- 1有害的、有不良影響的（書面／學術）
Deleterious means damaging or harmful. It is a formal, often scientific or official word, not a word you throw into chat. Writers like it in front of effect, impact, or influence: a deleterious effect on health, a deleterious impact on the soil. It can name slow harm as well as a sudden blow — something that quietly spoils a body, a habit, or a system. Ordinary English would just say harmful or bad for you; deleterious tells you the speaker is being careful and a little technical. It does not mean “able to be deleted.”
組成Adapted from New Latin dēlētērius / dēlētōrius + English -ous, from Ancient Greek dēlētḗrios (“noxious, harmful”), from dēlētḗr (“a destroyer”), from the verb dēléomai (“I hurt, damage, spoil”). Not from delete.
