Disputation, as game for teaching logic, was a principal part of the scholastic exercises, and perhaps may still be so in some countries. A master presided, and after a sufficient time decided in favor of one of the disputants, who was then obliged to give his adversary a great thwack with a wooden instrument. [Century Dictionary, 1895]
辩论作为教授逻辑学的游戏,是学术锻炼的主要部分,也许在某些国家仍然如此。一位导师主持,经过足够的时间后,决定支持其中一位辩论者,然后这位辩论者必须用一种木制工具猛击他的对手。[世纪词典,1895年]
