depreciation n.贬值；减价；折旧 (1) 为什么商业中会有资产贬值和坏账？(2) 土地为无折旧的资产。(3) 这种设备的折旧率太高。(4) 去年该公司因机器折旧花了不了钱。 Depreciation is from the Latin word depretiare, which means to lower in price, with the roots de, meaning "down," and pretium, meaning "price." If something goes down in value, then the amount of the decrease is called depreciation. If, for example, you buy a car for $10,000, but a year later it is only worth $8,000 due to wear and tear, then the depreciation on the car is $2,000.
