- 1監督、管理、指導(在旁看著、負責照看)
Supervision is the act of watching over a person or a piece of work to make sure it is done properly and safely. It is uncountable — 'a lot of supervision', 'close supervision', 'without supervision', never 'a supervision' in ordinary use. Two everyday shapes carry most of the meaning: 'under supervision' (someone is watching) and 'under the supervision of + person'. Children swim under supervision; a works under the supervision of a senior nurse. The word covers a wide range of closeness — 'close supervision' means someone is right there the whole time, while 'minimal supervision' means being left to get on with it, and 'works well with minimal supervision' is such a standard line on a CV that employers barely see it any more. Notice it is not the same as bossing people about; supervision includes helping, checking, and being responsible if something goes wrong. In universities it has a narrower use: your thesis supervisor guides your research, and that guidance is your supervision.
From the word’s history
From Latin supervisiō.
源自拉丁文 supervisiō。
組成From Latin supervisio: super- (over) + videre (to see) + -ion (the ending that makes an action into a noun). Literally 'over-seeing' — which is exactly what the plain English word 'oversight' means too.
