DEEM in Context

"As much as Auburn's Planning Board and mayor would like to wave a magic scepter over swaths of city property and deem them a new zone, it can’t be done that easily." — Pam Larouche, The Sun Journal (Lewiston, Maine), 25 Feb. 2022

“尽管奥本规划委员会和市长想在城区的土地上挥舞魔法，把它认定为一个新区，但它是无法轻易完成的。”

Did You Know?

Originally, deem meant "to legally condemn." The word is still frequently used in contexts pertaining to the law but with the general meaning "to judge" or "to decide after inquiry and deliberation," as in "The act was deemed unlawful" or "The defendant is deemed to have agreed to the contract." Outside of the law, deem usually means simply "to consider."

最初，deem 的意思是“to legally condemn【合法宣判】”。 这个词一直经常用于与法律有关的文件，但却具有“to judge【判断、审判】”或“to decide after inquiry and deliberation【询问和审议后决定】”的含义，像是“The act was deemed unlawful【该法案被视为非法】”或“The defendant is deemed to have agreed to the contract【被告被视为同意该协议被视为非法的】” 在法律外，deem通常指的是“to consider【考虑】”。
