demolish
意味: To pull down or destroy a building or structure. Figuratively, to refute or defeat comprehensively.
Demolition is a regulated process in construction, requiring planning permission and careful management of hazards such as asbestos and structural instability. Controlled demolition uses explosives to bring down large structures safely. Figuratively, 'demolish' is used forcefully — a barrister might demolish an argument, a football team might demolish their opponents 6-0, and someone might demolish a plate of food. The noun 'demolition' is equally common.
