- 1有害的、招禍的（書面、偏文；日常多半改說有害）
Baneful means evil or very bad in the sense of causing real harm. A baneful idea is not merely a silly one; it can hurt people. You will find this word in books and older writing more than in the street. In everyday talk, harmful or damaging will be understood at once; baneful sounds like a storybook. Because it is built from bane, the picture is "full of bane" — full of the power to spoil or wound. Do not spend it on a disappointing meal. If you use it at all, save it for something ugly in its effect.
組成bane + -ful (full of bane, so full of harm)
