1. 1反對者(conscientious objector 則說「良心拒服兵役者」、「拒服兵役者」)

    An objector is someone who states or shows that they oppose something. It is a slightly formal noun from the verb object, ‘to be against’. You will meet it in meetings, in court, and in news about protests: a few objectors spoke, the plan still passed. The that towers over the rest is conscientious objector: a person who refuses to join the army or to fight, because their conscience, faith, or morals will not allow it. students may already know that idea from talk about military service. An objector is not ‘an objective person’ (someone fair-minded); that mix-up happens because objective and objector look like a pair. They are neighbours in spelling, not in this meaning.

組成Partly from Latin obiectōr, and partly from English object + -or (a person who does the verb).
