  abstention: 棄權

11月22日,德國基民盟領袖安吉拉·默克爾正式宣誓就任二戰(zhàn)后德國第八任總理,她也是德國歷史上首名女總理。外電報道如下:

Lawmakers voted 397 to 202 with 12 abstentions to make Merkel Germany's eighth leader since World War II, succeeding Gerhard Schroeder, whose seven-year government of Social Democrats and Greens was ousted by voters Sept. 18.

報道中的abstention指的是“棄權”,abstention from voting意思就是“棄權不投票”。Abstention有“節(jié)制、克制”的意思,比如:abstention from alcoholic liquors(戒酒);abstention from exerting pressures(不施加壓力)。
