- 1不服從、違抗、不聽（某人的話或某條規定）
To disobey is to refuse to do what someone with authority tells you to do, or to refuse to follow a rule or a law. You can disobey a person — a parent, a teacher, an officer — or disobey a rule, an order, a sign. It is on purpose: you heard, you understood, you still did not do it. The word is plain and a little serious. Children hear “Don’t disobey me.” Adults hear it about laws and orders. Though actually, English also lets you disobey things that are not people: a rule, an instruction, even a doctor’s advice. What you cannot do in standard English is add a spare to: not “disobey to someone.”
組成借自古法語 desobeir。英語裡仍看得清楚：dis-（不、相反）+ obey（照吩咐去做）。
