沙特阿拉伯國王兼首相薩勒曼21日發(fā)布命令，免去他的侄子穆罕默德·本·納伊夫的王儲、副首相和內(nèi)政大臣職位，任命自己兒子、副王儲、第二副首相穆罕默德·本·薩勒曼為王儲和副首相，并繼續(xù)擔任國防大臣一職。

這條新聞出來以后，“廢黜”這個詞也火了。

廢黜，指罷免或革除官職，也可指取消王位或者廢除特權(quán)地位。這條新聞里的“廢黜”一詞應(yīng)該適用于第二個解釋。我們來看看外媒都是怎么報道這件事的：

Saudi King Removes Crown Prince From Post

沙特國王廢黜王儲

Saudi Arabia’s Deputy Crown Prince Mohammed Bin Salman was promoted to the position of crown prince, replacing his cousin in a surprise announcement that reverberated through the kingdom.

沙特阿拉伯副王儲穆罕默德·本·薩勒曼取代其堂兄被升任為王儲，這條突如其來的消息在沙特全國引起轟動。

縱觀上述幾家外媒的報道，我們不難看出中文報道中的“廢黜”一詞基本來源于oust這個詞。韋氏在線詞典對oust的解釋是：to remove from or dispossess of property or position by legal action, by force, or by the compulsion of necessity(通過法律手段、暴力或者必要的強制措施讓某人從某地或者某個崗位離開);to take away (something, such as a right or authority)(剝奪權(quán)利或權(quán)力) 。

除了oust以外，媒體報道中也頻繁使用了remove、replace等意思相近的表達。英語中表達“罷免”之意的詞匯不少，但是具體用法有所不同，這里簡要給大家列出一些，僅供參考：to replace A with B;to dismiss someone from post;to remove someone from office;to discharge someone from an office or position;to end the employment or service of someone;to relieve someone of one's post等。

沙特阿拉伯的王位繼承人是怎么選出來的?

The founder of Saudi Arabia, King Abdulaziz (known as Ibn Saud), had dozens of sons, and there are as many as 15,000 princes and princesses in the royal family.

沙特阿拉伯的創(chuàng)立者阿卜杜拉國王有20多個兒子，整個王室家族有15000個王子和公主。

In 2006, a decree was passed setting up a committee responsible for electing the king and crown prince. The committee is made up of senior princes of the Al Saud royal family and is known as the Allegiance Council.

2006年沙特通過一項法令，決定設(shè)立一個委員會來專門負責遴選國王和王儲。該委員會被稱為“效忠委員會”，由阿卜杜拉王室家族中的高級成員組成。

Mohammed bin Salman's new promotion to crown prince was approved by 31 out of 34 members of the council.

穆罕默德·本·薩勒曼升任王儲的提議在該委員會的34名成員中獲得了31人的支持。
