- 1申誡、訓斥。台灣學校和公家機關的「申誡」就是這種正式責備。
To reprimand someone is to tell them, officially, that what they did is very wrong. It is not a parent shouting in the kitchen, and it is not a friend saying “that was stupid.” It is a boss, a school, the army, a club — someone with a position — sitting you down or writing to you, and putting the blame where it will be remembered. The same word is a noun: you receive a reprimand; it may go into a file. The feeling is cold and formal, not hot and noisy. After a reprimand you may still have the job or the place in school, but you have been warned. Stronger than a quiet word; usually weaker than being thrown out. You reprimand a person, not a thing. Younger speakers in casual talk will often just say tell off or ; reprimand belongs to offices, schools, and the news.
組成Does not split in living English. From French réprimande, from réprimer (“to repress,” to hold down or stop).
