因為規則而被扣掉、被放到吃虧的位置
登入就可以看這一支怎麼連回核心畫面。
punish, disadvantage · verb · B2
to punish someone, or to treat them in a way that puts them at a disadvantage, often because of a rule or a choice they made.
處罰；使不利
A rule has been broken, and now something is taken away from you because of it — points, money, time, or an advantage you would otherwise have had.
penalize 的核心畫面可以想成「有一條規則在那裡，你踩到了，於是有東西被扣掉」——可能是分數、錢、時間，或是你本來會有的優勢。這個字的重點在「因為某個規則或某個選擇，你被放到比較吃虧的位置」，動作是由有權執行規則的一方做出來的。
