短释义：
Tenure from the Latin tenere means “to hold” and refers to the period of time a person works at a particular job or in an office. A president might have to deal with a recession during his tenure in the White House. In university jargon, if you have tenure, you have a permanent teaching position or professorship. In this sense, tenure can also be used as a verb. You’ve got it made if you’re tenured at age 29.
以名词任期表示一个人担任职位或办公室的时间。当你高中毕业时，你作为学生的任期就结束了——当然，除非你继续上大学。

Tenure 来自拉丁语 tenere，意思是“持有”，指的是一个人从事特定工作或在办公室工作的时间段。总统在白宫任职期间可能不得不应对经济衰退。用大学术语来说，如果你有终身教职，你就拥有永久的教学职位或教授职位。从这个意义上说，tenure也可以用作动词。如果你在 29 岁时获得终身职位，那么你就已经成功了。

词源：
tenure (n.)early 15c., “right to hold or use land in exchange for duty or service to a superior; land or property so held,” from Anglo-French and Old French tenure “a tenure, estate in land” (13c.), from Old French tenir “to hold,” from Vulgar Latin *tenire, from Latin tenere “to hold” (see tenet).
The sense of “condition or fact of holding a status, position, or occupation” is attested by 1590s, hence “period during which anything is held.” The meaning “guaranteed tenure of office” (usually at a university or school) is recorded from 1957. Related: Tenured “having guarantee of office” (1961); tenurable (1977); tenurial.Related entries & more
下面是词源的翻译（机器翻译比较难翻，参考着看）
tenure (n.) 15c.早期，“持有或使用土地以换取对上级的职责或服务的权利；如此持有的土地或财产”，源自英法和古法语 tenure “土地保有权、房地产”（ 13c.) 源自古法语 tenir“持有”，源自通俗拉丁语 *tenire，源自拉丁语 tenere“持有”（参见信条）。 “持有某种地位、职位或职业的条件或事实”的含义在 1590 年代得到了证实，因此是“持有任何事物的时期”。 “保证任期”（通常在大学或学校）的含义从 1957 年开始记录。相关：“终身任职”（1961 年）；终身任职（1977）；终身教职。相关条目及更多
