vocabulary简明 To resign is to quit or retire from a position. You can also resign yourself to something inevitable, like death — meaning you just accept that it's going to happen.
vocabulary扩展 When people resign, they're leaving something, like a job or political office. Congressmen resign after a scandal. Coaches resign after a really terrible season. Regular folks simply resign when they're ready to go. In those cases, resign is a nicer way of saying quit. Being resigned is another sense of this word — it's a type of acceptance.

    Usage Note :

    Do not confuse resign and retire. If someone resigns from their job, they leave it after saying that they do not want to do it any more. You can resign from your job at any age, and perhaps start another job soon afterwards. When someone retires, they leave their job and stop working, often because they have reached the age when they can get a pension. When professional sportsmen and women stop playing sport as their job, you can also say that they retire, even if they are fairly young.

    不要混淆resign和retire。resign指辞职,可以发生在任何年龄,也可能很快就开始从事另一个工作。但retire表示退休,是指到了一定的年龄可以领取养老金而停止工作。职业运动员退役,即使年龄还很小,也可以使用retire。
