- 1栽贓、構陷、設局(讓無辜的人看起來有罪)
A frame-up is a plan to make an innocent person look guilty. Someone plants fake proof, tells a false story, or tricks the police so that another person takes the blame. You hear it in crime news, films, and everyday talk about unfair treatment; it is informal, not courtroom language. The matching verb is to frame someone (or to frame them up). A person who has been treated this way may say they were framed. People also stretch it a little: a nasty office meant to ruin someone can be called a frame-up even when no crime is involved, though the core idea is still a made-up case against the wrong person.
Frame-up 是一個計畫,目的是讓無辜的人看起來有罪。做法可能是偷偷放假證據、編造假故事,或騙警察,讓別人背黑鍋。這個詞常出現在社會新聞、電影和日常談不公平待遇的場合,語氣口語,不是法庭上的正式用語。
相對應的動詞是 「to frame someone」(栽贓某人),也可以說 「frame them up」;被這樣對待的人可以說 「they were framed」(他們被栽贓了)。這個詞有時會被放寬使用:一個想毀掉某人的惡意辦公室謠言,即使不涉及犯罪,也可以叫 frame-up,不過核心的意思仍是針對錯的人做出一件假的指控。
