、彻底击败；取代），与常见单词 victory （胜利）、 convict （证明有罪）、 convince （使确信）等同词根 vict, vinc （征服、克服）。
15世纪中期进入英语后， evict 最初用来表示“通过法律手段或程序收回或追回”财产、产权等。等到了16世纪30年代后， evict 开始发展出今天的主要含义指“驱逐、赶出、逐出”，主要表示通过法律或同等有效的程序将房客、佃户等从房产或土地上驱逐出去，通常是因为不付租金，但也包括因为吸毒、暴力滋事等违法行为，比如：
- 跟你说实话，如果不继续交费，你会被赶出去。
To be candid with you, if you don’t keep up payments you could be evicted. - 那个身材高大的男人因为醉酒及暴力滋事被赶出酒馆。他喝了两杯就醉了。
The hefty man was evicted from the bar for drunken and disorderly behaviour. Two drinks muddled him.
