Question

apprehend v.理解；忧虑；逮捕；拘押 (1) 我不明白你的意思。(2) 他不能理解变革的真实性质。(3) 你怕有任何困难吗？(4) 这将有助于警察逮捕强奸犯。 The verb apprehend has remained much the same since the original Latin, both in form and meaning. It comes from apprehendere "to grasp or seize." The word came to refer to learning — "grasping or seizing with the mind" — but then came to mean "seize in the name of the law" or "arrest" around the 1540s, a meaning that remains to this day. The word can also be used to suggest an anxious feeling about something about to happen.
