ในแบบทดสอบหลังเรียนบทที่ 7
ข้อ 8.เลือกอถรรลักษณ์ที่คำว่า to kill และ to assassinate ไม่เหมือนกัน
เฉลยข้อ 5.+ผู้ถูกกระทำเป็นผู้มีชื่อเสียง
ในชอยส์ข้อ 4. +ผู้กระทำมีความตั้งใจ
แต่จากหน้า 7-9 ระบุว่า to kill -ผู้กระทำมีความตั้งใจ

รบกวนอาจารย์ตรวจสอบและชี้แจงด้วยค่ะ

Khun Tanatta-u for your questions (Modules 5 to 8). I will explain all of the questions under each topic.

My thoughts here:

With "kill", the action can be intentional or unintentional. That means the entry on page 7-9 for "kill" should really be plus/minus, not just minus. That still makes it different from "murder", which must be intentional (plus only).

Looking at the post-test question, I guess both answers 4 and 5 are correct. However, the distinguishing semantic feature of "assassinate" is really that the victim/object has to be famous, especially in a political context. If we want to distinguish "murder" and "assassinate" semantically, this would be the only difference.

But we are really getting ahead of ourselves now - the semester is just starting!

Dear All,
where do you get this information? I don't have text book yet or it was from d4lp?

The content and the question Khun Teetanatta asked are from the 14215 coursebook. It's also available on D4lP when the module is 'on'.
