今天是個重要的日子,為期8個月的衣索比亞與國內提格雷地區內戰終於劃下句點,這場造成至少千人死亡、超過300萬人流離失所的戰爭,除了殃及雙方無辜百姓,也引起國際人權組織高度關注。


☑️ ceasefire (n.) (通常指永久性的)停火,停戰


📖 an agreement to stop fighting a war for a period of time so that a permanent agreement can be made to end the war


#️⃣ ceasefire 是兩個字組成的:cease 當作動詞代表停止,終止的意思,fire就是火,合在一起就變成的停戰、停火,同義詞還可以用truce 當名詞表示停火來表達,常用的搭配動詞還有 negotiate/broker a unconditional ceasefire 協調一個無條件停戰



===== 延伸單字有:=====


☮️truce (n.)停火


☮️negotiate/broker an unconditional ceasefire 協調一個無條件停戰

===== 本集的必備例句 =====


The Ethiopian government has declared a ceasefire in the Tigray region - eight months after Prime Minister Abiy Ahmed sent troops to oust its leadership. – BBC, 29 June, 2021 (在總理Abiy Ahmed派軍隊推翻提格雷地區領導權八個月後,衣索比亞政府宣佈在提格雷地區停戰。)
