- 1法規、法令(政府正式通過的法律)
A statute is a law that has been written down and officially passed by a government body, like a parliament or congress. It's a more formal, legal word than just 'law' — you'll mostly see it in official documents, news about the government, or legal discussions.
From the word’s history
From Old French statut, from Late Latin statutum, from Latin statuere 'to set up, establish'.
源自古法文 statut,來自拉丁文 statuere「設立、制定」。
