  • n. 诱拐,绑架;诱导


  • abduction (n.)
    1620s, \\\"a leading away,\\\" from Latin abductionem (nominative abductio), noun of action from past participle stem of abducere \\\"to lead away, take away\\\" (often by force), from ab- \\\"away\\\" (see ab-) + ducere \\\"to lead\\\" (see duke (n.)). The illegal activity so called from 1768; before that the word also was a term in surgery and logic. In the Mercian hymns, Latin abductione is glossed by Old English wiðlaednisse.
