意味

誘惑（すること）

Functions as both verb (to tempt) and noun (temptation/allure). Distinguished from 吸引 (attract) by implying an element of resistance to overcome — something that pulls against one's better judgment or self-control. Common in moral, psychological, commercial, and literary contexts. Can describe both negative temptations (corruption, vice) and benign allure (the temptation of a dessert).

例文

2. 人类大脑偏好即时奖励，所以面对眼前利益的诱惑时，人们常难权衡长远后果。
3. 在腐败已成常态的环境里，拒绝诱惑不只是道德问题，也是要付出职业和安全代价的选择。
