- 1劃定（範圍／界限）、界定
To delimit something is to mark, clearly and on purpose, where it starts and where it stops. You can delimit a border on a map, delimit a research topic (this paper will only look at…), or delimit a period of time. It is a formal, academic, and technical word. Everyday limit often means don't let it get too big, or there is a cap. Delimit is closer to drawing the line itself so everyone can see the edges. You will meet it in law, geography, science, and official reports more than in conversation.
組成From French délimiter, from Late Latin dēlīmitō (“to mark out the limits”), from dē- + līmitō (“to limit, to bound”). The English piece you can see is limit.
