From the word’s history
From Middle English resignacion, from Old French resignation, from Medieval Latin resignātiōnem; resign + -ation.
源自古法文 resignation,就是 resign 加 -ation。
One way to hold it: the noun of letting go. Let go of the post and it is your resignation — the announcement, or the letter itself. Let go of the struggle against something you cannot change and it is the quiet feeling you are left with. Same release, two different things released.
