- 1嘉獎、表揚（正式記下或公開說的那種，不是朋友口頭誇一句）
A commendation is an official “well done.” It is not just a friend saying you were great. A school, a company, the police, or the army it down — often on paper — to praise someone who was brave or who did a job unusually well. You receive a commendation; you do not usually give one unless you speak for a group. People at work may say “I got a commendation,” meaning a formal note of praise. Though actually, in some places it is a real award with a small ceremony, and in others it is only a polite letter. The tidy picture is a medal for bravery; real life stretches it to any official praise.
組成From Latin commendare (“to praise / to put someone in someone’s care”), through Old French commendacion, then Middle English commendacioun.
