短释义：
The verb detract comes from the Latin word detrahere, meaning “draw away from,” or “take down.” If you detract from someone’s credibility, you reduce — or take down — that person’s worth. When you make valid points opposing an argument a politician is making, you detract from her platform. Detract can also describe drawing attention away from something. If the politician then makes a public display of her humanity, she’s trying to detract attention away from your arguments.
如果你贬低了某件事——比如成就、观点或对象——你就剥夺了它的一些价值或削弱了它。车门上的凹痕可能会降低其整体价值。

动词 detract 来自拉丁词 detrahere，意思是“远离”或“取消”。如果你贬低某人的信誉，你就会降低——或降低——那个人的价值。当你提出有效的观点来反对政客提出的论点时，你就会贬低她的平台。减损也可以描述将注意力从某事上移开。如果政客随后公开展示她的人性，她就是在试图将注意力从你的论点上转移开。
