delict(n.)
"违法行为或罪行",在民事法中指轻罪,1520年代,源自拉丁语 delictum "过错,罪行,犯罪",过去分词的中性单数形式,来自 delinquere "失败; 不足; 冒犯",由 de- "完全"(见 de-)和 linquere "离开"(来自 PIE 词根 *leikw- "离开")组成。相关词汇: Delictable "犯罪的,邪恶的",15世纪早期。短语 in flagrant delict 翻译自拉丁语 in flagrante delicto。
Delicts are commonly understood as slighter offenses which do not immediately affect the public peace, but which imply an obligation on the part of the offender to make an atonement to the public by suffering punishment, and also to make reparation for the injury committed The term delinquency has the same signification. [Century Dictionary]
Delicts 通常被理解为轻微的罪行,不会立即影响公共和平,但意味着犯罪者有义务通过承受惩罚向公众赎罪,并为所犯的伤害进行赔偿。术语 delinquency 具有相同的意义。[世纪词典]

deodand(n.)
前英格兰法律中,“因直接导致某人死亡的个人动产被没收并出售,所得款项用于慈善事业”,1520年代起,源于盎格鲁-法语 deodande(13世纪末出现),来自中世纪拉丁语 deodandum,由 Deo dandum 组成,“应给上帝的东西”,由拉丁语 deus(源自 PIE 词根 *dyeu-,“发光”,在相关词汇中指“天空,天堂,神”)和中性发展体介词 dare(源自 PIE 词根 *do-,“给”)构成。废除于1846年。
Thus, if a cart ran over a man and killed him, the cart was by law forfeited as a deodand, and the coroner's jury was required to fix the value of the forfeited property. The pious object of the forfeiture was early lost sight of, and the king might and often did cede his right to deodands within certain limits as a private perquisite. [Century Dictionary]
因此,如果一辆马车压死了一个人,那么这辆马车就会被法律没收为 deodand,谷仓的陪审团需要评估没收财产的价值。没收财产的慈善目的很快就被忽视了,国王可能会经常放弃对 deodands 的权利,将其作为私人特权来行使。 【世纪词典】
