短释义
The original meaning of the noun inducement came from the Latin verb inducere, meaning “to lead or persuade.” Roman philosopher Seneca said, “There is no evil that does not promise inducements. Avarice promises money; luxury, a varied assortment of pleasures; ambition, a purple robe and applause. Vices tempt you by the rewards they offer.” So you can be seduced to bad behavior by some inducements or encouraged to good behavior by others. Would you like a treat?
说服某人做某事的行为称为诱导。如果你正在训练狗,你可能会用食物作为诱因,让狗做你想做的事。这对某些人也有效。

名词induction的原始含义来自拉丁语动词inducer,意思是“引导或说服”。罗马哲学家塞内卡说:“没有一种邪恶是不许诺诱惑的。贪婪许诺金钱;奢华,各种各样的乐趣;野心、紫色长袍和掌声。恶习会通过它们提供的回报来诱惑你。”因此,您可能会受到某些诱因的诱惑而做出不良行为,或受到其他人的鼓励而做出良好的行为。您想请客吗?
