- 1收受贓物（罪）
In law, receiving is a crime: you take, buy, keep, or help to sell goods that you know were stolen — or that you really ought to have guessed were stolen. The thief takes the laptop; the person who buys it cheap in a car park, knowing the story does not add up, is guilty of receiving. British lawyers also say handling stolen goods, which covers much the same ground and is the name you may meet in modern UK law. In ordinary talk people rarely say “he was done for receiving”; they say he was buying stolen stuff. Though actually, the tidy picture “buying and selling stolen goods” is a little narrower than the law: hiding the goods, or helping to move them, can count too. And this is not the everyday verb: “I am receiving a parcel” is just getting something.
在法律上，receiving 是一種罪，指明知或理應知道是贓物，還收受、購買、保管，或協助出售。小偷偷了筆電，在停車場以便宜價格買下、又明知故事對不上的買家，就犯了收受贓物罪。英國律師也會說 handling stolen goods，範圍差不多，是現代英國法律中常見的名稱。
日常說話多半會說他在買贓貨，不會用 receiving 這個字。「買賣贓物」這種說法比法律範圍窄，藏匿或幫忙搬運也可能算在內。這裡的 receiving 不是日常的動詞，例如「I am receiving a parcel」只是收到包裹。
