Question

affidavit n.宣誓书 (1) 费尔福特把宣誓书匆匆看了一遍。(2) 但在东部卫生组织回应这场官司的宣誓书中，误差率实际上远远高于预期。 We get the noun affidavit from the Latin affidare, which means "to pledge." When you state something in an affidavit, you're pledging to the powers that be that you're not lying. The word usually appears in legal settings; if you watch a lot of cop shows or courtroom dramas, it probably rings a bell. "According to the affidavit, Mrs. Smith told police she found the burglar in her closet wearing her most expensive pair of shoes."
