If a right is inalienable, it cannot be taken from you, sold, or given away. People almost always use this heavy, formal word with rights, power, or freedom — in speeches, law, and textbooks, not about a bicycle or a phone. The idea is that some things belong to a person just by being a person. Though actually, even “inalienable” rights get argued over in court; the word names the claim, not a magic shield. You will rarely meet it outside and law.
不可剝奪的（多指權利）
組成Borrowed around 1645 from French inaliénable: in- (“not”) + aliénable (“able to be handed to someone else”). Alienable comes from alien in the old sense “belonging to another.”
