1. 1卷宗、檔案(一整套針對某人/某事的資料,常帶機密意味;不是電腦裡的一個檔案)

    A dossier is a set of papers — or, now, a set of files — that gathers detailed information about one person or one subject, often information meant to stay private. Police, journalists, and offices keep dossiers. The word feels serious, even a little secret: “a dossier on someone” sounds like a file that could be used to judge or expose them, not a friendly . English borrowed it whole from French, so it still feels formal and a bit international. In everyday talk people often just say file or record; news and spy stories are fonder of dossier.
