民事侵权行为


Definition from Investopedia:
指因作为或不作为而不法侵害他人财产或人身权利的行为。

Example sentence(s):
  • Tort of keeping someone imprison wrongfully. 错误扣押某人的侵权行为。 - Investopedia  

Explanation:
从词义来解释，“tort”是从拉丁语中“tortus”而来，意思是扭曲、不正常。作为法律专用词汇， tort在中世纪的法语中就已经指违反法律了。而且，这一术语带着这一含义最终——通过法国法律语言(古老的普通法法院的语言)—找到了通往英语法律术语的道路。除侵权行为外， tort没有其他含义，即从根本上讲， tort是指违反法律的行为。
